How To Make Healthy Habits Stick

It’s difficult enough to create healthy habits but it’s even more tolling to keep up with them! But it doesn’t have to be.

Slow and steady is the weight loss mantra and making little changes is going to lead to long-lasting results. Don’t go too big too quickly.  

Whether it’s friends, family or a partner. Having someone to hold you accountable is going to keep you more motivated and really drill in your new healthy habits.

One of the best support systems out there is our very own private Facebook group! Once you’ve started on The Lady Shake journey, we highly recommend you join The Lady Club.

We’ve got over 30,000 ladies supporting each other, sharing their journey and giving tips and tricks to the community. You’ll stay motivated and might even make some friends because you’ll be surrounded online with likeminded people!

Habits can take a while to stick, and meal prep is a good example. It takes effort and good planning which can often be a deterrent. Consistently preparing meals each week requires a solid mindset, and if you get bored of what you’re eating, you're likely to veer off track. Keep your meals interesting by changing it up weekly. Flip through recipe books or have a look online for meals that are both healthy and appeal to you. We've got a whole range of our own recipes to get you started!

We’ve said it before, and we’ll say it again — sleep is detrimental to your weight loss journey! Lacking sleep can make you gain weight for a few reasons! Check out our blog on how sleep impacts weight loss for a more in-depth explanation. 

If you struggle to fall asleep in the first place, we’ve got you, ladies! Check out our sleep guide here.

Even once you’ve got your meal prep sorted, what happens when you’re feeling a little peckish in between? You need a little pick-me-up. Pack snacks that are high in protein and fibre, and that are easy to eat like bananas, nuts or our Lady Bars. 

Implementing these strategies is going to help you stick to your goals. Don’t let a lifestyle change overwhelm you. You’ve got this!
