Regular exercise
To improve muscle health, not to burn calories acutely
Long-term exercise more important than type or intensity
Stress reduction
Reduce both perceived and invisible stresses
Restore sleep

Lifestyle Strategy
Keep the goal in mind: significant and durable weight loss
Assess patients current lifestyle and habits
Identify greatest opportunities for lifestyle change
Focus on changes that influence the obesogenic environment, not the
cardiovascular or other risk
