I’ve lost 40lbs in 8 months and these are 5 micro habits I would start building this week if I was starting from scratch: 1. Rotate through the same 3-5 meals, especially during busy weeks. As a full time working mom, my meals are the last thing I want to worry about. For me, having a few good meals to rotate through helps keep me consistent. 2. Consume at least 30g of protein at breakfast so that you’re not catching up on protein later in the day. This also helps me stay satiated for longer in the morning and balances my blood sugar. 3. Increase your daily step count by 1,000 each week until you’re consistently hitting 8–10k steps/day. 4. My “never miss twice” rule. Meaning, if I skip a workout or sleep through my alarm or miss my macros, I make the next best decision to keep me on track. 5. Prep on Sunday’s. 2-3 proteins, 2-3 carbohydrates, 2-: fruits and vegetables. Cooked, prepped and ready to go so I can mix and match all week.
