Equal’s new No Compromise report reveals the swap habits that could help the nearly two-thirds of Australians who’ve abandoned their health changes in less than four weeks
SYDNEY, Oct. 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Australians are actively trying to live healthier lives but a new national report suggests the biggest barrier to making healthier habits stick may not be a lack of discipline but the way we approach change in the first place.
The No Compromise report commissioned by Equal found that 62 per cent of Australians have given up on a health change earlier than planned with more than one in four saying it’s happened several times.
And for those who have given up, the first few weeks appear to be a major hurdle with nearly two-thirds saying their most recent abandoned change lasted four weeks or less.
