Omg THANK YOU! Finally someone saying this! Sugar used to be my gateway drug too and especially as someone struggling with bulimia, quitting sugar is one of the things that really helped me dodging the binge eating attacks. I don't get why nowadays you almost get cancelled for saying that sugar is really not doing anything for you and your body than a quick dopamine rush... It is the truth!

I think the reason why so many people seem to be hyper sensitive about any type of good dietary change that you do is because the body positivity movement is now backed up by companies who actively lobby to keep us eating their high calorie high sugar foods. We have an obesity epidemic but if you dare point out that eating yourself to death is not good you get cancelled like????

[@dnicole1391]

The people who get mad at you for having strict boundaries around sugar either: 1) have such a healthy relationship with food/sugar, they can’t fathom compulsive eating and why some us need strict boundaries 2) have an unhealthy relationship with food/sugar and are in deep denial of their own addiction

[@realSimoneCherie]

1 is so true.

I'm Japanese and I don't really understand neither mindset nor grammar of "whining over even a compliment" thing of westerners 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ I'm from a country MAJORITY of people are in love with white skin and almost hate dark skin tones. And even this couldn't make me hate on any color cause me as an individual can have unique or different thoughts from my people. But some Americans/foreigners really CAN make me feel like "never mind maybe I shouldn't" with their overly ridiculously sensitive reactions.

[@khanyisatv]

⁠@@yumihara14That last statement was really telling of your mindset. If you’re the kind of person to revoke your allyship to dark skinned people of color because someone on the internet annoyed you, then it wasn’t real to begin with. Your initial comment was meant as a compliment and because of certain racial stereotypes within the US that you might not be privy to, someone took it offensively. Instead of stepping back and acknowledging that there might be more for you to learn in this situation, you choose to lash out & threaten to revoke your support. Things like that shouldn’t be conditional. I can understand your frustration when you meant no harm but that response still isn’t right.

Former Type 2 Diabetic here and I can confirm with you that sugar is the enemy. Once I weaned myself off consuming an abundance of sugar (not all of it, but a whole lot) and carbohydrates, the blood sugar was lowered in no time flat and today the diabetes and kidney disease are in complete remission. For that I'm grateful and I'm never going back. Great video, by the way.

[@themermaidjade]

Im so soo happy for you 🥹 You’re an inspiration to me and so many others, thank you for sharing 💖

[@charlotteknutsen7262]

So nice to hear that your diabetes is in remission. I'm a sugar addict/binge eater and I'm really working at changing my eating habits. I've had raised sugars in a fasting blood test. I do not want to crossover into diabetes 2 just because I just HAD to have minute or 2 of pleasure while eating sugar and lot's of junk food.

[@TryinBin8889]

Another tip I have when it comes to food is to consider what the purpose of eating such a food is. If you're about to eat lunch and you go for the croissant, ask yourself "why am I eating this?" If it's for sustainance, then the croissant probably isn't the right choice. But if you're at a birthday party and grab a slice of cake, the answer is 'celebratory'. Then when you go back for another slice of cake, you can say 'well I've already eaten my celebratory slice of cake.' I found mindfully thinking about the purpose of what I was eating meant I ate healthy meals and food, while simultaneously being able to let myself enjoy a limited range of sweets when I went out for something special. I would use three categories: sustainance, celebratory, and boredom as an example

[@amrin3457]

This is a really great point, thank you!

[@gbdaboss]

[@maaanuervin]

[@rosiedispensa6697]

I’ve always believed unhealthy food should be used as a special treat, like I’m not going to have desert every day but if I’m at the fair I’ll have a churro for the experience. But as I’ve gotten older and life is more stressful, there’s more and more “treats” creeping in. Like a croissant on Saturday morning, and cookies to go with my tea at night as a relaxing treat, then an olipop or ice coffee in the afternoon as a treat to get me through the work day, it’s not boredom, it’s like a reward but I feel I need them all the time now, it’s hard to untangle when I should really have those treats when I do work really hard all week. If you have any advice I’d love to hear it!

[@sagqueen1984]

I just started my journey again today. I feel like I can't control myself. Eating a little is never enough. I have to go completely without. I would sit here and look at my children and think I'm about to let sugar take me out of their lives. That's how bad it got. When you cry about something that has so much control over you, you have to really sit and think about your choices.

Sugar is an inflammatory. If I have too much of it, it causes my fibromyalgia to flare up. This flares can last between 3 days and 2 weeks.

[@21tyson55]

Sugar is very, very inflammatory. Didn’t realize why I had lower back pain even in my teen years until cutting the processed junk. When I fell off the wagon the back pain came back. Direct correlation.

[@topsecret8989]

I stopped eating sugar last year, but at Christmas time I couldn't stop, so I tried this year again. It was way easier and my skin became so much clearer than before. I'm not missing sugar anymore. If I taste those sweets I'm personally thinking, that it's kinda too sweet, so I don't even like it anymore. Thank you for your videos ^^

[@themermaidjade]

Yeah after a while you literally don’t have the taste for sweets anymore

[@SG-xb7de]

How long did u deprive yourself of sugar till you got to the point that you dislike it? Did u also eliminate fruit sugar, dates, raisins & artificial sweeteners? I'm just getting so hopeless! lol

For everyone saying sugar doesn’t harm at all… when you eat enough sugar that it spikes your blood sugar the sugar attaches to your collagen protein and destroy it through a process called glycation effectively aging you. If you can handle moderation awesome but I am 100% in the same boat of it being like an addiction. 😅

[@themermaidjade]

Sometimes we have that one bad habit that if we can fix causes a domino effect and improves other areas of our lives. For me it’s sugar and alcohol. Less of those 2 things and I naturally eat less junk, sleep better, look better in my body, better skin, have more energy and a clearer mind!

[@joanuba7710]

Sugar is the enemy , no need sugar coating it for them sis , I use to eat a dozen of snickers when I was younger, my skin and body looked so horrible when I look back at old pictures, now that I’m older knowing I’m a sugar tooth I had to figure out how to make healthy snacks 😭 now my skin and body be popping

[@marinaarellano436]

I actually LOVE this advice. Obviously, different things will work for different people, but I tried this same thing and it worked for me. I went one month without excess added sugar and I mainly focused on cutting out sweets. By the end of the month, I couldn't even finish a small ice cream because it was too sweet for me. I had to get rid of the addiction first before I could really focus on eating healthier. It also got a lot easier to not eat sugar that month because I made the decision to just not have any. When I saw something sweet, I didn't have to use my willpower to make a decision whether or not to eat it, I just knew that I had already made the choice to not even consider eating it, so it didn't take as much discipline

[@themermaidjade]

Literally my exact experience!

It took me a long time to realize I do use sugar as a crutch. I really understand when you say sugar is there whenever I’m sad or happy or stressed,… trying to distract or redirect my emotions into other things besides sweets.

this morning i had an awful binge on sugary foods and right now ive decided that i’ll quit sugar for a while until my i can learn how to control myself, i was able to go sugar free for two months and honestly i should do it again. its kinda heard especially as a 16 years still living at home, and yk social events, people pressuring you and stuff.

Everyone has different priorities in life, different bodies and behaviours around food too. Once I realised I can’t base my food decisions on what others are doing, I was able to give my body what I truly needed. Hope this helps 💜

Its crazy how easy it is to go over daily sugar intake. I just calculated my breakfast and already half way over my limit.

[@freddycooks]

I am absolutely demonizing sugar. No one in their RIGHT MIND can honestly say sugar is good for you in any sense. Sure, you can still lose weight and eat sugar, but it is a major setback, and it depends on individual genetics, how much weight you have to lose, how much sugar you are eating and what method you are using to lose weight.

[@catherine.rome.]

Perfect timing! I had such an unhealthy relationship with sugar my entire life and now that I'm older and know better, I am attempting to rid of it. Unfortunately, my body is extremely adjusted to it. In ways I'm not scientifically aware of, but I can feel. My body is so adapted to using it as energy and a dopamine release, I LITERALLY crash without it. (like a drug addict or something)

[@RileyDebernarde]

I can see how some people, sugar isn’t a big deal to them but from someone with adhd which makes my brain always crave outside sources of dopamine + addictive personality I cannot have it casually without depending on it, I lost 25-30 pounds cutting out fast food,chips and candy. this year I wanted to take a step further to cut out added sugar and have it on special occasions in moderation (like my birthday, certain holidays) that’s what I found works for me and then eventually I just wont even want sugar, the more I have it the more I crave it it’s the truth. ur channel helps me so much sugar has no nutritional value and does not serve us to have every day couple times a year at most or even not at all u aren’t demonizing it it is the truth.

[@jessicarainbow9723]

My family nickname was "sugar junkie". If I can overcome a toxic relationship with chocolate, honestly anyone can. You can do it. I work in health and the scientific evidence is now compelling, too much added sugar, artificial sweeteners, ultra processed foods, can lead to weight gain and serious disease. Thank you for sharing this Jade and here's to a diet rich in healthy foods and a bright future.

[@themermaidjade]

Amen!

[@MBlto]

i've been exercising and eating healthy my whole life, never had a sweet tooth either but last month i moved to a new city for university and somehow being alone for the first time and the consequent stress sent me into a sugar craze, i ate so much sweets and gained even more weight after the holidays :/ so yes i need to clean my brain from this sugar fixation because it doesn't even satisfy me and it makes me crave for more. i totally understand your point, for some people it's hard to reduce sugar intake gradually and they need to cut it off completely at least for a while. I'm rewatching a lot of your videos for tips so thank you

[@pawzawu]

a problem i have usually is that i freak out about "missing" the food, like if my mom were to make unhealthy food, i feel bad about not eating it and feel as if i'll miss it; or if she gives me candy, i usually have to eat it unless my little sister does first. i now notice i shouldnt be panicking over this and that at anytime, i can just buy it for myself later. it isnt going anywhere.

[@HERHEATWAVES]

I agree with you, just because cutting out sugar doesn’t work for someone or just because sugar isn’t a demon to someone doesn’t mean it isn’t one for someone else. I have the demon of sugar cravings chasing after me and it hurts so bad. I always gain many pounds from sugar and have sugar cravings very often. Sugar is definitely an enemy for most even if someone tries to deny it and there are also some people who yes they need more sugar in the diets. Thanks for posting these videos and always giving the truth and never SUGARcoating it lol 😂

Since switching my diet and cutting down on refined sugars ive noticed how im less bloated. I think its important to note that even fruit has has sugar, but its ultra processed foods that are bad. I also make sure to eat enough and not snack after supper or at night. Lots of water. It makes a whole difference. I never realized how terrible ultra processed foods make you feel

[@ccturner8224]

You are wise beyond your years! I am so addicted! 53 years old, overweight at the worst possible time of life, and I honestly am convinced I'm the only person who struggles with it because I'm in denial and find all the reasons why I can't stop as well as, 'I'll start tomorrow or after this huge bag of MMS is gone (which is the end.of today....not tomorrow!). How aggravating this is. I'm not addicted to Lima beans! I can easily live without tripe and tofu! I wish I thought about sugar like I do those things. Thank you for spending your time making a lovely video. I think I have found a little more courage.

[@heavenlyflower_sl]

[@xeniasacharin5704]

Thank you so much Jade. Im struggling with fat loss for a year now, there were many up and downs while trying out different strategies like intermittent fasting but non of them worked for me. It wasn’t even the „lack of discipline“, sugar completely ruins your self control and it’s literally impossible to manage that, especially when you’re in a calorie deficit and still eating sweets. I recently found out that sugar was really the problem, because I often find myself craving for at least a peace of chocolate after a balanced meal, that‘s supposed to make me feel satisfied without wanting sugar after. I’ve been struggling this week by eating an amount of sugar that makes me feel bad (physically) and not even satisfied. You just feel tired after few minutes and get an energy crash, because of the insulin that shoots up and down. This in turn means that you don't feel like doing anything because you feel tired and exhausted. And later everything starts over again. I’m sick of it and want to change this bad habit, even if it’s going to be really hard. Especially when being around family or friends. Thank you Jade, you always post your videos at the right time.

[@impartialeggplant4438]

The nip it in the bud technique sounds super helpful. I def ask myself whether i should go eat seconds or eat dessert when im not even hungry. Im SO going to try it.

[@thejessifar4619]

I appreciate your nuance when it comes to your experience with sugar. While moderations works for some, it doesn’t work for others, and both are okay. What matters is experimenting and finding what works best for you. What worked for me personally was not to treat sugar as “bad” (therefore it would create “forbidden apple syndrome” and I’d crave it more). Rather, I treated it as unnecessary and easily replaceable with something that had more nutritious value (like fruit and the vitamins/fiber that comes with them). But I can’t treat my experience as proof that moderation works for everyone, especially considering that sugar does have addictive qualities to many people. Thanks for your video. 😊

[@zaubia3677]

I’ve been on keto for a little over a week, going on two weeks and have stuck to a strict diet and I already see a difference (without exercise). I don’t plan on staying in keto permanently, but it’s amazing what your body will go through once you cut sugar. I also wonder what will happen if I stick to keto and incorporate exercise. Don’t get me wrong, it’s been tough. Some days I just want to indulge, but I’ve come so far and do not want to ruin it because I can’t have at cookie. I look and feel better. My skin behaves better, my gut feels better and I’m losing belly fat. I feel like people have to come to a point where they simply have had enough of the same poor behaviors. I got tired of complaining about myself, tired of feeling guilty for over indulging, totally tired of the gut issues, etc. I got more desperate for change than sugar. It’s possible and if you want it badly enough, you’ll make it happen. 🙏🏾

[@kphoria1009]

a sugar addiction is one of the hardest things to get rid of because it’s EVERYWHERE. as someone who is underweight everyone tells me i don’t need to go on a diet or cut sugar from my diet because i need the extra calories, so they just shove food in my face. but they don’t understand that it’s not helping me become healthier

When I cut out all sugar except fresh fruit for 5 months I realized how listening to my body when it was hungry and satiated was actually supposed to work. I feel like it’s something we should all do once. If sugar’s not a problem, give it up for a few weeks and go back to it. What’s the harm in going without, if there’s no side effects but possible withdrawal from the thing you thought you weren’t addicted to? Lol

I literally have been constantly pleading. My fascination was sugar and a possible dictionary. I've gone off of sugar. Just even sugary drinks juice mainly. I don't really drink soda. I can control that meaning it could go a whole year and I wouldn't want but juice is a struggle for me. I'd try not to even buy it and put it in the house. I think sometimes it's hard when you live with people. Because people bring temptation along with them ice cream cake. Lovett my weakness and chocolate with nuts in it. My weakness candy not so much. I can cut back but juice is definitely one thing. I want to drink less really if I could drink. Milk you said all and only eat fruits when wanting sugar. Because fruits are healthy. That would be the best thing for me. Always struggle to lose Wait even though I stay in the gym. For my body type. I need to be strict and now compromising.

Such a good video!!! The trying to take one bite and put it back for "later" that took me out! Later WHERE?!? haha! When I cut out sugar and started eating more intentionally even my nail technician was amazed at my weight loss, all I did was cut back on fast food, sugar (I have a sweet tooth) and more plant based foods and exercise. Was it a struggle initially yeah, but after 2 weeks I noticed changes. More videos like this please :)

[@LaBiso24]

Wow you’re so inspirational!

Thank you so much for this video! I used to be a major sugar addict and it is why I had gained so much weight. Sugar only makes you crave more sugar so best believe my sugar addiction was bleeding into binging. I would buy a family sized bag of jalapeno chips and eat the entire bag plus half a box of cheezits and a hearty dinner without counting my serving of rice on the side and *no greens*. I would take candies from every complimentary basket I could find (I was a college senior at my biggest) and my pockets at any given time were full of candy wrappers. I’m talking…at least 5 fun sized candies per pocket. I am almost 30lbs down from my biggest and 23lbs away from my goal weight. Biggest thing for me was actually starting to track calories and cutting everything out completely until I had the willpower to eat it again. I can now safely have cheezits in my house and eat one serving (or two) while watching tv and put the box away. Tracking calories and seeing my macros saved me. I realized the sweets and snacks were so many calories for so little sustenance, I was eating so much but still constantly hungry. Hearing other’s stories with sugar addiction makes me feel vindicated and it makes me feel less alone. So thank you so so much. The girls that get it, get it.

[@HeyItsMaori]

I felt that. I am working on making yogurt bark or protein balls to get a little bit of sweetness in different ways.

[@ccbutterfly1104]

So true sis! I have a sugar addition and trying to kick it, so THANK YOU!!!!

[@aleksandra930]

I agree 100%! Quitting sugar was a game changer for me too. I finally managed to lose weight.

[@Lalybellule-]

Thank you for the helpful video !

[@yoloxoxo4042]

This was a good video. About a week ago I decided that I’m done with sugar which over the years since I had so many ups and downs… coming out of a down it was easy to do. I wasn’t in a horrid spot lol I’ve seen worse of myself but the things that I would do is eat a lot of the same things like popcorn and cashews like even if it was healthy but gave me the comfort food vibe that has been stalking me. So on top of the no more sugar I eliminated the things that make me want them as well as the corn syrups no more corn no more popcorn even sorghum. Not buying it to bring in the house anymore. If I happen to have a little while out I will so it’s not torture and it’s not something I’ll plan for… it’ll be on occasion and rare. Thanks for your vid just wanted to share my tip to

[@b913v]

[@victoriaalvarado331]

Yes! Totally agree, it was sugar for me!

[@nnennacrockett9937]

This is my relationship with sugar exactly! I have been having blood pressure issues here and there and guess what sends my blood pressure up? Sugar! as long as I control my sugar intake I literally can eat as much salt as I want.

[@carmencatalina9086]

This is helpful. My downfall was meat and been eating less and sugar is next.
