You don't have a bad habit you need to "just" stop doing?
Everybody's got a monkey or two on their back.
- jonhohle 3y agoI absolutely agree, 100%. I was responding in the context of things life is too busy for. I didn’t want to imply that it could “just” be done, only that it takes no time or resources. It certainly takes willpower and it sucks for several weeks while the body adjusts, and when a treat sounds really good (come on, you earned it!). It takes breaking snacking habits and requires social trade offs. It’s completely unmotivating to weigh more when the previous day was hard to stick with the plan. Plain popcorn can’t compare to movie theater butter flavored topping.
