5 unsexy habits that help me maintain my 40lb weight loss 1. I eat the same breakfast and lunch nearly every day. As a full time working mom, I’m making decisions all day every day. Not having to think about what I’m doing to eat for breakfast and lunch has helped me stay so consistent. 2. Focus on overall daily movement rather than just my workout. For me, this means getting in 10k steps a day minimum. Your workout is important but how you spend the rest of your day plays such a big role. Find ways to move more. 3. My morning routine. Aka my North Star. This routine gives me structure and helps keep me consistent even when motivation isn’t there. It helps me be so much more productive every single day. 4. Bulk prep ingredients. I take 1 hour on the weekends to prep for the week. Chicken, jasmine rice, sweet potatoes, brussel sprouts, ground beef, etc. Prepping these ingredients and having them ready to go saves SO much time. 5. Keep my meals so simple it’s almost stupid. Sure, they might look boring to some people but they work for me. A high protein, whole foods diet has changed the game for me completely and also decreases my sugar cravings.
