How do you get back on the wagon if you skipped one day? Asking as a person who almost never had breakfast in her life and started one week ago with this (new) habit.
Recommended AnswerAI SummaryIt’s completely normal to skip a day when establishing a new habit like eating a great breakfast. The key is to practice self-compassion and focus on consistency rather than perfection. Start by reflecting on what led to skipping breakfast and identify any barriers. Then, create a simple plan for the next day, perhaps by preparing a quick meal the night before. Remember, building lasting healthy habits takes time, so embrace the journey and keep stacking those positive breakfast rituals!
I’d say treat every day like it’s the first. If you missed a day, try again the next day. Maybe you could make small goals and build on it overtime. For instance, instead 7 days, try for 3 (consecutive or not) out of the week. Once you’ve accomplished that goal, increase it. To be honest, it is going to take practice. Don’t beat yourself down. Give yourself much grace. Another way to work on this goal is to either have an idea for breakfast maybe from the night before or meal prep. This way, you’re not trying to figure out what you want to eat then give up after it seem like too much. Take great care!
