Have always had to watch the BP with the FAA Pilot Medical required every 6 months, but since we’ve always been into healthy eating and exercise, it hasn’t been much of a problem–even now, that I’m in my 50’s.

We all indulge in our favorites once in awhile, but, as has been mentioned, simply eating “real food” on a regular basis, and watching portions, is a good place to start. You should be fine if you just watch a few things, scaredy.

Speaking of indulgences, when eating out, +1 on Sammy’s and Souplantation with the Red Velvet Lava Cake (when they have it.) + Phil’s BBQ. We also like Donovan’s once in awhile, as well as Truluck’s, The Market Restaurant, Fidel’s Little Mexico, The Shores, Del Mar Rendezvous, etc., in the San Diego area. Other cities, other options.
