    I lost a bunch of weight and very carefully watch the scales every day to make sure I don’t get carried away again, sometimes having to eat very lightly for a few days when it creeps up.

    Did wonders for my blood sugar, cholesterol, and liver. Unfortunately it means I’m just a touch hungry most days.

    Also moderate exercise, a bit of aerobic exercise most days, but not too much. Park far away to make myself walk more in daily activity.

    Don’t sweat the small stuff.

    E.g. Someone cut you off? Who cares. Just slow down and drive safe. You’re only going to end up being 10-30 seconds behind them overall anyway.

    I eat relatively healthy, and I stretch well more-or-less every day, but to be honest that’s about it.

    I would like to smoke less and drink less - they aren’t issues in that sense, I’m just getting older and it’s obviously getting worse for and harder on my body. I also need to get back to the gym or something, it’s been years 😅 it’s just hard to find time with kids and a demanding job, and I haven’t prioritized it.

    Drink too much, work too much, eat a diet consisting mostly of cheese and carbs. Stay in half-decent shape by putting in 14-hour days at a physical job.

    Basically just circling the drain.

    Walk or run or hike in a natural environment nearly every day. It might be early or late but I go nearly every day for at least a few miles.

    I have a headlamp and a flashlight with a fuck-you-ultra-bright strobe mode for when it’s dark and I don’t worry about animals (quadruped or otherwise).

    Used to be a competitive body builder, that’s not healthy let me tell you. Now I lift weights for the physical and mental health and don’t trash my body. About 5 hours a week in the weights room, and a 30 min walk every day keeping my heart rate around 120bpm, eat pretty decently.

    Try not to stress to much over most things, do stuff I enjoy, and always learning something new.
