Connecticut doctors say healthy habits fail for reasons beyond willpower
Original: If healthy habits feel impossible, Connecticut doctors say you're not the problem
Connecticut doctors are telling patients that struggling to maintain healthy habits is not a personal failure. They point to factors such as environment, stress, time constraints and unrealistic expectations rather than a lack of willpower, urging people to set smaller, more achievable goals instead of blaming themselves when lifestyle changes don't stick.
Why now: Many people abandon New Year-style health resolutions and find reassurance in doctors shifting blame away from individual willpower.
