I dropped sugar and severely reduced carbs 4 years ago. It was hard to do, but I made a game of it: I'd resist as long as I could, and then binge. Then next time I had to go that same duration without, plus at least one day. So 5 days, then binge 1 day, then 6 days, then 7 days, then 12, then 13, etc etc. By the time I reached 6 months without binging, I'd lost the craving. 2 years later, I couldn't stand eating it on any quantity over a gram or so. I also increased my fiber intake when eating carbs to better regulate the insulin response. Oh, also I eat a mostly veggie diet, with meat protein maybe once or twice a week. Results: I have zero body odor. It might be a combination of using water only to wash, but my wife has marveled on many occasions how I don't smell like anything at all (except the top of my head apparently, which smells like a baby's). I can (and have) gone 4 days without bathing and she couldn't tell the difference. My weight is down to normal. I wear size 33/34 jeans like I did in high school. I eat 2 meals a day (breakfast and dinner) and am rarely hungry otherwise. When I do get hungry, I usually eat figs and nuts. I only drink water and sometimes tea. My sleep is about the same as always. My energy is much higher, although I still like an afternoon nap for 15 mins. No more carb crashing. No more acne or skin problems. Another thing my wife marvels e over and is jealous of is my skin softness.
