Yes, trying to live a healthy lifestyle is definitely an uphill battle in many (probably most) areas. I think the part the pisses me off the most is when I'm trying hard to get my kid to eat well, and he suddenly has to deal with a chocolate craving because of a commercial he saw on television. Or some parent yells out "Who wants ice cream!?" after soccer, at 8pm, when he's supposed to be sleeping an our later.

What is "toxic gym culture" though? I've been to gyms off and on for months at a time in different cities (and countries) and all I see are people trying to become stronger, or lose weight, usually with headphones on minding their own business.
