A friend is his early 50's is struggling with weight as well. Our food is the enemy, everything on the shelves is making us sicker. Granted, poor choices are part of it. Hiw does someone who barely has time to make a sandwich turn it around?

We all make choices.... early 50s he has a very good chance of turning it around. I was in the same mess. The doc looked into my eyes and said I would have a massive heart attack by 60.
I ate whole vegetables for a month, mostly cooked, but some raw. No sugar, so soda, no fast food. Took my lunch to work after I made it the night before.
I began to walk while it was cool weather. Everyday it got better. Lost 20 lbs the first month and 15 lbs the second month, within 6 months I was down 50 lbs. Yes, I messed up at times, but got back at it. I think it was the 4th month I added protein back in.... chicken and fish. When I went back to the doc I didn't have an issue with my blood sugar or cholesterol. Our bodies are machines, they need fuel. Your choice on what that is.
Amen. All those Ultra Processed Foods are like gasoline. Low Octane when our bodies need the High Octane sort of fuel to keep us going while doing our bodies good.
