I was a VP on the road three weeks a month, eating out every night. I climbed past 250 pounds. For ten years I tried Whole30, Atkins, paleo, keto and low carb. Every one worked until a holiday, a work trip or a birthday knocked me off, and I'd tell myself, "I'll start Monday."
On January 1, 2026, I didn't look for a better diet. I built a better structure around one I enjoy. Eleven months later I'm down 60 pounds, from 242 to about 180, without GLP-1s. (My personal results. Yours will depend on you, your health and your method.)
1. Weekly targets, not daily pass/fail. Five workouts, seven days to get them done. One rough day doesn't sink the week.
2. Make-up days, not quitting. Missed a workout? Make it up that same week instead of waiting for Monday.
3. Track what keeps you honest. Food, steps, workouts. Simple tracking turns guessing into knowing.
Most nutrition and fitness plans work. Keeping them going is the hard part.
Nutrition: keto and low carb, carnivore, macros and flexible eating, plant-based. Training: strength, walking and cardio, home workouts. Plus habits after 40 and staying on track on the road. My videos cover how to make whichever you choose fit busy, real life.
