Serious answer: see a dietitian if you can.
I've seen two (good) dietitians in my life: the first time around, it was because I've always liked going to the gym, but never really had a good physique - figured the diet was to blame. The second time, it was because I really let myself go during my PhD (because PhD) and (my wife and) I slimmed back down in a very health manner.
All the good dietitians took into consideration my typical diet (a vegetarian Mediterranean diet, for the most part), so it was really easy to follow their instructions. The one bad experience I had was with a woman who wanted me to go vegan. And, let's face it, I'm already pretty annoying the way I am, no need to take one extra step
Cheese is love. Cheese is life.

Reminds me of something a very good Ukrainian friend of mine told me: even as her dad and friends were under fire in Kyiv, they couldn't believe it was really happening, because it was completely off their radar (despite the frozen conflict since 2014). I remember reading back in early February that, according to a survey by a Foreign Policy author, 61% of Russia experts thought there'd be an invasion - so even 39% of people whose job it is to understand the inner workings of the Kremlin failed to see it coming.
Even Russians seem to be dumbstruck by this advance, so it's no wonder the general public seems to have fallen for the Kremlin version of the conflict hook, line and sinker. Hell, most Brazilians I know seem to be pro-Russia (this is just an impression, I wish there was a poll to prove me wrong though).
