This is exactly me rn. Deep depression, itchy legs/body. I know I’m a sugar addict and have been my entire life. Sugar is ruining my mental health, teeth, and overall well being. I literally feel crazy and it makes me so angry how socially acceptable sugar is.

Great video! The first step I took when I quit sugar was to empty my home, office and car of all sugared and sugary foods and wrappers. It’s hard to do this because you spent a lot of money on them. But take heart in the fact that you won’t be spending any money on them again. I quit in 2012. It has brought me joy!

As a former sugar addict I can confirm that these are all great tips, and they certainly work! Thank you for sharing!

I'm like about to cry... I'm really struggling with a lot of this and it felt good to hear that you were once as out of control as me and that you made it to the other side... thank you thank you 🙏🏾💞

It's strange that so many videos that give advice on quitting sugar are filled with clips of people eating frosted cakes. I found the same with videos on quitting smoking showing lots of people smoking. Surely imagery of happy, people full of vitality engaging in healthy activities and eating colourful, healthy food would be more motivating.

I’ve struggled with chronic pain & neuropathy for 14 years. I’m 46 now! Used to take Oxy for the pain! Was fit, trim & managing pain. When I detoxed off of Oxy 5 years ago, I traded it for Sugar addiction! A Secondary Addiction! Gained 80 lbs, clinical depression & in the worst shape of my life! Was even told by my pain doctor to file for disability! I can’t accept that! I’m too young! I feel like giving up sugar will help me get fit & less depression! I’m desperate to get fit & pain free. I’ve heard sugar is making pain & depression worse! Giving sugar up will help me immensely! I just know it! Trying to learn how to do it! 🤓 Thanks for your video! I will implement these 5 steps and keep you up to date on my progress!

Step one, we admitted we were powerless over food/ sugar and our lives had became unmanageable.
Step two, believed a power greater than ourselves could restore us back to sanity.
Step 3 became willing to turn our lives over to the care of God as we understand him.

Why do "sugar experts" insist upon posting pictures of sweets? So not helpful for true sugar addicts.

Updating Your Reward System. Great point! I used to eat a sugary food to make me feel better whenever agitated. It led to worse behaviors. Now I exercise daily and am fighting to repair all the horrible impairments that I caused, including cognitive impairments.

I stopped eating sugar and processed foods 4 months ago now. It’s incredible what’s happened to my body. At the age of 49 my body has been transformed. Was 96kg and now am 72kg. Eating home made food, and nature’s natural sugar. So eating a lot of apples especially. Once to begin the journey, you truly have no desire to put any sugar, processed factory made foods. Along with the sugar they add a lot of Trans vegetables oils!!! Both Poison!!!! 🙌🙌🌗💜 x

I relate much to being addicted to sugar as a kid. As a child I had emotional pain and I think sugar was my dopamine hit. It soothed me.

Talking about being an addict in the beginning. It's actually true. Sugar is just as addictive as opioids on the brain. There is a 12-step program called overeaters anonymous which helps address that part. Sometimes we have to find out the why behind it.... It could be physical. Could be mental, could be trauma. I believe it's all. I'm currently being treated for candida overgrowth. Glad I found this video.

❤I am 7 days sugar free ( junk food free!). I am using Xs on my calendar. This really is inspirational. I gave up Diet Coke last year at this time. I only drink water. So, I am adding another layer!

For decades I was hooked on sugar but also salt (ready salted crisps/chips, family size, 3 bags a day) and refined flour (pastries, 3 pizzas a day). I had no idea about how extreme your food addiction was too, Karli, so I'm even more impressed with what you've achieved, your discipline in sticking to a WFPB way of eating and the positive, effective way in which you help people (also very impressed with the healthy way you raise your gorgeous daughter). It's so important to find something you love about yourself (creativity, kindness, love of nature and animals) and believe that you deserve better, you deserve to be healthy and free from addiction. I too became addicted to junk food in childhood and I alternated between bingeing and extreme dieting from age 12 to age 54, I was suicidal and depressed, agoraphobic, out of work. What actually saved me was being in lockdown because I could only order food online and I simply stopped ordering junk and only bought salads, fruits and veggies, falafel and hummus, there was simply no more junk in the house so I gradually weaned myself off junk food and lost weight immediately. For some reason a YouTube video about WFPB eating popped into my recommended videos and this time I listened and acted on it. I've now been WFPB oil & sugar-free for 3 years, slim and maintaining my slim weight for the first time in my life. Still working on reducing salt but I've just done all my blood tests and everything's fine, I'm no longer pre-diabetic and I make sure I always tell my doctor and my dentist that the reason why I'm so well now is that I'm WFPB. Thank you Karli

This is the most practical and useful video about quitting sugar, that I have ever watched. Thank you for direct and realistic plan!

Thank you so much. My children and I are on day 7 and I felt like my brain was trying to trick me again that buying that donut or icecream would be ok today. I have been trying for 5 years to get back to the sugar free life that I know I love.

I really the X on my calendar for each day I’ve been sugar-free. I can visually see “I’m on a roll!!!” & don’t want to break that momentum.

jacquelineclowes

Going sugar-free has truly been a game changer for me as well! I completely understand the challenge of battling sugar cravings, but this 5-step strategy sounds like a fantastic approach to overcoming them. I’m confident that following a plan like this can help us experience the same positive transformation!

BeyondBingeEating

I’m going to show this to my husband and 10 year old daughter. We need to make this change as a family and I love your story. Thanks for this.

As a pre-diabetic and surrounded by it at work daily, for me, the only items that worked are: Metformin (curbed appetite and needed it for my blood sugar issues), light daily exercise, and an SSRI. For some reason the SSRI helped me to curb food cravings in general.
