Exercise: Find a form of exercise that you enjoy and do it regularly. I am enjoying "zumba" classses. You can try kickboxing, martial arts, swimming, dancing, tennis, biking. Whatever seems fun so you can keep it up!

Follow the following: Exercise most days of the week (aerobic work), eat fruits and vegetables liberally, limit saturated fats, increase fish and fish oil intake, have fiber with each meal, keep your weight in check, don't smoke at all or drink excessively (one or two drinks weekly). Sleep 6-9 hours nightly on a regular schedule.
