This episode is about making the pre-bolus habit last past the finish line, and it's grounded in habit science.\nA study by Phillippa Lally found it takes about 66 days on average for a behavior to become automatic, but the range is huge, 18 to 254 days. So if pre-bolusing still takes effort, you're not failing, you're on a normal curve. The best finding: missing a single day did not break the habit. Neil also makes the timely case for locking it in now, heading into back-to-school season, so the new routine gets built while everything's already being rearranged.\nIn this episode:\nWhy habits that last are the ones that got easy, not white-knuckled\nThe Lally study: about 66 days to automatic, and one missed day is fine\nHow to habit-stack your pre-bolus so it survives busy seasons\nWhy back-to-school is the perfect time to lock it in\nThis Week's Challenge: Write down, somewhere you'll see it, the one reason YOU want to keep pre-bolusing. When motivation dips in a few weeks, that note is what carries you.\nHelpful resources and newsletter: https://yourbestt1dyear.com\nConnect with Neil: TikTok: https://tiktok.com/@the.betes Instagram: https://instagram.com/thebetes Facebook: https://facebook.com/neilgreathouse LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/neil-greathouse-a607b912 Website: https://yourbestt1dyear.com\nBooks on Amazon: Type 1 Diabetes – One Day at a Time: https://a.co/d/6UHooWJ Type 1 Diabetes – True Stories: https://a.co/d/dfIlyI1","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/o0hXmJTfrsbPYfZKHjLJRs1Dx7iBMJisKDJZnYXjscs/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9lNzFh/MDhmY2QwMjcwZTcx/NWRkZTBjNTk5YzUz/YjY2MS5QTkc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
