Beat Your Sugar Addiction 1-minute tip: Swap your sugary snack. Does your sweet tooth ache around mid-afternoon or after dinner? Well, you may be battling an addiction: According to a Princeton University study, rats who were allowed to binge on sugar and then had it taken away showed signs of withdrawal. That may very well be why its so hard to stick to your diet after treating yourself to a sugary treat, says Enos. Her simple solution: Avoid the sweets in the first place and swap them for bananas with peanut butter or yogurt with berries. Bananas are sweet, so they can satisfy your craving, but dont have any added sugar, she says. Its a quick, fiber-rich snack that will keep you feeling full. If you go the yogurt route, sprinkle natures candy — berries — on top, or make your own frozen yogurt bars by freezing the yogurt in a Popsicle tray, with fresh berries for a little more natural sweetness, says Enos. goo.gl/cNbR2Z #core
