Eating fruits and veggies, making her own salad dressings, and drinking over 70 ounces of water per day while tracking her water intake with a water bottle helped her feel full and cut down on bloating. Doing light running and swimming exercises frequently made her more comfortable with the lifestyle change.

This shift in mindset made her far more likely to stick with it, which translated into a sustained improvement in her health.
