One of my downfalls when trying to stick to a plan is coffee and biscuits 😋 I really love an oat milk latte, so many added calories though 🙈 And I really love a dark chocolate 🍫 biscuit to dunk! It's such a habit even my 2 year old wants to dunk her baby biscuits in my coffee ☕️ 🙈 I do let her as I have decaff 😅 I have had to rewire that habit for this plan as I still love coffee! I have had to dig deep and buy 0 biscuits, much to my older ones despair 😅 but I needed to remove the temptation, even that was a habit, buying in the shop! I was stuck in Habit Loop! A habit is developed and reinforced through a neurological feedback loop. There are for key stages ... ✨️Cue: A trigger for the behavior, such as a time of day, a location, or a feeling. ✨️Craving: The desire or motivation for the reward that the habit provides. ✨️Response: The actual behavior or action you perform. ✨️Reward: The positive outcome or feeling that is associated with the habit, which reinforces the loop. Next time you do something automatic try to stop and catch yourself So now I have a far less milky coffee, taking some milk from the plan, and no dunking! I am sure when this 8 weeks are over I will allow myself my favourite coffee and biscuits but hopefully will have stopped the habits and be able to stop myself wanting it everyday!
