If you think of exercise as a 60-minute commitment 3 times a week at the gym you're missing the point completely. If you think that going on a diet has something to do with nutrition you don't see the forest through the trees. It is a lifestyle. I know it sounds cliche but you have to find things you love to do.
In nature nothing is perfect and everything is perfect. Trees can be contorted bent in weird ways and they're still beautiful.
