I’ve stopped eating sweets.
The first month
was rough.
I had cravings for sweets
every day,
all day.
I had the shakes.
I was super grumpy.
And I’d reach for sweets
out of habit.
After a month,
my body AND my mind
adjusted.
We’ve all heard
it takes
21 days to form
a new habit.
That number is based
on…
nothing.
No valid research.
Scientists say
it can take
anywhere from 18 days
to 254 days
to form a new habit.
Give yourself grace
if it takes a while
to form a new habit.
