:? Yes, sugar is addicting. Our bodies are born with a love of sweets because that's where the calories are & in the old days we needed to seek out high calorie foods to survive. Nowadays food manufactureres put sugar in everything because they want you to be addicted & to eat more of their products.

So you have to go cold turkey. And the way to do that is ... With turkey! (and other protein). Protein will help you lose that sugar taste. So eat lean meats, unsweetened dairy products (plain yogurt, cheese, skim milk), nuts, seeds. Check labels on bread, cereal, or crackers & don't eat any with honey, sugar, or any '-ose' word (sucrose, glucose). Eat lots of veggies & low-sugar fruits (apples, berries, pears, peaches).

It will get easier after the first week.
You may want to stay on this plan even after the prom. Sugar is bad for you in many ways, not just as a cause of overweight but it makes you think less clearly & makes you sick & tired more easily.
Good luck!

When you get a craveing drink some tea then when you get past the 3rd day then you have beaten it hahah it worked for me!!!

My name is Frida and I’m from Sweden. I have a short
question for you that I hope you could answer. I’m
actually writing a book about eating disorders in
different kind of ways and also other forms of anxiety
about food, and I think that it would be interesting
to get in touch with you (if you think that you have
something to talk about). I’d love it if you answered
directly to my e-mail, [removed]. If someone
else would be interested in sharing their experiences
or information (everything; overeating, anorexia,
sugar addiction, bulimia, ortorexia and so on) please
contact me. Obvouusly it’s anonymous and you will of
course get at copy of the book.

Im really skinny, but I eat a lot. Many people say it's not fair, but when they get sick, can they see their bones?

Anyway... My bother is like you... sort of... except he is 250 pounds...

I think the best way to get rid of the craving is just to realize that you WANT to lose weight... I'm probably not the expert here, but I think the most important part is realizing that you need and want to lose weight and you are willing to put a plan into action.

How about... instead of cutting cold turkey... you give yourself some amount, but increase your excorsize time? Than you can have small amounts without going completely cold turkey and you won't gain wait...

You will need to have control though...

Thanks,

George
