For example, to get more exercise, I park in the parking lot at work as far from where I need to go as possible, so I get extra walking in. And I always take the stairs instead of the elevator. Every little bit helps, and I have a long way to go.

It definitely does Pink. The stairs at where I work really make the difference, and I always walk to work (only about a mile away). It keeps me at baseline even when I don't exercise properly or decide to eat junk too much. You don't have as far to go as you think, as long as you don't give up on yourself and remain consistent. Remember that it is always far easier putting the extra-fat cells on, than taking them off... use that as motivation for next time you eye that box of donuts!

I know I do... and I also hate the way that I feel mentally/emotionally when I don't exercise or eat right. My anxiety goes through the roof without proper release, and exercise provides that, in addition to being a confidence booster.
Your T does sound like he's a funny guy. I had a T right before my current T, and I swear, she was the ditziest, blank looking "deer in the headlights" T I have ever met. I didn't get anything out of it, but thankfully I found my current T, whose pretty dang funny.
