Archive for the ‘Monthly Habits’ Category

I’ve been thinking of re-vamping the habits section of the blog. I think one week is a bit short a time period for developing a new habit. I’ve done some reading, and many people claim it takes 3-4 weeks for a new habit to be formed.

So, I’m going to switch the habits portion of the blog to monthly, rather than weekly. Hopefully, this will give me (and any of you doing them with me) a better chance to build a lasting habit.

For this month, I’m planning on giving up sweets. That includes candy, cookies, ice cream, etc. It also includes sugar in my tea and even pre-sweetened cereal. I’ve been thinking a lot lately about how many extra calories I consume just from sweets, and it’s a lot.

We’ll see how things go for this month. Good luck!
