A diet like Sugar Busters works on the assumption that sugar makes you gain weight AND fat. This method of losing weight was developed by a variety of doctors, so you know it's safe and proven to help you drop pounds and inches. This is how you do the Sugar Buster diet.

Know how it functions. This is based on the workings of the glycemic index. This gauges not only the amount of sugar in food but also the amounts of natural and added sugar. So, the less sugar it contains the more nutritious it is for you, which burns calories faster. This diet isn't only about cutting carbs and eliminating sweets. It is a more focused method to avoiding food high in sugars that we know can lead to weight gain.

Do not be concerned about doing food measurements. Because you don't have to weigh and measure portions, this diet is easy. You can eat whenever you want, without worry of measuring out the correct portion size. You can pretty much eat whatever you want to (within reason). So where is the catch you may ask? All you have to do is limit what you eat to the foods specifically listed in the Sugar Buster's plan.

Be aware of the foods you should not eat. To do Sugar Buster's you will be cutting out a few foods you've become used to having over the years. From now on you will be cutting out:

- sugar, honey and syrups
- desserts and pre-packed snacks
- beer, sodas, full-fat milk and juices

- pastas, white bread and non whole-grain cereal
- potatoes, sweetcorn, carrots and bananas

That may seem a lot to cut out at first, but you'll soon find that there are many healthy foods you are able to eat when you do the Sugar Buster's diet.

You should be aware of which foods you should and should not eat. When you do Sugar Busters, you have to avoid all sugars and starches. But you don't have to sacrifice flavor! You can eat lean cuts of all meats (however be sure to avoid pork). Buy green veggies and stick to whole-grain breads. And make sure that your yogurt is sugar-free. Make the switch to olive oil instead of using butter, and make sure that your salad dressings are fat-free as well as sugar-free. Don't worry about craving sweet things, you can still have a moderate amount of artificial sweeteners to sweeten your favorite treats. And keep some sugar free sodas at home for this purpose too.

Sugar Busters is about changing the way you eat rather than simply dieting. There's no need to use fixed recipes each time. If you want to lose weight, then it is imperative that you follow the recommended diet and avoid fattening and sugar-filled food items. When you begin the Sugar Buster's diet, you should see results right away. If you follow the Sugar Buster's diet properly, you should not feel deprived. You'll probably discover that you actually start feeling really great!
