Bad Habits - Getting rid of your lemons.

Occasionally I eat potato chips. I know potato chips are fattening, high in calories and salt. i also know they take me away from my goal of eating nutritious foods and being fit. They are many things I don’t want because they don’t help me to reach my goals but I do want them - unless I stopped to think about it. Sometimes we want to get rid of some activity or habit but we just keep coming back. Just like Luc…
Most of the bad habits we keep, we dislike and we like. if we are to get rid of our lemons we can’t leave them right in front of us. Luc almost threw the lemon off the table and that is what we need to do. Make a decision and stick with it.

Want to talk about bad habits, I just ate 3 bags of M&M’s tonight. And they all tasted great too. I have no regrets. LOL!!
You’re absolutely right.
You can get rid of bad habits only through commitment. You can better control your life if you’re determined to do whatever it takes for breaking bad habits.
I would add planning to determination, have a plan to deal with things that distract you from sticking to your habit. I find planning my day helps me get through the day without going back in my comfort zone of bad habits. Knowing that you have them (bad habits) and trying to deal with them is the best we can do.
-Love Luc and his Lemon.

Well.. I think willpower also plays a part..
It mostly in the mind :-0)
That video is awesome! I can’t wait till I have a toddler and give them a lemon to munch on.
I’ve been trying to get away from french fries for over a year now, but just can’t seem to do it. One of these days Fries, I will beat you!
I deal with people who sustain the bad habit of getting angry with their loved ones. They are going nowhere, in the sense that they receive less and less love and more rejection, but anyhow it’s somehow better to throw a tantrum which will scare loved ones away.
Why do you keep such a habit? because it is easier to react as you always did, regardless of the cost?
Well, we need some attitude adjustment here…some steady, easy to follow directives to do every day….and be accountable to someone else.
Not so easy to do, but what is the alternative? be “right” in your anger and alone? Not for me!
