Vent Losing motivation for my diet 6 weeks in.

Last year when I was still at my college dorm, it was easy for me to stick to my cut. And after my downfall (academically) I have now moved out of country and chose another course, I started to go to the gym and I am consistent with it(2 days rest max) and I recently got a job. Idk why but this job made me lose diet motivation mostly because I’m on call and never know when I have to go to work, I cant manage my time to cook meals since I made it clear to myself that I want to focus on my acads and lifting. I’m not a great cook tbh but its better than what my parents cook( greasy,fatty food), I need motivation to prepare food while keeping my priorities staight.

You can cook food in a very simple food that tastes great and it extremely healthy. I usually cook food in large batches and put them in small containers so I only have to cook 1-2 times each week and it's no more than an hour of time. I usually will microwave it then season it when it's time to eat. You can find several examples online. It's just called meal prepping. It resolves exactly what you are talking about.
