Hi Choti, I have had amazing success in finally beating a life-long sugar craving with a simple change in attitude. Instead of "giving up" sugar, I started refusing to put that garbage in my body. The former implies deprivation whereas the latter implies superior knowledge. I now treat sugar the same way I treat aspartame, MSG and hydrogenated vegetable oils. I do not know if this will help or not but it sure made it easier for me.
