Part one of twoHave you ever sworn off sugar, only to end up eating more of it once it was “off-limits”? In this first official episode of Trust Yourself with Food, Gillian unpacks why common strategies for controlling sugar - like cutting it out completely, keeping it out of the house, or using rigid food rules....tend to backfire.This conversation is NOT about fear mongering sugar or telling you how much you should be eating- it's about the psychology of scarcity, all-or-nothing thinking, and how hidden weight-loss pressures often drive our desire to quit sugar.You’ll leave this episode with practical reflection prompts to help you decide what a reasonable sugar intake looks like for your life... without rules, guilt, or constant mental chatter.What you’ll learn in this episode:Why past sugar-control attempts haven’t worked long-termHow scarcity and “screw it” thinking fuel cravings and overeatingThe link between sugar restriction and hidden weight-loss goals3 reflection prompts to reset your relationship with sweets🎁 Free Self-Trust Starter Kit: https://bitesize.kit.com/selftrust🧠 1:1 Coaching with Gillian: https://bitesize.es/coaching-2/Send me a DM on Instagram and let me know how you liked this episode: https://www.instagram.com/bitesizenutri
