Kick your sugar habit at a steady pace

If you need to kick your sugar habit and it feels like a very large step, take your time.  Let’s face it, chances are you have been over indulging on sugar for many years so why would you expect to suddenly stop?  Make your change of lifestyle more manageable by a controlled and progressive change in your eating habits.

You don’t have to go from eating cakes and chocolate for your mid morning snack, lunch and dinner to a plate of salmon and vegetables overnight.  If instant withdrawal doesn’t work for you, instead eliminate a sugary food from your diet once a week.  Look to replace that food with a natural product, such as fruit and nuts or healthy vegetables.

It’s better to take 6 weeks to change your long term habits and ensure that your new eating habits last a lifetime then to jump in to a new regime that you find intolerable and fizzles out quick than you can unwrap a Mars bar.
