If food occupies your thoughts all day, something is wrong.
Not with you, but with the approach.
Nutrition should free mental bandwidth.
Not consume it.
⸻
Decision Fatigue Is the Silent Killer of Consistency
Every food decision costs energy.
What to eat. When. How much. Is this allowed.
By evening, the system collapses.
This isn’t lack of discipline.
It’s cognitive overload.
⸻
Why Variety Becomes a Trap
Unlimited choice feels empowering.
In practice, it creates friction.
Men who eat well long-term rely on repetition.
Not boredom.
Efficiency.
⸻
Defaults Create Freedom
Eating well without thinking requires:
• Repeating meals
• Simple portion rules
• Pre-decided options
• Clear fallback foods
Once decisions are removed, execution becomes automatic.
⸻
Nutrition Should Fade Into the Background
The goal isn’t perfect eating.
It’s dependable eating.
Food supports life.
It shouldn’t dominate it.
