    I learned this from an elder so o hope it helps some body : never “quit” anything , once you tell your self you quit something you become stressed . You don’t quit smoking cigarettes you “stop” smoking cigarettes . That’s the key to the start of quitting , it’s not the entirety but it’s a great starting tip !

    • @laaaliiiluuu
      @laaaliiiluuu 4 года назад +45

      @Moonlight io The secret is not to not think of quitting but to think of the alternative instead. So instead of saying "I quit sugar" or "I shouldn't think of sugar" you just say "I live healthy now" and then you just focus on the healthy lifestyle and as a side effect you don't eat sugar anymore.
      Maybe this analogy helps: "If you want apples, don't focus on the apples. Focus on nurturing an apple tree and you get apples as a consequence."
      Focus on a healthy life and you will live automatically without sugar as a consequence because your focus is completely involved with health, meaning, you don't have to not think about sugar anymore because you are already ignoring it as it was never on your mind in the first place.

    and if you cant quit sweets. Only eat sweets you made yourself. That way you'll have to put in effort to get your reward. And by making sweets from scratch you can make sure no werid stuff is added in.
    Same goes for salty snacks. Craving chips? Make them.

      Kaitlyn Tylar the music behind the pictures of the hamburger makes me want to never eat one again...he’s playing like horror music in the background. Maybe it’s just because I am a music freak but the music was upsetting when it was before something like junk food. I think that is what the point was. To mix something we see as great with upsetting sounds makes the things we’re seeing less appealing. In my opinion.

I have not been sick a day for 11 months despite everyone else in my family getting colds and the stomach flu. I feel great at 56 years old and have dropped from a 34" to a 32" waist.

      Try replacing the dessert with something that feels similar. For dessert I will often have a little bowl of sesame butter sweetened with glycerin and add hot melted butter. Sometimes I add flavoring too. Adds fat, tiny bit of sweetness and mouthfeel. So when I think about desserts and then remember that I can have my sesame butter, it makes me feel better and crave the sweet less. I'm guessing a small bowl of whipped cream would do the trick too.

    I gave up sugar last summer and those first two weeks I experienced severe withdrawal symptoms. Afterwards, I felt better. Then a month afterwards, I felt 10 years younger! Two months afterwards I realized I hadn't come down with the cold since I quit sugar. Then came the holidays and I really fell off the wagon. The more sugar you eat, the less satisfying it is and the more amounts you crave. Now, the end of January and I am getting over my 4th cold in 2 months and I came back to this video in order to quit again. Thank you for posting this, it is helping me and I am certain many other people are being helped as well.

    I've gone from eating cakes, biscuits & chocolate daily to almost completely cutting out added sugars.
    I haven't tried to completely cut it out because I realise it's a big task.. I'm still eating bread, which I need at the moment to make sure I eat breakfast & lunch. Maybe soon I can change bread for something else.
    My sugar fix is coming from raisins & fruit, but after about 2 weeks, it's not even a fix any more, just a part of my diet.
    I did notice I was getting headaches, but this explains it.
    When I'm comfortable with a complete no-added sugar diet, I'm going after the nicotine. I'll be irrepressible!

    As a type 1 diabetic, I "accidentally" found out that keeping a food diary that you update on the go, and not after the fact, keeps me from over eating or eating things in larger portions than I intended. I weigh the food, calculate the carbs and take the required dose of insulin for the food - now I know exactly how much I will eat. I can't eat more than this, because I have dosed my insulin for the meal I'm eating, and if I want more, I have to go through the entire cumbersome process all over again (something I'm usually not inclined to do).
    Maybe non-diabetics could start a similar routine without actually injecting insulin, of course? Weigh the food, calculate some macronutrient (like carbs) and write it down and then eat. And start this process over if you want seconds - it keeps you mindful of what and how much you eat. :)

      Have you considered that the only reason we need the insulin is for food that have carbs or sugar in them ? Suppose we stopped eating those foods, afterall, the body has no need of sugar or carbs, none, there is no essential carb and the few part of the body that need some sugar have sugar made for them by the body itself. so, then there is no more need for insulin, right ~?

    • @xylaardhiafiorina6844
      @xylaardhiafiorina6844 6 лет назад

      yes, getting a food journal app that calculates macronutrients and keeps track of your calories can help tremendously. adapting your method for non-diabetics might look like planning the day's food in advance in the app, or planning your portion before you eat it and recording it in the app. It's not as high stakes of course, but it's an idea. I've used MyPlate (nospon lol) for just a week just to record and analyze my meals, and it's extremely insightful.

    The analogy with quitting smoking is apt and the importance of understanding how one won't be giving up anything useful by quitting smoking or sugar cannot be understated. I really tried for a long time to quit smoking but never succeeded until I came to believe that quitting is a 100% gain, no losses involved. I quit cold turkey but kept some nicotine patches on hand in case some kind of craving seemed too great. After a day or two I knew I had beat the addiction and threw my patches in the trash. The relief of quitting was so great that I cried. I haven't touched a tobacco product since but I do occasionally refresh what I learned about the addiction and its effects. Quitting processed sugars is similar but much easier and it is videos like this which provide the knowledge needed develop the frame of mind which makes quitting easier.

    The key to quitting any addiction is to find healthy substitutes which give you as much pleasure. (e.g., substitute sweet fruits such as Envy apples for processed sugar).

    I didn’t eat sugar for a weak and I had extreme fatigue, headaches, and muscle tiredness. I drank some coffee and teas with stevia and had a stevia chocolate at one point. When I went to a breakfast spot I ordered a pancake and a salad..after a week I was super scared because I know that I’m trying to lose weight and get off the sugar train but surprisingly I didn’t finish the pancake (with no syrup) and usually I can down about two.. I also ate most of my salad first (the dressing probably had a bit of sugar not sure). It also felt super sweet.. and then I went to the movie theater and just watched the movie.. no popcorn, no chips, no snacks, no cold drink I was like who am I becoming? Lol but seriously, I’m so happy that I’ve been trying to implement these changes. I see the possibilities of cutting out sugar for overall health already. Videos like these help me to really keep pushing. I don’t want my kids to have sugar addicted childhoods like I did .. I had no clue what I was doing to my body for years. And neither did my parents! Love the info.

    I found zero effort to cut out food with added sugars. no cravings. I think it helps I ate relatively healthy before so maybe a gradual approach might also work for some. going much higher fat is also a huge help. I lost all my excess weight which was only a few KGS in a couple of weeks though since I upped fat, cut sugar and reduced grain consumption. it also doesn't have to be an all or nothing thing. every few weeks I might have a really nice piece of cake or something and it is really special and savored. I save my occasions of sugar to be really intentional, rare and high quality foods, not junk.

    I was once a soda addict, but it wasn't just the sugar. When attempting to go from soda to water, I eventually failed. But going from soda to non-sweetened carbonated lime water worked. I really like the burn of carbonation and that helped wean me off daily soda intake.
    Much in the same way, if quitting smoking, replacing it with vaping is frequently effective. My grandmother smoked for 50 years or so before she started vaping and then finally quitting altogether.
