It’s 2 days before my 40th birthday and so I thought it was the perfect time for a Fit-at-Forty check in. It’s been about five months since I undertook my $25-a-week healthy food challenge…

But as is often the case when you make lifestyle changes, you start asking yourself the question, “Will I be able to do this for the rest of my life?” The good news is, you only have to do it today.
