Besides making healthier nutritional choices and exercising more in 2021, there are some other things that absolutely have to happen for any permanent change for me.
1) Time to give up the diet soda habit for good. This stuff is like a drug for me, and I think it screws up my chances to stay healthy. I’m committing to water or nothing in 2021 (or wine - a glass or 2 each week)
2) Better sleep schedule. I can get by with4-5 hours, but that doesn’t mean that’s optimal or healthy. And based on previous attempts to lose weight, if I’m not getting enough solid sleep, the weight doesn’t come off even if I’m eating right and exercising
3) Flexibility is as important now as muscle - I’m getting stiffer each year and it’s starting to affect my golf game and overall enjoyment of life. Yoga and stretching are going on the daily schedule
