I know there are a lot of fad diets and then there is calorie counting as a more science based approach. I myself do calorie counting and follow a strict diet in order to avoid overeating. How do you eat all day, you follow a system?

Eat a variety of foods and eat what makes your body feel good. Eat an amount that maintains your healthy weight. But the most important part is finding the motivation to control your intake.
Also meditate to cultivate awareness of how your body feels. Especially if you’re a man because culturally (and possibly biologically) men tend to be cut off from their feelings.
💯 I'm closing in on 40m and I'd be in a world of pain if I hadn't started listening to my body. I had a "bad back" and got sucked into going to a chiropractor for years. One day I realized they weren't going to fix anything and it was up to me to figure out why I hurt and make it better. I'm largely pain free now, because I started taking the time to listen instead of "just power through it".
I also lost 70lbs and have maintained a healthy weight for a decade without a "diet", aside from what I said in my original post. Shit food made me feel like shit, but I didn't want to listen...
