8 Ways To Stop Sugar Cravings

If you have cleaned up your diet but still missing sugar 
it can be a tough at times.
 
 
 
 
Everyone will battle cravings from time to time.
 
So here are my 8 top 
tips to HALT those pesky cravings 
& stop them in their tracks.
When cravings sneak into your brain and you simply 
CANNOT think of anything else but devouring 
a GALAXY Bar / a whole jar of peanut butter/ 
monster packs of M & M’s or whatever it may be 
here are my  strategies..... 

1: Do a HIIT Workout.
A quick 10minute will flood 
your body and brain with happy hormones & a post 
workout high 
 
 


2:DRINK first.
You are more than likely
dehydrated  so drink a 1 litre 
of bottled water.
 
 


3:Eat more Vegetables.
Load up at on your veggies at every meal. 
Veggies are filling & are amazing sources of fibre.
They suppress hunger 
and keep you satisfied for longer.
 


4: Nuts.
If you are really craving sugar then choose nuts.
Not salted or roasted go for organic or natural.
Almonds, Hazelnuts, Cashews are fab.
 
 
 
5: STRESS will definitely play a massive role in your cravings. 
Try practising meditation on a daily basis.
Start with 2 minutes & build up 
your daily practice.



6: SLEEP is the body’s reset button and in the case of
sugar cravings 
insufficient sleep will drive your cravings into overdrive. 
Go to bed by 1030 & sleep in a bat cave switching 
of all infra-red stand bys & phones.
 
 


7: Use positive affirmations.
Have a daily mantra that you use 
and replay in your mind. It could be “I only choose to 
eat healthy food” and when faced with a craving focus on 
your mantra.
 
 
 
8: THINK FORWARD. I always “think forward”
& think about how I feel 
if I  cave and eat a bag of M & M’s/Galaxy/Peanut bar jar etc etc
 


I can recreate the feeling 
of bloatedness, feeling tired, sick even in my mind
and that is usually enough 
to snap me out of it.
