I've tried a lot of different ways to get healthier. First of all, I've made an effort to exercise daily. After work, I went to the neighborhood to walk. I have also occasionally trained at home. Additionally, I have made an effort to consume more healthful foods and avoid fast food. In addition, I haven't had any alcohol in almost ten years. I do these things to stay in shape. How about you, guys? Image Credit: png.pngtree.com

I see my doctor(s) regularly, eat good foods in moderation and take my prescribed medications twice a day. I'm losing weight and staying engaged with friends on myLot... I don't avoid the things I like such as candy or fast foods. Avoiding those only opens you up to binging. Keeping the things you love in your diet in moderation helps you to maintain the diet and continue losing weight.

I agree. I learned this concern while practicing intermittent fasting. As for me, it is an effective one to keep healthy.

@DaddyEvil I am also feeling the same way. When I was young, I do not need to care about my weight. When I started to gain weight, I was alarmed and decided to do something about it.

@Shavkat I haven't weighed myself for this month yet but since May, I've lost a total of 40 lbs, so far... My doctor was happy with this amount when I saw her a few weeks ago. I am happy losing this much weight.

I eat a lot of fruit. Most significantly, I lost 60-65 pounds over three years, which has helped tremendously. I never smoked and I don’t drink (don’t like the taste). And, like you, I make an effort to exercise — usually walking — daily.

I also experienced this before. I only ate fruits and bread during my medical mission in Tajikistan in 2010. In just one year, I lost around 15 kilograms.

I am conscious of what I eat and see that I sleep well and do a bit of mild exercise

This is what we need to consider in our life. It is better to be in a healthy living than to feel sorry in the end.

It all started during the pandemic. With that situation, I continue to keep myself as fit as a fiddle.

you eat all your veggies & leave the fast foods alone along with the sweets & get plenty of rest & fresh air that helps the body more than you know.

I can agree more. Lately, I have been doing intermittent fasting. It is a good way not to hunger myself while trying to lose weight. I must say that it is an effective one.
