Back to School Cut

Habit Change CANNOT ride on willpower for very long. Habits are built on belief, done without much thinking, and kept going through a reward system. Therefore we need to use the habit creation system to break the bad habit. Each Monday we will have a "What da Cut!?" to practice this process on a weekly basis. This week we cut: ADDED SUGAR. Watch this video: https://youtube.com/shorts/bHUfPraI_-I?si=DLBt3F8d3R8d4pjN   . Now anytime you are craving sugar let's inact the process. Step 1. Change the Belief - Tell Yourself "Added Sugar Isn't Good For Me. In fact it's making me have energy crashes, gain unneccessary weight, and increase my risk of nuerological diseases." Step 2. Change the Behavior - "So instead of eating this snack with added Sugar I'm going to have 1 Brazil Nut (all the selenium I need to help my cravings) and either a baggie of fruits and veggies or a teaspoon of L-Glutamine. Step 3. Reward - A HEALTHY NON ADDED SUGAR SNACK. Examples: Dark Chocolate or Fruit or both - Buy a good dark chocolate sweetened with either dates, honey, or maple syrup. Or Reward yourself with your favorite organic fruit. Or you can make one of the healthy snacks from our packet or the group share. Side Note: Each of these "What the Cut!?" are meant for the week and for habit change practice.
