Problem: Article: Protein, fat, and fiber are highly satiating and will help you keep your blood sugar stable. For breakfast, this means eggs for protein and whole grains for fiber. Olive oil and avocado provide healthy fats.  Consider an omelette with peppers, onions, turkey, and tomato that's drizzled with olive oil or that has a sliced avocado on top. That's a quick and easy breakfast option that will leave you feeling full for hours and provide a healthy amount of protein, fat, and fiber. Oatmeal with dried fruit and nuts – especially almonds – is another way to get the protein, fat, and fiber you need to satisfy your body. Exercise is one of the easiest – and most effective – ways to reduce sugar cravings and keep your energy levels up. Try to get at least 20 to 30 minutes of cardiovascular exercise every day.  If your not currently physically active or if you are elderly, then take a 15-minute walk in the morning and then another in the evening. This amount of activity should be sufficient to maintain a healthy activity level. However, if you are physically active and/or young, then you should strive to get more physical activity than this. You should also include some weight training in your exercise regimen. Add strength training to build muscle mass and start burning belly fat, which excess sugar helps create. When you get a craving for sweets, take a minute to go for a walk or run up and down a flight of stairs. After exercise, your body craves salt, not sugar, so this can help you control those cravings while you're trying to cut back on sugar. Nutritional deficiencies sometimes hide behind sugar cravings, making you feel like you need something sweet when really the need lies elsewhere. Get in the habit of taking a good-quality multivitamin every morning after eating breakfast.  Studies have shown that chromium, Vitamin B3, and magnesium are particularly instrumental in helping your body control blood sugar.  Typically the fewer nutritional deficiencies you have, the fewer cravings you will have, making it easier for you to weaken the grip that sugar has on your body and mind. If you have any significant health problems or chronic medical conditions, you should consult your doctor for recommendations on a vitamin that would work for you and not interfere with your condition or any prescription medications. Sleep deprivation can disrupt your normal hormone levels and cause you to think you're hungry when you're really not. Making sure you get between 6 and 8 hours of sleep each night can help you avoid sugar cravings while you're cutting back.  Keep in mind that your brain associates sugar consumption with a burst of energy. So if you're tired or fatigued, your brain is going to tell you that you want something sweet. However, if you're well-rested and intersperse activity throughout your day, you'll be less likely to start thinking you need sugar to keep going. Additionally, getting too little sleep can cause tension, stress, and anxiety, all of which may increase your craving for sugar. Aside from it being generally important to keep your body well hydrated, drinking water can reduce or eliminate your cravings for sugar. Often your brain tells you that you're hungry when really you just need water.  Drinking a large glass of water before meals can help reduce your appetite, which may be important if you're trying to lose weight. If you have a craving for a sweet or sugary treat, drink a large glass of water and wait for five minutes. You may want to go for a walk or do something to take your mind off your craving. After five minutes has elapsed, you may find that your craving is gone.
Summary: Eat a breakfast high in protein, fiber and healthy fat. Stay active. Take a multivitamin. Get sufficient sleep. Drink lots of water.
