HOW LONG DO YOU STICK WITH YOUR HEALTH-RELATED RESOLUTIONS?
THE AVERAGE ACTIVE AMERICAN QUITS THEIR HEALTHY GOALS ABOUT SEVEN WEEKS INTO THE NEW YEAR.
THAT’S ACCORDING TO A SURVEY OF 2,000 AMERICANS WHO WORK OUT AT LEAST ONCE A WEEK, WHERE 29% CONFESS THEY’D LAST LESS THAN A MONTH.
THE AVERAGE RESPONDENT WOULD MISS THEIR FAVORITE “UNHEALTHY” FOOD JUST 14 DAYS INTO GIVING IT UP.
CONDUCTED BY ONEPOLL ON BEHALF OF EGGLIFE, RESULTS ALSO REVEALED THAT WHEN IT COMES TO HEALTHY EATING, THE SAME AMOUNT OF RESPONDENTS CONSIDER IT A CHORE AS THOSE WHO SAY IT’S AN EASY PART OF THEIR LIFESTYLE (BOTH 34%).
Survey methodology:
This random double-opt-in survey of 2,000 Americans who exercise at least once a week was commissioned by egglife between Dec. 21 and 26, 2023. It was conducted by market research company OnePoll, whose team members are members of the Market Research Society and have corporate membership to the American Association for Public Opinion Research (AAPOR) and the European Society for Opinion and Marketing Research (ESOMAR).
