    Sugar addiction is a mfer. I have an absolute sweet tooth. What works for me is....everything in moderation including moderation. Working out is key too. Once I start working out,it seems to change everything including eating habits.

      Totally agree. It helps me to workout. After I have beasted myself, I can't bear the thought of having to carry around what I have eaten on the next workout.

    Binge watching your videos, I’ve had weight/body issues since I can remember. Coming from a Hispanic family that would body shame all the time. I watched your videos since I was 12 trying to get “skinny” I’m 30 and you’ve helped me get in the best shape of my life once and I know it can happen again! I trust you so it’s easy to listen to you! ❤️

    I’ve realized that I totally have to restrict my sugar and carb intake as I’m one that just can’t have a slice of pizza or a cookie or two. It’s like an addiction thus I’m now doing Intermittent fasting and really choosing foods that are healthy for my body vs foods that have empty calories. My sugar now comes from a piece of fruit. And I’m feeling soo much better. Thank you for your videos and information! 🙏❤️

    Intermittent Fasting has been great for me. I started at 14:10 and am now at 16:8. Has really helped me control appetite, cut out sugars, increase water intake and am averaging 2lb a week weight loss. Thank you for discussing fruit, so many diets are against it because of the sugar but I will have a peach over a cookie any day. Thanks for the info and support. Love this and your app.

    @Whatsupdiva Před 3 lety +2

    Okay Jillian you Totaline hit the nail on the head. For me sugar or eating sugar is more of a ritual thing to me then a mental thing. After a stressful week working at a crappy job dealing with crappy people every Friday or Saturday night I will get a pint of Ben & Jerry's and I will sit in my bed and watch Netflix and eat the entire thing. That said during the week I don't eat unhealthy food. I drink lots of water I don't drink sodas or juices or alcohol, I do not eat a lot of carbs, and I don't overeat as well. So to me having that one pint once a week after eating really good all week doesn't really seem that bad to me anyway. It's pretty much the only sugar I get all week long besides the creamer in my coffee

    Thanks for your share. I appreciate your ideas and advice. I have not had a cookie in 5 yrs, because they were definitely my Achilles heel, although I have other sugar addictions.

    Love your to the point no nonsense videos. I have a question about spondylosis and chronic pain and exercise. I'm 52 now and find that my biggest fear is injuring myself further during exercise which results in procrastination for any type of exercise. Any suggestions on how to get out of my own mind and just get started..?

    Hey Jillian, love all the advice, makes sense to me. I would like to hear what you think of fitness suplements: the pre/post workout stuff, the hydration packets, the slim and lean products; there seems to be a lot of chemical s out there that you can put in your body. Do they work, should we be using them, should we be avoiding them? What are your thoughts on this?
