So pretty much as the title says, I’m having a hard time quitting sugar/sweets etc.. I’ve partied my ass off and lived a shitty lifestyle getting into all kinds of shit and all that was WAY easier to quit than not eating cake or cookies or ice cream and chocolate etc lol... Ever since really measuring my food about a month or so ago I was able to see where I’m really at and I’ve fixed my protein intake significantly and thought I might as well start cutting out the junk but fuck is it hard!
I don’t eat bad all day, my diet has a lot of veggies and fruits, sweet potatoes, elk, grass fed beef, deer, chicken, mahi mahi, rice, whole eggs from my chickens in my yard, egg white protein, beans, pasta, turkey, avocados etc.. Not a specific type of diet but just an overall balanced diet of good foods, my only goal is to hit 250g of protein a day and to stay within my calorie maintenance of around 3k per day..
But I’ll find myself hitting that protein goal and sometimes I’ll have 500-700 calories left over and then I’ll go FUCKING BANANAS on some cookies and chocolate or cake etc.. And I don’t really pass the calories into a surplus but damn I wish I could clean it up and just pack in some extra protein or healthier snacks into those calories.. I just love food and sweets lol..
Any tips on how to quit the sugar and bullshit? I’m not trying to quit completely and go into like a prep mode but damn, I eat like that every day and if I could cut it back to the weekends only or something I feel like I’d perform, feel and look better too..
