Especially if I leave this to the point when I’m sitting in the metro, it’s really hard still.

How I did it: I found a dance that I like and after that exercising almost daily became easy and pleasurable. Since I started I've been dancing maybe 6h a week, and been looking forward to it, too. Read how I did it…
How I did it: Lessons, once or twice a week, free dancing whenever possible. Practicing is really important. Making mistakes is not a big deal. So just dance, even when you think you cannot yet. Read how I did it…
How I did it: First one day at the time. Just not buying. Remember that you can still ask for candy, and eat if offered, just not buy.It got easier soon, and the last handful of months were really easy. Read how I did it…

What helped most was doing it at the same ‘time’ in my morning routine, in my case either at home before leaving or in the metro. Meditating in the metro was much much harder, by the way.
To me, loving a person means caring for their wellbeing/happiness roughly as much as my own. (Maybe a bit more, a bit less, the same. Or a lot more… but that would be the self-sacrificing kind.)
