Grammar / used to
I used to eat junk food and sweet things, but I don’t like them anymore.
*The use of "used to" is perfect here. I changes, "these now" to, "them anymore" to sound more natural.
ジャンクフードや甘いものをよく食べてたけど、今は好きじゃありません。
I used to read the mystery novels, but now I prefer novels about everyday life.
*The use of "used to" is perfect here, but, "the novel of mystery" sounds a little unnatural. Instead, use, "mystery novels". Instead of "usual life", maybe say "novels about everyday life".
ミステリー小説が好きだったけど、今は日常が書いてある小説の方が好きです。
I didn’t use to cook for my lunch , but now I’m into making bentos.
*The negative form of, "used to" should be, "use to" (didn't use to). "Do bento", sounds a little unnatural. Maybe try saying, "making bentos".
前は使っていなかったけど、今は弁当を作ることに夢中です。
I didn’t use to stretch, but now I do often work out.
*The use of "used to" is perfect here. I moved, "now" so that it sounds more natural.
