04.06.2024 07:59
Many dieters consider sugar to be one of their biggest "enemies".
Excessive love of sweets really does prevent you from losing weight.
In order not to stop or slow down the process of getting rid of excess weight, it is advisable to reduce sugar consumption.
But what to do if you can’t ignore your favorite sweets, cakes, cookies, pies and chocolates?
It turns out that it is quite possible to reduce your cravings for sweets. To do this, you need to follow three simple rules.
A sudden refusal is not necessary
Don't try to immediately and completely forbid yourself from eating confectionery products.
Giving up sweets should be gradual. Abruptness will certainly lead to a "breakdown".
Reduce the amount of sugar you consume gradually. Then you will more easily switch to a healthy diet.
Eat healthy foods
The desire to eat something sweet is not always explained by the fact that the body needs another “portion of sugar”.
Often people confuse the craving for confectionery with a simple desire to eat or thirst.
Eat something healthy (cereals, vegetables) or drink a glass of water.
It often happens that a standard lunch and quenching of thirst relieves a person from cravings for sweets.
If you still have a sweet tooth, eat some honey or fruit.
Give up the habit of “eating away emotions”
Very often, the desire to eat confectionery is explained by a recently experienced stressful situation.
Perhaps it makes sense to distract yourself from troubles in other ways: go for a walk, do exercises, talk to a loved one, take a bath, watch a comedy...
Another cake will certainly reduce the stress level. But temporarily. And then, perhaps, the condition will become even worse.
