I want to cook things that taste good and are actually healthy

You estimate how many calories your body needs to maintain its weight, and you just plan accordingly. If you want to get super autistic about it you can get a scale and weigh and account for every ingredient you use, or you can eyeball it and just kind of guess. Then just check your weight week to week to see if there's any trend, if you're consistently gaining weight then just adjust what you eat. It's important to also pay attention to calories you drink and eat between meals because it's easy for people to forget about them.

Thank you very much

This. That is literally it. Spend an hour figuring out what macronutrients and TDEE are, as well as the splits/intake of some foods you like. It will be eye opening.

>I don't have much time to exercise
You need to find 3 hours a WEEK. That is nothing you prolly spend 3 hours masturbating a week. Make the time, it isn't hard.

Go find a QTDDTOT on /fit/ and read the sticky if you actually want to get healthy.

Here is a simple trick OP. If you are eating something high in calories like your picture then do not eat a lot of it. If you are eating something low in calories then feel free to have lots.

When you feel hungry, your body is burning fat. So retrain your brain, embrace that feeling and turn it into a positive feeling and you will lose weight and join the normal people again.

Then why do I feel no hunger while working my 8 hour shift and only eat a light dinner with no breakfast or lunch but when I have a day off and sit around doing nothing I am starving all the time?

I think it's literally because you're distracting yourself from hunger when you're working
