One Obsession At A Time
What My Habit Tracker Is Teaching Me | Healthy Habits, Intermittent Fasting & Why I'm Questioning Fitness Myths
This week on One Obsession At A Time, I'm sharing a real-life habit tracker check-in and reflecting on what's actually sticking... and what's quietly falling away.
We'll chat about my current obsessions, including walking 10,000 steps, daily movement and improving my sleep, plus why I'm questioning whether eating breakfast is the best choice for me and considering a return to intermittent fasting.
I also share something that surprised me from a fitness podcast I listened to this week: the popular idea of a "cortisol belly" may not be as straightforward as social media makes it seem. It got me thinking about how easy it is to believe health trends without stopping to ask whether they're backed by good evidence.
In this episode, we cover:
✨ My weekly habit tracker accountability check-in
✨ Which healthy habits are becoming automatic
✨ What's falling off (and why that's okay)
✨ My thoughts on intermittent fasting and eating breakfast
✨ The truth behind the "cortisol belly" trend
✨ Why I'm learning to observe my habits instead of judging them
✨ One simple challenge to help you become your future self this week
If you've ever struggled with consistency, wondered why some habits stick while others don't, or felt overwhelmed by conflicting health advice, I hope this episode reminds you that lasting change comes from curiosity, not perfection.
