According to the internet, many people abandon their New Year’s resolutions by the second Friday of January. So, Happy Quitters Day! But hear me out \u2013 health resolutions can benefit from a gradual rollout in January, with a more focused approach in February.<\/p>\n
Here’s why:<\/p>\n
Decompressing from the Holidays:<\/strong> The holidays can be hectic. From taking down decorations and returning gifts to simply needing quiet time after a flurry of social events, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. Adding rigorous health goals to the mix can feel daunting.<\/p>\n Weather Challenges:<\/strong> January weather can be uninspiring for exercise. Cold climates present obvious obstacles like icy roads and frigid temperatures. Even in milder climates, air quality issues (like post-fire smoke) can hinder outdoor activity.<\/p>\n Refrigerator and Pantry Purge:<\/strong> Holiday treats can make it hard to stick to healthy eating habits. It’s hard to stay on a healthy food regimen when there’s a pile of Holiday themed Hershey’s kisses in a jar next to the apples and oranges. Ask me how I know.<\/p>\n Tools for Better Health:<\/strong><\/p>\n I’ve included some of my favorite tools for building healthy habits.<\/p>\n The Hume Smart scale measures 56 different body metrics, so it’s so much more insightful to see body changes. Not only can I see my visceral and subcutaneous fat, but I can see how much muscle I have and even how much per appendage! It also has a bone mass and hydration reading, which has been illuminating.<\/p>\n\n
