Gradually remove it from your diet. Decrease your intake day by day and it'll just naturally reset your tolerance. Eat dark chocolate that's got over 70% cocoa only.

Patience young scorpio. Quitting cold turkey never works.
Posted by EvoxxxscorpioPosted by SassyKiwilol there's no point eating 70% cacao with sugar might as well decrease whatever she's eating now and just add more water intake.Posted by EvoxxxscorpioPosted by SassyKiwiLol and no sugar.

I was just mentioning something that worked for me.. I swapped out like cookies for real dark chocolate to satisfy my craving. Clearly the latter was a healthier alternative.

I also do one more trick - I keep postponing eating the sweet until dinner, so I can eat less.
If i eat the sweet in the morning, I'll have to fight the urge all day and may end up eating again and again throughout the day... so I postpone until after dinner, and will have whatever less my stomach can accomodate after dinner :p
Posted by EvoxxxscorpioPosted by SassyKiwiNot saying it won't work cause obviously it worked for you but what works for you might not work for her. And speaking of cold turkey I was a heavy smoker back in high school suddenly I just stopped outta nowhere cause my cardio sucked ass btw I didn't cut down on it I just quit and got sick for a few months but never looked back.Posted by EvoxxxscorpioPosted by SassyKiwilol there's no point eating 70% cacao with sugar might as well decrease whatever she's eating now and just add more water intake.Posted by EvoxxxscorpioPosted by SassyKiwiLol and no sugar.

Whoa your scorp coming on way too strong... I never said anything about it absolutely working for her or not. I was just throwing out a suggestion because that's the only thing you can do on forums? I was making an assumption that the OP struggled with quitting cold turkey because that's the obvious thing people try first so I suggested her alternatives... bruh

It's the brain - that does the craving, a craving that has become a habit - so you you have to brake that pattern. Start by cutting the source: don't buy anymore sweets (except for dark chocolate : ), buy fruits and nuts instead. And also, the most common advice: drink lots of water!
The cravings will stop - once you'll get used to a new the pattern (life style 🙂.

Its not that I buy sweets all like that anyways, but if I am home alone on a snow night I will FIND ingredients lurking in the house to make some type of cookie or cake.
Fruit. Something healthier with a sweet taste to it. Juice, fruit, whatever, as long as it's not candy,sugar, etc.
Fruit (the riper the sweeater) if you eat something. Stevia extract if you want to eat or drink something.
I just remind myself of this video:
I'll eat biotin, fiber, & multi-vitamin gummies 'cuz they taste like Gushers without the juice, and calcium chews that taste like dreamsicles.
