My boyfriend is addicted to sugar, any advice to help get him off?

There's nothing more he likes to eat than candy and sugar drinks, the more sugar the better! He hates artificial sweeteners too! Any type!





It's affecting my diet because I have chronic fatigue syndrome and am not supposed to be eating sugar which I love as well.My boyfriend is addicted to sugar, any advice to help get him off?
you need to go to the food sectionMy boyfriend is addicted to sugar, any advice to help get him off?
lol i know how he may feel


but when he comes to your house replace sugar with salt and that should make him back off
Excuse the sympathetic chuckling over here. I have to watch the sugar too, and I love chocolate and ice cream!





I don't blame your boyfriend for not liking artificial sweeteners. A lot of them have an off taste, and some were originally developed as pesticides- something the companies that use the stuff won't tell you.





You could keep unsweetened drinks around, and keep sugar for him to add to them.





Otherwise, lead by example. Because it's pretty clear that your boyfriend isn't thinking about you when he does this.
What does this have to do with cats?
Just because your boyfriend eats it doesn't mean you have to. i was on a diet for a while where i was avoiding carbs but my husband loves pasta. I would make pasta for him and i would make myself something else. It was a lot of work. Usually sugar is in ready to eat foods so it is not like it is in the dinner that you cook and both share. You won't be able to get him to stop eating sugar unless he wants to like he wants to lose weight or something.
why is this in cats go to food
You should try talking to him, and explain how his eating sugar isn't good for you. If he cares about you he will be sensitive and watch what he eats around you.


If he comes over to your house make sure you don't have sugar just laying around.


As for him quitting all the sugar, the only way is for him to want to.


You can try and force him but the only truly successful way is for him to want to quite. Let him read info about diabetes and other sugar related diseases, this might scar him into cutting down.





Good luck=D
