So it’s perfectly acceptable that sometimes we get a bit lazy. We let things slide once or twice. Like, “Eh, I just didn’t feel like styling my hair today.” Or “Ha! It’s winter; I don’t need to shave these bad boys on the regular. That’s an extra layer of warmth right there.”
But occasionally, we get so used to not doing certain things that we end up taking it a tad too far. Here are eight red flags that may indicate we’re letting ourselves go a bit:

What’s a telltale sign that you’ve let yourself go? How many of these can you relate to?
Can’t relate. I just like to stay healthy.
Being winter, I can definitely relate to point 1.
