1.
SAY GOODBYE TO SUGARY DRINKS
TIP: Instead, opt for seltzer water, buy your own soda streamer, or choose unsweetened coffee.
2.
GIVE SUGARY JUNK FOODS THE BOOT!
TIP: incorporate high protein, fat and fiber foods that keep the body full for longer, like eggs, nuts, avocados and hummus.
3.
ELIMINATE SIMPLE CARBS
TIP: Vegetables are complex carbs, so they’ll keep you satisfied much longer than the simple kind. Adding in leafy greens is also a must!
4.
PINPOINT HIDDEN SUGARS
TIP: Watch out for whole-grain cereals, English muffins, low-fat salad dressings, store-bought smoothies, and yogurt.
5.
RETHINK DESSERT
TIP: try incorporating dark chocolate instead. Make sure to look for a bar that’s high in cacao, however.
6.
HYDRATE WITH WATER
TIP: Drinking enough water makes you feel full and flushes out excess sugar from the body, therefore keeping cravings at bay.
