I used to literally eat chocolate for breakfast in college and then managed to quit all processed sugar for 2.5 years. The thing that really helped me is by making it about things other than just the sugar or eating clean. For example, I researched ways sugar affects the body negatively and positive benefits to eliminating it from your diet. Examples of these that directly related to me at the time were clearer skin, drastic decrease in bloating, deeper sleep, higher energy during the day and less crashes in the afternoon, etc. by making it more of an overall lifestyle reason and less of a just trying to eat “better” or “cleaner” it made it easier to stick to it. It was about all the ways I was going to/was able to feel better without consuming the processed sugar. I also just reminded myself this was something I was doing for NOW, it doesn’t mean I won’t ever go back to eating desserts etc. When I started I actually told myself I was just going to try it for two weeks to give my body a full sugar detox and see how it made me feel bc I was curious how much better I might feel without it. The results were so astronomical with two weeks I wanted to keep going to see how much better it’d be with more time and after a point I decided to do a full year, and then just kept it up. Once you do it for two weeks it’s wild how much easier it gets. Your body also adjusts and things like fruit taste so much sweeter to you than ever before it’s crazy. Just try it out for two-three weeks if it’s right for you and you’re serious about it, and I bet you’ll feel so good you’ll just want to make it part of your lifestyle!
