Unlike the boogeyman, sugar addiction does exist. And it's preventing many women from achieving rapid arm toning. Although not easy, you can beat this addiction.
What evidence is there that sugar addiction is real? Well, for one, doctors use sugar as a powerful analgesic (painkiller) when performing routine medical procedures on infants. Also, when given high levels of sugar, rodents show the same types of brain alterations that drug addiction induces. Finally, drugs used to combat drug addictions (i.e., naxolone) can eliminate sugar addictions.
Now you need to be brutally honest, are you suffering from a sugar addiction? Ask yourself the following questions: Do my moods fluctuate with sugar intake? Am I coming up with very detailed reasons as to why I am not addicted as I read this? If so, you are probably addicted.
The main issue with sugar, is that it prevents your body from secreting arm fat burning hormones. And without said hormones, your arms will never get toned. Period. So without further ado, here are 4 things you can start doing today to kick that addiction out the window:
1. Substitutes. Remember that strange aftertaste you used to get after drinking your favorite diet soda? Well, the good news is that sugar substitutes have changed a lot. And although a substitute won't give you an energy high, it will taste just like sugar. My favorite one is stevia, an all natural herb from south America.
2. Yerba mate loose leaf tea. This is the most powerful all-natural appetite suppressant I have ever found. The key is to make sure you experiment with small doses first and then gradually increase. And be patient because unlike coffee, it takes about an hour to take effect. Yerba mate is a powerful tool for cancelling out your sugar cravings. As an added bonus, it will increase your metabolism which will accelerate arm toning.
3. Lifting weights. How is lifting weights related to sugar cravings? Because it increases your hunger a lot. How does increased hunger help fight a sugar addiction? The type of increased hunger you get from intense weight lifting readjusts your palate and makes average-tasting foods much more palatable.
4. Emotional healing. You need to address the emotional side of the addiction if you want long term success. The best method I have found for doing this is cognitive therapy. Feeling Good: The New Mood Therapy by David Burns M.D. is your best bet for self-administering this powerful method. Mind you, this is the number one recommended book by therapists.
We enter this world with a sweet tooth for sugar. And live in this world with the food industry trying to push sugar onto us from every angle. Thus, our environment is a breeding ground for sugar addictions. And if arm toning is your goal, sugar is enemy number 1. So don't wait until tomorrow to implement these tactics. Start using them now!
