1. I only carry a little extra weight

Technically, I'm in the normal range - but this last year I put on 10 pounds - so I feel out of balance.

In the past two weeks, I've purposefully I've taken off 5 and am starting on the other 5. Sucks. But these studies (and others) have me convinced that the older I am - the more attentive I need to be. I think to keep it off, I'm going to go 'mostly' vegan (cheese is the food I really need to give up). I've stopped buying it - and tbh, we don't miss it.

I might still have milk and cheese when I'm out and about. Just not at home.
