Hey y'all. I'm just getting started in the community portion of MFP. I've been using the app for about 3 weeks and I really like it. I am also currently starting acupuncture and trying to follow the dietary advice of my doctor. My issue is that I'm addicted to sugar. Any tips on how to curb my cravings for this evil substance?

    Maybe time to do a cleanse and restart your palate... There are several you can do, including juicing or just fruits and veggies.

    It's addicting and can be hard to kick sweets! Just takes time, just like any addiction. Also, remove any triggers and bad foods from ur home!

    Good luck! Shannon, ATL

    I'm in ATL, too, Shannon!

    I have started acupuncture and my doctor gave me a recipe for a cleansing smoothie. I just made it for the first time today. It tasted pretty good.

    Fruit is also my downfall. Mangos are like crack cocaine for me.
