Thanks for the replies, everyone! I've tried many, many things in the past to overcome this problem (chromium supplements, l-glutamine, avoidance, more protein, etc.). So far, it seems that increasing protein and just staying away from even the slightest little bit of sugar is the best thing for me. I can pretty much keep my sugar cravings under control...as long as I don't eat sugar, lol! I recently began seeing a nutritionist, who told me that I'd probably always be a sugar-craver, and that it may be best for me to just try and stay away from it indefinitely. I eat a lot of fruit, which helps. I also exercise regularly and whatnot. My diet is actually very good...until I eat sugar and go on a sugar binge! So anyway, I guess I'll just keep trying to avoid it for now and hope that I can one day have it in moderation. :)
