Less alcohol, more sleep,baby steps wrt exercise . Stairs. Healthy breakfast, salads for lunch, early dinners (veggies, lean meat, low carb). 3-4 litres of water everyday. Green tea. Thats a good start

I made it four years w the following - take it for what it's worth:
1- Hotel gym in the evening day 1, and in the morning days 2, 3, and 4. I did one hour a day. Others do more or less.
2- A salad massive enough to ward off afternoon snacking for lunch
3- No more than two drinks a night (to make sure I sleep well enough to wake up to work out).

@EY2- I suppose I meant low carb diet not no carb diet. I did keto. And admittedly anecdotal and I'm not nutritionist, but it def worked for me 💯 you're probably right long term though.

Examples of good carbs: steel cut oatmeal, whole-grain bread, vegetables, beans, lentils.

@BCG1- dont agree with you. Definitely need good carbs in your diet or else you will never feel full/satiated. Proteins are not the one-stop-answer. It's a myth. Having said that, a balanced diet with 30-40% proteins, 20-30% carbs, 15-20% fibre and ~10-% good fats will go a long way and help you remain fit healthy and active. The solutions should be sustainable. NO carb diet is never sustainable.
