Well I'm up about 35 in the past 1.5 years. I think just because my lifestyle and schedule have become so busy it's hard to get away, from quick meals and sitting too much. I'm going to make a push to see some improvement going into the summer.

I'm not a big drinker, but I tend to be more of a binge drinkers 4-8 drinks, 2-3 times / month. And I will look to cut back on the quantity rather than the occasion, hopefully get down to 2-3 drinks 2-3 times / month max.

I'm also targeting foods I know I am a sucker for, Dbl Dbl Coffee, Candy, Pepsi, Doughnuts, Fresh Bread, Mars Bars. And I am going to aim for an abstinence model on them at least 6 days / week.

I'm leaving a bottle of salad dressing at work, and picking up a large bag of mixed greens every Sunday for the work fridge. Just making that my default lunch.

And I'm trying to restrict my eating to 9am-9pm. Some might call it intermittent fasting, I'm just cutting out the late night snacking, and the desire to stop for coffee and pastries on the way to work. Instead having maybe some tea and cheese at 9 or 10 in the morning while sitting at my desk.
