This started years ago but it is one of my most memorable wins.

I have a sweet tooth and always had a hard time limiting desserts. I used to have 500g of sugar a day sometimes.

I am in complete abstinence now. I eat nothing sweet except seasonal fruits in limited quantities. It changed my relationship with food. I effortlessly control when I eat and how much. I don't fantasize about food anymore.

I went out recently to my favorite dessert place with a friend. For the first time ever I had one serving, enjoyed it thoroughly and stopped.

It's all about reshaping your gut microbiome and the brain. Eventually you'll stop craving it.

a lot of differences in taste also just come with age, at least for me.

i used to looove really sweet food, like the type of stuff they sell at the supermarket in the "sweets" section. often, these were made mostly of sugar, such as these ones:

now, i can't eat them anymore. i get literally nauseous if i eat even a single piece of them. it's because i cannot bear the intense amount of sugar anymore. it's just because i've gotten older. i prefer potato salad and such nowadays.
