Another option is what one author calls a meal “upgrade.” Essentially, you make your tiny habit to upgrade each meal (or start with just one meal).

This means something like drinking water instead of soda, getting a side salad instead of fries (with an otherwise fast food meal), chewing each bite 4 times more than you normally would, etc.

These are just a few examples of tiny habits and there are many, many more that no doubt you could think of!
