"The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second-best time is now."

This quote slips into my mind often, especially when I'm thinking about taking better care of myself.

Would it have been better to start a weight-bearing exercise routine 20 years ago? Of course. But the next best time to start is today. The real question is: what will it take to begin—and to keep going? Maybe it’s setting my clothes out the night before, going to bed earlier, or simply committing to just 10 minutes a day to start. Creating a new routine always takes thought and intention—but the rewards are always worth it.

The same is true when it comes to how we eat.

Do you want to eat in a way that fuels your body, gives you energy, and supports long-term health? Maybe you have high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, or high cholesterol—and you want to turn things around. Or maybe you’re tired of dieting in order to lose weight, tired of restriction, and ready for a sustainable way of eating that you can actually enjoy.

I understand. I’ve been there. I felt lost for years until I discovered the Mediterranean Diet.

Backed by science and full of flavor, the Mediterranean Diet is more than just a way of eating—it's a lifestyle that has helped thousands of people (myself included) improve their health, lose weight, and feel better every day. That’s why I’m sharing our Ultimate Guide to Eating the Mediterranean Diet—so you can get started today.

So I’ll ask you just one question: When will you begin?

Let this be the start of something lasting.

Be well,
