How Do I Change My Habits to Manage Type 2 Diabetes?
Whether you're managing type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, trying to lose weight, or even struggling with PCOS, small habits over a period of time make all the difference in your consistency and improving your health.
Have you ever tried to make too many changes at once? Eat less calories, low carb, low fat, exercise 3x a week (when you're just starting out), cut out soda and sugar and overall develop "perfect" healthy habits overnight.
Your brain resists the extreme changes and before you know it, you've thrown in the towel and are indulging in the very things that are not contributing to a healthier lifestyle. So what works? In my personal experience, and over 8 years of coaching clients, small changes work. Why? Because your body RESPONDS to small changes that it's not used to doing.
Instead of restriction, give yourself something to work with, to look foward to. Pick ONE THING to change. Do you know what most of my clients say to me? "I know I have to eat more vegetables!" My response is, "yep, that's a good place to start." I don't have to tell them to eat more veggies. I also don't tell them to STOP eating a certain type of food for forever.
I let my clients choose the ONE THING they want to change. If they choose drinking more water, eating more vegetables, exercising more or simply starting a routine, I guide them on that journey. I close the gap between where they are now and where they want to be. I teach them how to reach those goals without extremes. What you choose to do is more sustainable then being TOLD what to do. You resist your decision a lot less.
How do you change your habits? PICK ONE THING to change TODAY! Start with that and work on that ONE habit for 30 days. It sounds too simple, right? I challenge you to work on one habit and tell me how you feel. Because when you crush that one goal, you look forward to adding another thing. This is habit stacking in the righ direction.
