Assuming most telugites eat rice, how are you folks staying fit and avoiding belly fat? Any tips?

I eat two meals a day. 11 am and 7 pm. I don’t snack in between (some people call it intermittent fasting but I don’t). Weekly one day I fast, that day I just eat once at 6 pm. Largely vegetarian. No workouts, just walk sometimes.

All vitals are in the range. Just turned 40.

Two things:
1. Shift to brown rice
2 eat only 3/4th full (growing up, grand mom always used to tell this)

Been at 170 Lbs (6’2’’) and didn’t gain a pound since shifted to brown rice 5 years ago.

Fortunately no belly fat. I used to play soccer and club cricket regularly and that probably helped too. I had too many injuries and stopped playing a couple of years ago but took up running. Perhaps, food alone is not the solution and a good mix of diet and exercise is? Also, I don’t believe in taking fat-free foods but take them in natural form (e.g whole milk, whole yogurt), which makes me conscious about needing to burn that fat and prompts me to engage in some form of exercise.

I have been trying this cold therapy not for fat loss but for my mental well-being. I usually do 30 secs on and off for 3-4 times in shower and not sure if it is placebo effect but I instantly feel really good. Andrew Huberman has several podcasts on this topic if anybody is interested.

I recently got diagnosed with ADHD. I'm 31 and found this only because b school and post mba consulting job was/is much more challenging than anything I did before. What I'm confused about is that even as a teenager I could read entire books overnight. But the last two years of high school I started selectively zoning out and the problem has become worse since. I just realised it now. My doctor has suggested treating depression (I was also unaware of this) with Wellbutrin first (contd)

It’s hard to be motivated when rounds of layoffs happen and you see all your friends leave. But one thing that’s gotten me through all of this is working out. And when I say workout I mean the most pathetic, sad, barely completed beginner-level cardio dance routines. I’ve somehow forced myself to move while on lockdown and it’s somehow forced me to feel better. Whatever you’re doing, wherever you are: get up and move even if you don’t finish or end up going on a walk. Pls take care of yourself❤️

I immediately felt demotivated as to ‘why now’ after all rounds have been cleared (continued in the comment below)
