Breaking Habits | It’s Not Easy

When it comes to breaking a habit, it becomes difficult because there is an emotional component that is attached to the habit. Once you make the decision that you need to change the habit, write it down and list any triggers that make you want to give into that habit. Pen to paper will make you accountable and easier for change.

In my example, I’m trying to save money and time by making more coffee at home. My triggers are:

Getting out of the house
Having somebody else do something for me because I’m always taking care of everyone else
I love the social aspect of chatting with the barista girls
It tastes much better than when I make it myself
The feel of the warm cup gets me every time

Attacking your Habit Triggers

Identifying your triggers head on are key to success. Using my example, here are some things I am working on to make more coffee at home:

My coffee and filter is within site on my counter daily for a reminder
I track how much money and time I was spending for a visual
Each coffee I make at home is money saved in a jar for a visual high five for myself
These simple acts made me reduce from buying 14 lattes a week to only 3 that I bought out *I order a latte with one long shot of espresso made with coconut milk twice daily so it gets pricey!

Here is my real time update on my habit honesty!

Meet Nicole | 11 pounds lost

So proud of our Member Nicole and we always want to share stories of people just like you. 11 pounds gone and now she’s got a body of muscle. Does anyone need a reminder to take care of themselves? Make health and fitness a priority this year!

Q: What improvements and changes have you made both physically and mentally since joining Fit4Females?

Nicole: “Since I started, I am down 11 pounds, I am the strongest I have ever been, I feel fantastic, and I have the energy to keep up with my little guy. Being a new mom wasn’t an easy transition for me, I forgot to take care of myself. Fit4Females reminded me that I’m important too, and taking care of myself is not selfish – it’s necessary.”

Way to often we forget to spend the money, time and energy on the most important project in our life – OURSELVES. Read more here
