Life After Sugar

Martin was a guest on the Life After Sugar podcast on Episode 110 in February 2023. He’s back to ask me some questions about sugar, to talk about his new book, and also about the concept of an "irrevocable commitment".
Martin practises intermittent fasting. But he’s continued to have something sweet after dinner, which is a habit that goes back to childhood (nothing wrong with that!).
In this episode, we talk about:
Martin’s 66-day experiment without desserts and what he learned from it
How his thinking about the emotional connection he has with sweets changed
Moderating or abstaining from sugar, and why what works for one person may not work for another
Intermittent fasting, hunger and whether sugar affects fasting
GLP-1 medications and changing our behaviour around food
Martin's irrevocable commitment: You heard it here first!

Heike grew up in Germany eating lots of sugar and large portions, and she was overweight by the time she was a teenager.
After moving to the United States in her early 20s, she discovered a very different food environment than the one she was expecting. She was surprised by how much fast food, fried food, burgers, French fries and starch-heavy foods there were, and how little emphasis there seemed to be on vegetables.
In this episode, we talk about:
how some people can moderate sugar, and others have an all-or-nothing relationship with it and need to abstain
“choosing to choose” — taking responsibility for your food choices instead of feeling powerless around sugar
the diet culture, learning to trust yourself again, and finding an approach that works for you

Dr. Nathan Bryan has spent years researching human health and physiology... but during his medical training, he received zero dedicated training in nutrition.
In this episode, we talk about what he learned after his medical training and through his research, and how the nutritional quality of our food has degraded over time.
Dr. Nathan and I talk about how we consumers need to educate ourselves (which is easier said than done with all the confusing info out there!).
We also talk about sugar, insulin resistance, intermittent fasting, nutrient deficiencies, and whether supplements can help fill the gaps in our diet.
Dr. Nathan challenges some of the assumptions we’ve come to accept about nutrition and health, and explains what his research has taught him about what your body actually needs (hint: it's NOT sugar!).

You probably don't need another diet, another list of foods to avoid, or another reminder about what you already know you should be doing.
If you've been struggling with sugar cravings for years, the problem may not be a lack of information... or a lack of willpower.
It may be that you're trying to change a deeply ingrained pattern without the right process, support, and accountability.
In this episode, I explain why so many capable, motivated women can know exactly what they want to change and still find themselves back in the same cycle of cravings, restriction, giving in, and starting over. (I know — I've been there!)
I also explain what makes the Freedom from Cravings Formula different, and why having guidance while you actually implement the changes can make the process much more efficient and effective than trying to figure it all out on your own.
By the time you're 50, you've been dealing with sugar cravings for years. And you don't want to waste any more time and energy obsessing about food or your next sweet snack.
This episode will help you understand the missing piece and what it could look like to finally feel free from cravings.
And if you're wondering whether the Freedom from Cravings Formula could be the right fit for you, book free a call with me to talk about where you are now, where you want to be, and whether my approach can help you get there.

For Sharon, sugar was much more than a sweet treat.
Sugary foods were something she used to help her through all-nighters and cope with difficult times.
But eventually, she realized that sugar was was helping her cope with difficult relationships and family issues.
In this episode, Sharon shares her journey from eating brownie batter straight from the bowl to adopting a raw vegan lifestyle.
She talks about the difficult events that fuelled her sugar addiction, and the moment she realized she didn't want to spend the next 40 or 50 years feeling miserable.
Most importantly, Sharon explains how she came to see the connection between food, her emotions, her self-talk, and the rest of her life, and how getting off the sugar roller coaster became part of a much bigger shift in herself.
