 Episode 1842 – On this Saturday show, Dan Lucas joins Vinnie to talk Dan’s weight loss journey, beating sugar addiction with intentional NSNG®, cravings after dinner, chess, and more.
BEATING SUGAR ADDICTION
- In 2017, Dan and Vinnie did a consult.
- At that point, Dan had lost around 30 lbs down from 224–he is 6’2″.
- This past Christmas, he gained to 232 lbs.
- The worst part was, he felt terribly.
- His cough came back and he generally felt much sicker.
- The worst part was, he felt terribly.
- Dan got back on the wagon, and he has been more intentional with his fat-eating and carb avoidance.
- Since the New Year, Dan has dropped 32 lbs and is sitting at 200!
- For Dan, a lot of this was breaking an addiction.
- Some people can’t just have a slice of cake… they have to have the whole thing and Dan is one of those people.
- It’s frustrating for him: he thought he had a lot of control, but when it comes to sugar, that goes out the window.
- For some people, Life Into Living isn’t so easy.
- If you’re an addict, break the cravings, don’t give into LIL.
- If your brain searches for sugar, don’t give into it with “just a cookie” or something of the like.
POST-DINNER CRAVINGS
- A lot of people feel cravings after they eat dinner.
- Your brain is hunting for more food now that your hormones are going.
- For some people, it’s because they’re used to dessert.
- Vinnie’s suggestion: have nothing, or having a little charcuterie like Europeans do!
- Throw some cheese, some cornichons, some prosciutto on there, if you can handle those things.
