Sugar addiction?

26 replies

I am having issues with binge eating and have started seeing a therapist. I am an alcoholic who is sober for years. Also an addict recently clean.

When I eat sugar or a lot of carbs I feel this ‘triggers’ me to overeat. Seem therapist on Monday who advised that sugar addiction is not a real thing and I need to learn to eat all foods in moderation.

Any thoughts?

I’m going to look at blood sugar stuff.

She wants me to go away from Diet mindset. I do too. Seen a dietician and just felt the advice was a bit outdated and like 1980’s WHO advice.

I think looking at macros with even protein, carbs and fat might be successful but I don’t really know where to start but I do want to stop the binging!

Thanks guys
