Do you guys have any tips for someone that doesn't like exercise, but they have to anyways?

I have recently started my fitness journey, and the trajectory is towards fat loss. Any tips?
I've been on this weight loss journey for a while now, but man, keeping it consistent is a struggle. Some weeks I'm on top of it—eating clean, working out, feeling good. Then, boom!

Importance of Protein and my goal?
So, I have my goals set on my app telling me I have a protein of 84 kg. But I always hear more protein is better for both muscle growth and weight loss. So, should I be aiming to keep this at that rough number it's giving me or does it matter if I go over?
Weight loss without, or with limited, physical activity.
Hi there. I've struggled with weight loss over the last 3-4 years, mostly due to medical/physical health issues. As a result, the amount of physical activity I could do is limited to none.

Early morning weigh-in after big protein dinner
Hi everyone! If I had a big protein dinner by 18:20 is it best that I don't eat anything else so that I don't sabotage tomorrow's early morning weigh-in and cancel out any incidental activity/exercise I've done earlier today?
