I'm doing 4 things
I bought a digital piano last year, and Carl Humphries’ “Piano Handbook”. I’m teaching myself, making slow but sure progress.

I did it! I’m back to 165, after more than two months of mindful eating and excercising. (I actually lost 13 lbs, because I had gained 3 after I set this goal.)
I’m now going to lose 10 more—down to 155, which is really what my weight should be, given my height.
To anyone who’s struggling with this goal: it CAN be done. Be patient. Be consistent. Be conscious of when and what (and how much) you eat. It’s hard work, but it’s worth it!
I’ve managed to work a 15 min meditation session into my daily routine. It’s become second nature for me to do this first thing in the morning, when my mind is still relatively clear.
Now I’m going to work towards longer sessions and participating in retreats.
