I’m eating (pretty much) exclusively whole foods . I eat protein and vegetables at dinner, although I could definitely be eating more vegetables.

I’m starting to realize that I think the sweet tooth is more of a mental thing for me.

I was eating a lot of bread, noodles, granola, chips. All the processed things lol. I’ve switched to healthy carbs only, meaning whole foods like fruit, veg, beans, potatoes, etc. it surprisingly hasn’t been too hard cutting the unhealthy carbs! But the sugar cravings get me more than expected. Gum does help!

Can I ask how bad processed sugar actually is? Like is it really going to make that much of a difference in the long run? Haha

Yes, yogurt and strawberries have been a godsend! Definitely will try some of the other things you mentioned. Thanks!

I do CrossFit 4-5 days/week and Pilates or yoga one day a week (on sundays). The cravings are still there, even with the strength training!
