My Doctor gave me ten key points: 

1. Get your weight under control. Try to be as lean as possible without being underweight.
   
2. Be physically active for at least 30 minutes every day. Limit sedentary habits.
   
3. Avoid sugary drinks. Limit consumption of energy-dense foods.
   
4. Drink plenty of water and eat more of a variety of vegetables, fruits, whole grains and legumes such as beans.
   
5. Limit consumption of red meats (such as beef, pork and lamb) and avoid processed meats.
   
6. Try to quit drinking alcoholic beverages. If consumed at all, limit alcoholic consumption to 2 for men and 1 for women a day.
   
7. Limit consumption of salty foods and foods processed with sodium.
   
8. Don't use supplements to protect against cancer. Quit all herbal medications that are not approved by your doctor.
   
9. Don't use tobacco.
   
10. Make sure you are getting check ups regularly and are updated on all immunizations
    

He also gave me other tips like limiting carcinogens and toxins and chemicals in my home, cosmetic products, and foods and anything that I'm in contact with, as well as BPA found in plastics. Limit high fat food and fast foods. Filter my tap water. 

There was actually a lot we talked about, and not everything I fully understand, like the part where he said don't use supplements to protect against cancer?? I don't get that. But it was a lot to go through, we are just trying to keep the precancerous cells from proliferation and dividing and with some additional tests we should find out what other steps I might need to take.
