The cause of sugar addiction is not always just the sugar.
Yes, there is a physical addiction, but why are you eating the
sugar in the first place?
Sugary treats are a quick,easy way of distracting ourselves from our current discomfort; which makes the problem worse in the long run.
Instead of trying to resort to willpower, which doesn't usually
work long term, ask yourself "why am I feeling this unease?
Some possible reasons:
*Boredom
*Stress
*Lack of nutrients
*Loneliness
*Dissatisfaction with a job or other situation in your life
*Feeling overwhelmed
Any yes, eating sugar causes your blood sugar to be unbalanced
so that you need even more sugar.
The cycle can be broken. I know I broke my cycle of sugar addiction.
But I didn't get permanent results until I dealt with the emotional reasons
and replaced the nutrients I was missing.
It feels so much better on this side of a sugar addiction.
If you are using food as a distraction and would like help breaking the cycle of your sugar cravings, I would love to help.
