Everyone does it in a different way, how do you do it?

    I eat clean 95% of the time, with one restaurant meal out per week most weeks (1/21 ≈ 5%), and I try to make that meal out reasonably healthy (e.g., grilled salmon, limited beer). I cook most meals from whole foods, including some veggies I’m growing in my garden (sooooo much yellow squash right now!). I try to get 125g protein and 25g fiber daily and limit my calories, sugar, and saturated fats. I drink at least 64oz water daily.

    I weightlift heavy 3 times a week, plus I’ve recently added rebounding for cardio. I also try to stretch on my non-lifting days (lifting days have stretching built in).

    I have a set routine every night before bed that helps me wind down - skincare, hair bonnet, lotion on feet/knees/elbows/hands, take my progesterone, and read my kindle until the sleepiness kicks in.

    Despite the bedtime routine, I’m not a great sleeper anymore, so I take naps whenever I need them. My fitbit tells me that’s 32% of days haha.
