Bad Habits are Hard to Break

We all have them. What’s yours?

Mine is smoking. (I know, I know😑🙁) I quit for 3 months and fell off the wagon hard this year. I really need to knuckle down and do it for good. I think the next time I go for it, it’s gonna be the time, now that I’m more into fitness and getting me to my top shape.

How about you guys and girls?

    I am really bad about leaving stuff lying around. I need to get in the groove of always putting stuff back where it belongs.

    Giving up my ecig or atleast just using it on occasion. Hopefully I can do this before the year is out. Need to devise a plan.

    The e-cigs helped a lot when I was off the cigarettes. Still a bad habit, but not as bad. Good luck!

    Eating, drinking, smoking, bad attitudes, and mean women.

    Them mean women though. 🙌🏼

    Ahem. You're friends with me. I'm the furtherest thing from mean as it gets (profile picture not withstanding)! I rescue drowning bees from the pool even though I am now allergic to them.

    I'm with you on the eating though. Very bad habit I need to break

    I'm in the bad habit of not pre-planning my meals and snacks so I'm always crunched for time and pick the worst things at that point.

    Pre-planning is the one thing that keeps my diet on track. Saves me money too instead of eating out 2 meals a day at work!

    Exactly. I spend too much money on food.

    1. Diet soda consumption (trying to work on this by years' end).
    2. Not always being on top of clutter/cleaning/dishes in the house.
    3. Picking at sores/acne. I've done this since I was little. I took up knitting and crochet to keep my hands occupied, but it doesn't always work.

    I’ve been the exact opposite. This diet has me eating quite cheap!

    My dad always preached that it takes 30 days to break a bad habit if you replace it with a different one.

    Today is day one.

    And BOY do I have a lot to replace!
