Overcoming sugar addiction can be as difficult as quitting a hard drug like heroine or cocaine…
As you probably know, sugar addiction comes with a whole lot of negative side-effects. How many of these are you feeling on a weekly basis?
* Unbeatable sugar (and other) cravings
...no matter what you do, what you eat, or how you exercise you can’t stop thinking about sugar or other carbs...and the only time you aren’t eating sugar is because you’re using willpower, NOT because you don’t want it.
* Chronic fatigue all-day long
...that can only be remedied with caffeine or sugar...and even then you likely feel like a zombie and wonder how you had so much energy when you were younger. You also daydream about taking naps after lunch and can’t make it through the afternoon “lull” without some type of pick-me-up.
* Feeling like a prisoner to your cravings
To the point where you know your food controls you, instead of the other way around. Especially if you’ve been battling cravings for years and haven’t been able to stay sugar-free for long periods of time.
* Out of whack blood sugar
That gives you headaches and makes you feel weak or dizzy. You also have trouble concentrating and wonder why sometimes it’s so hard to focus on what you’re doing.
* Weight loss feels impossible
Because you either gain weight consistently (no matter what) or you’re stuck at a frustrating plateau that won’t seem to budge...even when cutting back calories or exercising more.
It’s not just about calories though; sugar can wreak havoc on your hormones and organs...making weight loss biologically impossible.
* When you DON’T eat sugar, you feel deprived
And willpower is the only thing that keeps you from diving head first into the nearest bag of candy. You also feel like you’re on a diet and missing out on the foods you really want to eat...which is really the unhealthy bacteria begging you to feed it more sugar so it can grow faster.
