Is having a sweet tooth a bad thing? Part I

We often feel guilty about having a sweet tooth because we feel as though it means that we are not healthy or that we have failed in some way.  

I unpack feelings about having a sweet tooth and whether there is any truth to the stigmas that accompany it.

I touch upon what having a sweet tooth means and when we know when we have had too much sugar.

I also share behavior patterns that are related to food (sugar) addiction listed on the DSM-5 Diagnostic Scale.

This is the first of two episodes.

At the end of this two-part series, I will answer the question whether having a sweet tooth is bad.

Please stay tuned for the 2nd part, where are discuss:

• How does sugar work against our fat loss goals?
• Can we satisfy our sweet tooth with foods other than refined sugar? 

AND

• How do we build our meal plans to accomodate our sweet tooth without impacting our fat loss goals?

Thanks for listening!

I hope you enjoyed this episode and if you did I hope that you subscribe if you haven't already and please leave a review and share the podcast with a friend so that I can reach as many women as I can who may be in the menopause transition and are looking for tips and strategies to support them on their fat loss journey.

I look forward to sharing another episode with you next week and until then, stay healthy, stay blessed and if you are menopausal with a sweet tooth, remember that guilt-free always tastes and feels better.

Talk to you next week.
