Go to the gym and lift weights. I cannot reccomend this enough.

It's within your control. Results happen reasonably quickly. The opposite sex will be more attracted to you. It gives you purpose. You will feel a sense of accomplishment. It will create structure. You will start thinking about what you eat. It's reasonably cheap. It will prompt you to drink less.

I could go on and on.

I used to... until I moved, where I really struggle to now because the closest gyms are like 20m drive away and my parents already have a lot to do as they own a business, "Knot just Plane Wood" for some free promo but like I had to quit rugby 2x a week because of it already. I was going to go on Saturday but I'm usually working 1000 until ~2300 most Saturdays and Sundays my parents want to keep for a "family day"... despite not doing anything that day...

Ask for some weights then.
You don’t need a gym to exercise. Go run. Do push-ups, sit-ups, burpees, mountain-climbers, bicycle kicks, squat/curl a bag full of books...plenty of workouts that can be done at home.

This definitely sounds like the thing that’s missing in your daily routine.

And there are YouTube videos to help you in your workout. Use things just sitting around your house as weights.

You, on Saturday: hey, guys, what’s on the agenda for tomorrow? Nothing? Ok, well then I’ve got some stuff I want to do myself.

aw man, Im sorry you had to quit rugby. I feel like a good hour of tackling would really help this situation.

It was amazing, loved most of the people there too and I was a pretty good player but I understand you obviously have to make sacrifices sometimes.
