How to Stop Eating Sugar: Set Short-Term Goals #shorts

When you cut sugar out of your diet, you stabilize your blood sugar and insulin levels, helping your body burn fat and putting you in control of hunger and cravings. But, sugar is addictive, so how do you stop eating it?

In this video, I share one step you can take today to get sugar out of your life.

The only thing that worked for me was treating sugar as an addiction problem. It helped me make sense of why I can't control eating sugar and why giving up sugar long term is something I have to do to be healthy. I've been "sober" for 3.5 years.

I trained myself to make steak or beef and clean up the mess completely when done whenever I felt a sugar craving. If I wasn't hungry enough with that prompt to go through all the work, I really did not need to eat, even sugar. It still took well over a year, but it can be done. Sugar free for almost 2.5 years now.

Forget that mess....white sugar to me is like liquor for an alcoholic. I know I can't have it, I don't eat it. Coconut sugar is a wonderful replacement

Hello Doctor. Would you say that a high glucose number in my blood work (around 90) is pre diabetic? I love your channel so much.

The real problem is, even if I give up sugar, the rest of society hasn't. It's EVERYWHERE. I could stop, but come Christmas time, I wouldn't be able to resist Christmas cookies that are around every corner so to speak. I can only resist so much before I break. And eating in general is such a social thing to do. Eating junk in those situations feels unavoidable... But then, isn't it still ok to have sugar on occasion?
