Quitting alcohol later in life felt like finding the fountain of youth. I wish I had done it years ago, but it's never too late.

I agree. I'd also say that my Fitbit played a big role. The biometrics clearly showed how alcohol was affecting my health.

Reducing carbs and junk food is one thing, but consuming something that's linked to a hundred chronic health issues is never a good idea.

I lost 40 pounds just by cutting out weekday drinking, without counting calories. I've been counting calories for most of my life, so I have a pretty good idea of what I eat daily. The weight literally fell off in about 4 months, and I've been maintaining it for another 4.

I'm cutting out as much added sugar as I can while still staying sane, in favor of whole foods. I usually eat less than 20g of added sugar every day, down from about 100-200g before.

More fiber. Especially fruits - helps my digestion.

Lifting weights led me to eat more protein, which made me feel fuller with fewer carbs. This helped me lose belly fat, feel better, and become stronger.
