The best thing you can do for your body? Healthy eating. The second best thing? Exercise. The next one? I’d say it’s walking faster. Let me explain.
Walking is mundane and boring, you do it daily, probably when you commute and sometimes when you just need to get somewhere. It’s a form of exercise nonetheless, a low-intensity cardio with some load for legs.
It’s not as taxing on your knees as running. You don’t sweat as much and don’t need to change clothes after and the weather doesn’t matter. Besides, it saves some time from your commute.
You can walk faster than you do know. Do it long enough - and it will boost your stamina and save more time. Maybe you’ll start running at some point, but even fast walking is a good thing to do. Besides, it can be referred to “natural movement”, which to me sounds slightly overrated, but worth considering nonetheless.

@trinsec I cannot feasibly eat too much and eat healthy, since healthy eating implies no fast cards and significant amount of greens and meat. I need to eat a lot just to meet my caloric requirements, and building muscle is very hard. This is just for my metabolism, though. Kinda like cheetah.
@academicalnerd You can eat healthy and still eat too much, though. Healthy eating in moderation is probably better.
That said, I definitely need to exercise more. :P
