Started corporate life and completely lost my gym/diet routine. Need advice

AskDelhi

Hey everyone,
I’ve recently started working in a corporate setup straight out of my master’s, and I’m honestly struggling to adjust.
I used to be a regular at the gym and was pretty disciplined with my routine, but now my office commute is Gurgaon to Noida and back, and by the time I get home I’m completely drained. I have almost no energy left to work out or even think properly about food.
What’s happening lately is that as soon as I reach home, I just look for comfort in food. I end up ordering random stuff or snacking way more than I should and just keep stuffing my face because it feels good in the moment after such a tiring day. The guilt comes later.
The weird part is that even on weekends, when I technically have time, I still don’t feel like going to the gym. I just feel bored, low on motivation, and kind of stuck in this cycle of work, commute, food, and doing nothing.
Has anyone here gone through this phase after starting a corporate job? How did you get out of it?
