QuestionMy names Kelsey and im going to be 15 soon. Ive been skinny my whole life and everybody tells me that but I noticed ive been gaining weight. Not a lot of weight but its getting to the point where im a little uncomfortable. I only want to loose some weight. But the thing is that like every ten minutes I get this craving for junk food even when im not hungry and it happens a lot when im bored. This is affecting me wanting to loose weight because im eating all the junk food in the house now. haha. Ive asked my dad to stop buying junk but he keeps forgetting and i shuld atleast be able to leave the junk food in the cupboards. Do you have any tips for me to stop eating junk?
AnswerHI Kelsey,
The deal is to separate real hunger for real food from chemical cravings - the difference between your body telling you what you need and the designed noise of refined sugar and refined flour. Refined sugar has been clinically proven to be as addictive as nicotine and cocaine. It is added to almost all packaged foods, more for the addictive qualities than taste. There was no diabetes before refined sugar, and it is linked to a wide range of diseases from bone loss, brain loss, athlete's foot, etc.
The good news is that you switch to real food - whole grains and fresh produce - and the sugar gimmes go away in a month max. Squirrel some raw, not roasted, nuts, and some unsweetened raisins (I don't leave home without some) besides apples, bananas, carrots...
