    Find a way to make it easier to do. I wanted to eat healthier, I started ordering meal kits so I can cook healthy meals more easily. I wanted to exercise more, I bought an exercise bike and use it while watching TV and movies

      I don’t like purposeless exercise. So all my exercise has a purpose. I garden, do yard work, bike to work, paddle for pleasure. Life doest have to be suffering, just need to find what motivates you.

      this is great advice and I try to follow it too, but it’s worth noting that all the examples you gave cost a fair amount of money

        I got the bike cheap through Facebook marketplace. Even if you do spend a lot of money on it, at least you only have to spend it once. In the long run, if you use it long enough, it’s cheaper than a gym membership.

        Buying meal kits is an ongoing expense but so is any type of food
