wanting it does not mean you will eat it.

just accept psychologically you will want it. and you will be uncomfortable. and dont eat it. just tell yourself no. no debate.

you msthave experienced things in the past that yo wanted and could simply not have.

so just accept you can not have it.

sweets are not good for you in any way. unnecessary and if you're on a diet your calories cont very much for your nutrition. eating junk will be robbing you of important nutrients you could easily be lacking given you're cutting calories.

just dont do it. dont cater to it. dont try to be nice about it. dont play mind games or trick yourself into not wanting it. accept you want it and accept you will not have it.

just say NO. and go do something more interesting than eating whenever you want 'sweets'.

and dk what you're eating now but avoid processed and even naturally sweet foods, until your body recognizes what sweet really means. sweets re so far beyond anything you'll find appealing once you get used to not having it. its really pretty gross how sweet most foods are.

You can have whatever you want, if you taste every bite. It works. Just watch this.

Grapefruit?

Nope, tasting every bite of everything you eat. It means don't diet, because that isn't a lifestyle change, it's a temporary mindset. If you slow down, and slowly chew and taste each bite of everything you eat, you become more satisfied. This is a lifestyle change, where you eat less without having to inhumanly give up food you love. Because I don't know about you but if i'm told not to eat something, aka chocolate, it's exactly chocolate that i will crave. Bettter to just not have to avoid foods

Well you're right actually , but i wanna cut it out at least a month

[GoodManDave]

Ugh. I have a sweet tooth, so... I try to keep it from getting too bad. Basically, I try to avoid too much candy being super available to me. I have 4/5 brands, that I love and only one or two that I generally keep in the house, and it's "me." I've got huge containers of atomic fireballs, and I keep a bit of Pez, though that's more of "an ice breaker" kind of thing. I keep it to one or two a day.

I love pop, though too much of it can be bad for my system. I try to keep caffeine or pop to once a week.

I've heard that if you cut it completely out of your system that when you do have some, it starts tasting bad, though I don't have much personal experience with this one.

Try eating them in the morning. You'll have less cravings for them throughout the day and you will actually be able to digest and absorb the nutrients in the morning as opposed to eating them later in the day and storing them as fat. Fucking high glycemic foods lol

What really helps is just cutting out sugar for a while, if u can do it this would be the best option, let ur taste buds re adjust and cut them out for at lay a month, ur tounge will acclimate to more "natural" flavors and when u return to sweets um you'll find everything 10x sweeter than b4, just moderate when u do come back or you'll have to start over again

if you want to eat sweet stuff...eat fruits.they are much better

[Asker]

I tried , it didn't help :(

[zombiebabe]

eat dried fruit they are more sweet than fresh ones

[Ocicatlvr]

everything in moderation is good for you. so allow yourself 1 cheat day per week

I think it's just a girl thing. Guys like out salty fatty meat :)

[Asker]

Lol , that didn't help at all

[NoblesseOblige]

I guess give in but drink diet coke.

[PhiOmega]

I lost my taste for sweet. It may be partly genetic. I think you need to train your body to prefer slow burning energy from starch and protein. Eat savory food and water hopefully that helps.
