The Truly Personalized Plan For Me...with input from my doctor, my trainer, a nutritionist, and a lot of serious reading on the subject.

After doing a LOT of research and working with my paid health staff (ha), this is what I'm going to do:

Eating Plan

• Follow the Mediterranean Diet and track portions.

This means:

• Three meals a day
• 50% of the meal must be fresh fruits and/or vegetables
• Limit red meat to every two weeks.
• Fish at least twice per week.
• Swap butter for healthy fat, but use in limited amounts.
• Severely reduce sugar (no drinking sugar).
• No more than 1 glass of wine per day.
• Very limited processed food.
• Take fish oil.
• Try the apple cider vinegar thing (jury is out on if this works for anything).

Tracking through My Fitness Pal, no more than 1200 calories per day.

Exercise Plan

• Go to the gym a minimum of three days a week. 

Mind

• Fire up the meditation aps.
• Blogging
• Explore why I eat
• Explore other ways I can nurture myself (this part is the hoaky part).
