If anything, I recently lowered my carbon footprint by changing my diet by almost eliminating meat, alcohol and processed food, especially soluble sugars and starch.

The climate wasn't my main concern though. I had a series of mini strokes that even medicine, diet and exercise could not end.
Last Thursday morning I received a PCI and a stent was placed to fix a single 80-90% blockage in a coronary artery... That was a close call!

Anyway, the diet and exercise started well before the PCI. I lost 8 kilograms in less than 2 months without effort, and since I started avoiding free sugars and starch, without hunger (no sugar dips). And I'll keep it up; I'm glad the PCI worked out but not looking forward to receiving another one in a hurry!
