7. Skipping Breakfast: How many times have you heard, “Breakfast is the most important meal of the day”?” Well, it is. Skipping the first meal can make you crash (and eat more) later on in the day. It can also mean less energy during the day for workouts and just make concentrating harder throughout the morning. By the time lunch rolls around, you’re ravished and will eat a cow if it were in front of you—or some of those cupcakes and bagels around the office. Breakfast eaters are thinner, can process information in the morning better, and have lower blood pressure.
8. Too Much TV: The average adult spends more than 20 hours a week watching TV. It’s almost a full day. This inactivity can bring down your stamina and will to stay active. “It's an activity where you burn few calories and in many cases consume lots of calories by snacking,” says Heslin. Moderate your viewing. If you watch an hour’s worth of television, get up and do something in between. Don’t just sit there!
9. Unhealthy Relationships: If you’re not happy in your relationship, get out. Depression can set in, which can lead to a plethora of bad habits (poor eating, lack of exercise). “Staying in an unhealthy relationship keeps you from your full potential because it metaphorically brings you down,” says Lawrence Biscontini, a Mindful movement specialist based in Greece. “What you tolerate, you accept, and tolerating a relationship that is below your standards, even unconsciously means, you are accepting standards that fall below what you seek.”
10. Little Or No Sleep: No sleep can lead to many more bad habits over the years. Sleep deprivation comes in all forms and can lead to depression, low libido, weight gain, and more. The CDC reported that 35% of adults get less than seven hours of sleep on average, and 38% have even dropped off to sleep during the day at least once in the past month. Chronic sleep disorders, or lack of sleep, can lead to diabetes, stroke, heart disease, heart failure, irregular heartbeat, high blood pressure, and more throughout time. Getting little sleep also impairs your cognitive processes and can impact your alertness, concentration, reasoning, and problem solving. It can also kill your sex drive or any desire to work out, as well as age you. Yes, lack of sleep can lead to fine lines, dark circles under the eyes, and overall lacklustre skin, so close your eyes and snooze a bit longer each day.
