Week Seven

May 29, 2018 by not your average mom 1 Comment

I usually write my fitness/weight loss updates/new-and-healthier lifestyle posts on Mondays, but yesterday was Memorial Day and a lot of people were having parties and going off the rails or falling off the wagon and having a treat/cheat/whatever day, so I saved it for today.

21 days to establish a new habit, right? WRONG!

January 1, 2017 by not your average mom 1 Comment

We’ve all seen that quote — So that’s just three weeks. Right? Wrong! WRONG! WRONG! WRONG!!! That quote — the one that says it takes 21 days to form a new habit — is actually kind of a misquote. A quote that has mutated. Back in the 1950’s, a plastic surgeon named Maxwell Maltz noticed a […]
