Diet -Cook most of my meals -No soda, little dairy -More Greens -Fewer carbs, more fat, more protein

Exercise -Strength Training 5x/ week -Walk ~2 miles/day

Notes on the above:

Try to make little changes in your diet vs. large ones. Pick out one or two things you would like to eat less of and actively try to reduce.

Cooking your own meals gives you a huge amount of control over what you eat (the individual ingredients) and how it tastes. I never thought I would enjoy cooking as much as I do.

If you've never done strength training before, don't be afraid to pick something that looks interesting to you and jump in. Crossfit, 5x5 lifts, whatever. Just get to a gym and start consistently doing something.

Mental well-being is still something I should work on. When I take the time to meditate, it is worth it.
