65. 21 Day Habit Reset
Feb 05, 2023In this episode of The Concierge Weight Loss Podcast, Kara Hackleman, Certified Life & Weight Loss Coach, dives into the topic of habits and why they are the true key to lasting change. While resolutions might spark motivation, it’s the habits you build that create sustainable weight loss and personal transformation.
Key Points Covered:
-
Resolutions vs. Habits:
- Resolutions are a great way to dream and identify desires, but they often lack the roadmap for consistent action.
- Habits are the small, repeatable actions that turn intentions into results.
-
The Role of Habits in Weight Loss:
- Success isn’t about perfection; it’s about consistency and learning from what doesn’t work.
- Common weight-loss habits include eating only when hungry, staying hydrated, and getting enough sleep.
-
The Power of a Habit Reset:
- Kara challenges listeners to a 21-day habit reset, perfect for February's theme of self-love.
- Focus on small, manageable changes that support your goals.
-
Setting Realistic Goals:
- You don’t need to have your “end number” figured out. Start with smaller, attainable steps, like a 10% weight-loss goal.
- Adjust your goals as you go and focus on how you feel, not just the numbers.
-
Building Patience and Self-Compassion:
- Give yourself grace as you work through habits—you’re human, and progress isn’t linear.
- Think about how you’d encourage a friend and offer yourself the same kindness.
-
Practical Strategies for Creating Habits:
- Pair new habits with existing routines.
- Write plans or use time-blocking to build accountability.
- Keep habits simple to eliminate barriers to success.
-
Kara’s Current Habit Focus:
- Kara shares her personal journey of stopping at “enough” when eating to avoid overeating.
- Experimenting with habits can help you better understand your body and create lasting change.
Takeaways for Listeners:
- Habits, not resolutions, are the foundation of lasting weight loss and personal growth.
- Focus on consistency and patience, not perfection.
- Start small and build from there—every step forward counts.
