About this listen
A proven plan to break free from your unhealthy relationship with sugar - and reclaim your health and your life for good.
The solution to your food and weight problems isn't willpower or the next fad diet - it's breaking up with sugar. Molly Carmel, an eating disorder therapist with a thriving clinic in New York City, discovered the devastating role sugar played in her own 20-year struggle with disordered eating. After reaching a peak weight of 325 pounds and trying every diet imaginable, Molly was finally able to dramatically transform her life - and find her happy weight-by breaking up with sugar. Molly has since helped thousands of people overcome compulsive overeating, repetitive dieting, and sugar addiction to reinvent their lives. Here, she shares her empowering 66-day blueprint for kicking sugar to the curb - once and for all.
Molly explains how sugar is not only bad for your health, it's also a substance with highly addictive potential - one that creates physical, neurological, and hormonal changes that often make moderation impossible. This is the first audiobook to address the emotional, spiritual, chemical, and physical components of this toxic relationship and help guide you through the steps to create a new and lasting relationship with food...and with yourself.
Breaking Up with Sugar includes step-by-step meal plans to take the guesswork out of going sugar-free, as well as seven key self-affirming vows you can rely on to help end the overeating and dieting cycle and release unhealthy weight. With empathy, honesty, and humor as your trusted coach and friend, Molly gives you essential tools to navigate this new way of eating when life gets "life-y" or times get tough. Her sustainable road map will put you on the path to true freedom.
Includes a PDF of worksheets and activities.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

"The secret about sugar is that even small amounts can be harmful to our health because our bodies learn to want more. And that makes moderation impossible. Molly explains the science behind a problem so many struggle with, and helps readers untangle the emotions that can get in their way. If you struggle with weight issues and haven’t found solutions elsewhere, this book has the answers you’ve been looking for." (Mark Hyman, MD)
"It’s exciting to see Molly Carmel present a deeply researched, battle-tested, realistic way of changing our culturally skewed relationship with sugar. The information and ideas in Breaking Up with Sugar can prevent disease, save lives, and make those lives much healthier and more joyful. If you suspect that your relationship with sugar is unhealthy (and if it is, at some level you know it) do something kind for yourself and read this book!" (Martha Beck)
"All my patients know what I think about sugar - that it is poison, and people are addicted to it. I want to get sugar, in all its forms, out of their diets, but that, as they say, is easier said than done. In Breaking Up with Sugar, Molly Carmel tells us exactly how to do it. I would recommend this to every one of my patients and anyone who wants to be healthier." (Frank Lipman, MD, coauthor of The New Health Rules)

A Different Look at Sugar
I like the perspective that sugar is an ADDICTION and must be treated accordingly!

Basic with some insights
For the most part I enjoyed this book. I think for those who are starting to contemplate leaving sugar behind this book could be useful. However, it lacks more thorough in depth research and from a nutritional standpoint has some incorrect assumptions.

If you need a Cheerleader
If you need a cheerleader for dieting this is your book. I myself was interested in sugar specifically. But as the author speaks it truly could be applied to any type of diet or “break up”. Not very specific to sugar in my opinion.
