I created a couple weekly menus and a grocery list for each one. It is much easier to just take the list and buy the right stuff because I don’t have to think much about it. Have been doing this for several months and it is working.

I can definitely say I have made progress. Eating some vegetarian meals weekly, using a dietician program to plan nutritious meals. Not perfect but better than a year or two ago.
I have a vegetarian meal at least once per week. But I lost track of this goal for a while. I need to have less (bad) fat in my diet and more fibre (vegetables).
I have been making vegetarian lunches from 2 cookbooks I bought 2nd hand. Also discovered smoothies made with fruit, yogurt and soymilk. Amazing. Unfortunately I’m eating wasabi chips now, but they say they have no trans fats.
Got some vegetarian cookbooks, did one day without meat. But now I feel dizzy. Not sure why.
I am trying to learn more vegetable based/vegetarian recipes. Will consider this goal done when I am using these on a weekly basis.
I tracked my protein, carbs and fats for one day, using charts in a nutrition textbook. I ate as recommended (60% of calories from carbohydrates, 10% from protein and 30% from fat), eating fruits and vegetables as much as possible, 3 meals the same size. By noon I had way more energy than usual. It was a lot of work but it feels worth it.
