Post-dinner sweets = nightly struggle.โฃ

You know that craving you have for chocolate after dinner while you're watching [๐ช๐ฏ๐ด๐ฆ๐ณ๐ต ๐ค๐ถ๐ณ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ฏ๐ต ๐ฑ๐ฐ๐ฑ๐ถ๐ญ๐ข๐ณ ๐๐ฆ๐ต๐ง๐ญ๐ช๐น ๐ด๐ฉ๐ฐ๐ธ]?โฃ
โฃ
That's a habit.โฃ
โฃ
Here is the good news: habits can be broken.โฃ
โฃ
Right now, your current routine probably looks something like:โฃ

โฃ
Your habit is to grab a snack before you sit down. โฃ
โฃ
Instead, try this. After you finish with your kids (or whatever chore), go brush your teeth. โฃ
โฃ
Add that new habit into your current routine. โฃ
โฃ
You might still head to the kitchen or pantry without thinking, but eventually, you'll omit the snack from that routine because who likes to brush their teeth twice a night? โฃ
โฃ
Will this work 100% of the time? Probably not. But it will create a barrier to snacking. And the more barriers you put between you and a bad habit, the more likely you will be to ditch that bad habit.โฃ
โฃ
Let me know when you try this!โฃ
