How do you help someone that suffers from compulsive spending?
Many people believe they can fix compulsive spending by switching from plastic to cash. Seeing real money disappear adds a powerful psychological impact.
What about smoking? Do you gradually reduce your daily cigarette intake? No, for most people, you stop smoking COLD TURKEY. Hey, this one I know from personal experience. And for this one help from friends or family is recommended.
And what about drugs? This one is tough—it falls into a category where control is minimal, and people may go to extreme lengths to obtain drugs. So going cold turkey could be in pair with being locked down somewhere having all kind of terrible withdrawal symptoms.
Ok, so what do we do with sugar addiction and weight loss? Do we follow a vague plan and hope for the best? Do we rely solely on willpower and self-belief?
NO, WE DONT!
In seven days, we’ll begin a new way of eating—unlike anything you’ve tried before.
We are going to:
- Stop Refined Carbs: Bread, pasta, rice, tortillas, wafles, cake, crackers, etc.
- Stop Starchy Vegetables: Potatoes, corn, plantains, yams, pumpkin, etc.
- Stop (for the time being) Fruits: Yes, I know this one is very tough. And while you won’t be eating a banana, you can try berries, avocados, watermelons, tomatoes, peaches.
- Stop Alcohol and sugary drinks: No drinking, not even a beer and also stop juices, soda and anything that have sugar. Your new drinks will be water, coffee and tea.
Maybe after reading all these “Forbidden Things” you still believe that you can do it. Maybe you believe you’re up for the challenge and possess extraordinary willpower.
I am here to tell you that no matter how much you believe, you won’t make it alone. So, choose a diet guardian that will help you uphold this very difficult challenge.
You have one week to stop believing that you can do it alone and get a failproof strategy that will help you in time of weakness. Use this week to find out as much as possible about clean/healthy keto and get your support partner as I am telling you again, this won’t be easy and while you might believe in yourself, this is as close and you can be to having a drug addiction (sugar addiction is real) so get help.
