Eliminating sugar from your diet won’t only have a profound effect on weight loss, but it will also help cure many of your health issues. While it’s all good and well to cut sugar out of your diet, maintaining a constant distance from it can be a challenge — although not impossible.
I battled my sugar addiction for a very long time. Sugar would be part of every meal, and I would lie to myself about my healthy eating habits. There is nothing healthy about having refined sugar or products containing it, in any parts of your diet. I was always experiencing mood swings, my face had pigmentation patches, and I would regularly break out. I also had many bouts of tonsilitis, which would leave me bedridden for days on end, and I would always resort to antibiotics because it would never go away. I was also very close to having gestational diabetes when I was pregnant with my daughter. You would think all of these instances had me running away from sugar — but the addiction was too deep and I had no will to cut it out.
Until I had experienced some health issues continuously, I decided I wanted to get stage ready for physique competitions. That involved a complete 360 of my diet and lifestyle. Never did I think, in my wildest dreams that I could eliminate sugar from my diet. It seemed like it had the mightiest pull on me.
