- Lose the first 25–30 lb through food control. This is probably the biggest multi-system lever: weight, insulin resistance/A1c, BP, triglycerides, and liver.
- High-protein, moderately low-carb, low-saturated-fat diet. Think lean protein + vegetables/fiber + mostly unsaturated fats—not dirty keto.
- Strength 2–3×/week + moderate cardio/walking. Strength for muscle/body composition; cardio because your triglycerides and metabolic markers clearly respond to it.
- Fix the iron deficiency
- Make sleep/recovery a real intervention. Better sleep should help appetite control, glucose regulation, BP, recovery, and your ability to execute everything else.
