How long will it take me to start pulling the same weight that

That happens to a lot of people so don't feel too bad, and congratulations on trying to take control of your health again.

This might not be the answer you want, but the good news is "it's faster to regain natural gains you already had than breaking new ground."

So the answer is faster than it took you to reach those gains in the first place.

I have similar concerns as well:

I've been both working and studying full time for closer to a year now, ran into some financial problems as well, so needless to say my body is devastated and also my mind to some extent. I basically stopped eating and developed mild alcoholism, also smoking a pack or two a day. Lots of trouble sleeping. To combat that stress, I chase highs and resort to overt, compulsive behavior

I'm slowly starting to get a chance to get back to the gym, and later this year I will focus on my studies only so I'll have much more time for gym and I don't want to fuck this up

How do I get back to good habits, especially eating? These days I have zero motivation to eat, except some processed shit in a hurry - I can go days without eating. This really concerns me, and to be honest, I've never been a great eater.

How should I get back to the gym routine? Just the thought of how much strength I've lost terrifies me and causes anxiety on its own.

Any advice appreciated

First you gotta reach the 100% of your 100%
