I’ve evaluated my new normal routine and I’ve noticed that I am a cutter. I know that long-lasting change works better for me when I take it one step at a time. Instead of going cold turkey, I’m intentionally cutting my sugar down to 30–50g a day. This lets me stay consistent, avoid the extreme cravings and ‘rebound’ moments, and build a habit I can stick with for the long run. For me, slower and steadier progress means I can actually enjoy the process while still moving toward my health goals.”
