I have cut out sugar (or fructose) like in the Sweet Poison book. I really didn't think I could do it, as I have a major sweet tooth and also binge eat. If I start, I can't stop. But I have been sugar free for almost 4 weeks and it has been easier than I thought it would be. I don't have really strong urges for chocolate or cheesecake or other sugary fatty treats. I have been pleasantly suprised by how well I've done. (Let's not talk about the fact that I have gained 2kg... we are working on that). But seriously I think not eating sguar is the key to stopping binge eating for me. I am hoping to keep this up long term (i.e. I can see myself not eating sugar except for maybe really special occasions for the rest of my life).
