Default I can relate

Yes, I understand your addiction to sugar. My problem is addiction to bread.

It is virtually impossible for me to eat bread without triggering the addiction craving cycle.

The only way to do it really is cold turkey. You are lucky to know how sugar and sweeteners affect you. The one thing about switching to a locarb lifestyle for me is that I have learned so much about my body's signals... I have learned how to tell the difference between being hungry and being craving... hunger is much more subtle and much less urgent for me, I've found, for example. Knowing that what I am feeling isa craving seemed to empower me to resist it with more determination.

Good luck!
