    Yes, having a plan and sticking to your plan is what helps get us to achievable goals. When I thought about making a dietary change in 2020, like going plant based, I didn't make a big, immediate change. I started with the plan to eat more vegetables at every meal and more veggies each and every day. That meant I needed to plan breakfast that had a vegetable for me to eat. Lunches I took to work, same thing: I needed a non starchy vegetable. The big change was to quit going out to eat and of course, as it was 2020 and early 2021, the virus and closures meant that was not such a big deal to quit eating out after all.

    Then came the learning process of how to make dinners and other meals that were not centered around meat. Yes, that was the most wondrous learning. I appreciated the wonderful flavors of grains and legumes and other plant food mixed together to make a delicious dish. Not cooking with oil was freedom, as was not buying meat and cooking meat. I started in October 2020. By November, meat and eggs were not consumed anymore. It took until early February to kick cheeses to the curb. So then, voila! I was eating whole food, plant exclusive and I haven't regretted any of the changes I made.

    Adding in and making physical movement a priority was also meaningful when I found movement I loved to incorporate into my everyday life. Small changes done over time multiply!

    Great video! I’m sharing with a few friends 💗. I did reset my focus at the end of the year after enjoying the holidays and the treats they bring. 1/1/2024 I was back on strict SOFAS free meals. Planning is always key for us. And, we both want to add more exercise this year. Not as a resolution, but a next step in our health journey.

    I also don't like using the word resolution, I prefer to say I have a goal for the new year. When you say goal you normally have a plan attached on how you are going to do it. My goal this year is to have oil -free days. I have seen people who give up oil all together and they look horrible, their skin has lost elasticity so I am not going to give up oil but I want to drastically cut it down and I want to work on getting it naturally from foods like avocados and nuts etc.

    When I quit smoking some 40 years ago, I would go 5 minutes at a time without a cigarette. I basically 5 minute’d myself out of smoking 2.5 packs of cigarettes a day addiction. Doing small steps test are achievable is so much more reasonable. My husband could just stop and not look back, but I sometimes think he is not human!

    Absolutely, have some goals but more importantly, a plan to achieve them. Break it down into steps if you need to. Do a weekly review and maybe write down something or a few things you need to concentrate on next during the coming week to make your plan work. It is a great organizational tool, but also good for things like this because you are basically organizing your way of eating. Happy New Year to both of you and Lex! Sounds like it's going to be a good one.

    Love this one! I am trying to stick with the starch solution eating vegetables first. How do you feel about coffee? I am drinking 2 to 3 cups of Black 1/2 caf coffee in the morning . No soda or juices . My weight has crept up over the last year. How does one check thier metabolism?

    After getting covid in 2020 I ended up with chronic fatigue. 3 years later I discovered that I was low on iodine, due to my compromised immune system my body needs more iodine. After supplementing with iodine for 30 days I broke out of my chronic fatigue. I still have a ways to go but I am getting better
