First of all, let’s clear one thing up: It’s actually not sugar, by itself, that is the main problem here.
“Real” sugar; the kind that exists in natural foods, like fruits, vegetables, and milk, to name a few -

1. READ NUTRITIONAL LABELS
This is possibly the most important thing you can do to take charge of what foods you’re putting into your body. For any drink, cereal, package, energy bar, or whatever prepared food you purchase at the grocery store, read the label.

-actually satisfies a legitimate nutritional and functional purpose in our bodies. Sugar is something that exists in natural, whole foods and it provides our bodies with energy. Energy is good, in this sense.

What’s NOT good is when you have a sweet tooth and have over time, developed a certain need for sweeter and sweeter things. Couple that with becoming addicted to sweet stuff and you got yourself a gold mine, if you're a manufacturer selling sweet foods.

Another very easy way to spot sugar in the nutrition labels is by recognizing the “-ose” suffix. So, when you see words that end in -ose, like sucrose, maltose, dextrose, fructose, glucose, galactose, high fructose corn syrup, etc., there's a good chance it is sugar.

Coconut Palm Sugar - this sugar is actually sap from the coconut palm which is heated and evaporated which reduces it to granules. Coconut sugar is nutritious and has a low score on the glycemic index.

2: CHOOSE HEALTHIER/ ‘MORE REAL’ SOURCES OF SUGAR
Like I mentioned before, sugar exists in whole foods, like beans, vegetables, and fruits. Sugar provides us with energy and is not a bad thing if consumed in moderation from whole foods and within a well-balanced diet.

Refined sugar is associated with weight gain, diabetes, arthritis, cancer, heart disease, osteoporosis, Alzheimer's, and depression, among others. These highly refined forms of sugar are no longer taken from a fruit or a bean or a vegetable.

This has led to processing sugar (i.e. high fructose corn syrup, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and so on) into what we now have in most of the packaged foods out there.

Refined sugars, on the other hand, don’t work in our bodies in the same way. They are pure energy from the very start. No need to digest and process the fibrous tissue of an apple to get your naturally occurring sugar.

Most of us, after reading the label and seeing high fructose corn syrup as one of the top 5 ingredients in the list would realize that food probably isn’t a good choice. But, what if you saw brown sugar, fruit juice, malt syrup, or organic cane juice?

When we consume those real foods, the naturally occurring sugar enters our bloodstream slowly as we digest the food and all the other nutrients provided by those foods.

Instead, you get a shot of the straight sugar without any chance of slowing it down. This is NOT what we want. Over time, this will put such a toll on our bodies and our organs will start to fail (i.e. Diabetes, heart disease, etc.).

Raw Honey - is simply honey that has not been filtered or pasteurized so it includes beeswax, royal jelly, bee pollen and propolis (a substance collected by honeybees from tree buds, used to fill crevices and seal honeycombs).

You are still used to highly sweetened food and this is what you need to move away from. Artificial sweeteners can also increase your cravings for sugar and carbs and they can deplete your body’s store of chromium, which is a crucial nutrient in blood-sugar metabolism.

No, they don’t contain calories, but they also don’t contain any nutritional value so your body wants more and more of them, thinking the sweetness will provide you, at least, with energy, which it never does so you’re left craving more and more sweets.

Pure Maple Syrup - contains beneficial nutrients, lower Glycemic Index score (so not as harmful to liver), helps with digestion, and contains antioxidants.

3: NO ARTIFICIAL SWEETENERS
Many people turn to artificial sweeteners when trying to avoid excess sugar in their diets. While many consider these type of zero calorie sweeteners “safe” or “guilt-free,” they’re not helping you one bit.

However, the extracts and powders you can purchase in the grocery store have very little to do with the original plant. Stevia, as an extract, is highly processed and only contributes to your continued dependency on needing more and more sweets.

It’s used by many cultures as a remedy for ailments, including ulcers, digestion problems, and as an antibiotic. Raw honey contains antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and enzymes. Make sure to look for raw in the name, as processed honey has no such health benefits.

While these three better-for-you sugars do contain many more health benefits than processed sugar, I want to stress they are all still…sugar. Therefore, make sure you consume them in moderation.

The same goes for Stevia. Forget the notion that “natural” sweeteners that contain zero calories are actually good for you. Yes, the stevia plant contains green leaves that are naturally very sweet and calorie-free.

Honey simply labelled as un-pasteurized is likely filtered, but hasn't been heated. It would not be considered raw because it has been filtered and had the royal jelly, beeswax, bee pollen, and propolis removed.

4: IDENTIFY THE MAIN CULPRIT
We all have one type of food or drink that is probably the most major of all the culprits of our continued dependency on processed sugar. Maybe you are a sweet coffee drinker. Maybe you love your Dr. Pepper.

5: START TO REMOVE SUGAR FROM YOUR HOME
It all needs to go. Otherwise, it will be there for you when you’re feeling week and just want to give up. If you don’t have it, you won’t eat it. Donate, give away, or throw away all processed sugar from your home.

A note on fruit juices. Yes, they are made from from fruit. NO, they aren’t good for you. Believe it or not, they actually contain the same amount of sugar as a can of soda.

Maybe you sneak a candy bar every day at 2:30pm to get you through the afternoon at work. It’s likely this one culprit that scares you about letting go of processed sugar and quitting for good.

Also (and this goes along with reading your nutrition labels) check your condiments, pasta sauces, fruit juices, barbecue sauces, breads, and so on for lurking sugar. You’ll be surprised with just how much hidden sugars you’ll find.

You’ll gain control over your health and body.
You’ll gain an understanding of all the marketing you’re letting tell you what to eat even though it’s bad for you.
You’ll gain a newfound appreciation for naturally occurring sugars, like apples, ripe bananas, and even carrots.

While the sugar is natural sugar, not added sugar, it still is a show to your system and is too much sugar to be combining at one time. Instead, opt for eating a piece of fruit instead of drinking what is essentially 3-4 pieces of fruit very rapidly.

That means sugary cereals (and even many of the so-called healthy cereals you think you purchased), candy, cookies, granulated sugar, brown sugar, high fructose corn syrup, etc. You won’t be needing those anymore.

7: JUST START.
Most people complain that they’re trying to get healthy is how they just can’t get past their addiction to sugar, Their sweet tooth is just too strong and is always sabotaging them from reaching their health and weight goals.

6: MAKE IT A TRANSITION
Change can be very scary and difficult for us to swallow, especially when we consider the years and years we’ve likely been addicted to refined sugars. Start small, take baby steps, and keep moving towards removing refined sugars from your diet.

Each change you make during this process of quitting processed sugars will help you with the next change. Attacking this main culprit head-on will certainly work to help you remove the need for sweets within the rest of your diet.

Each teaspoon of sugar you remove a day, the better off you’ll be. As much as you may want to throw everything out and quit for good, that is not always the best choice because we have habits and routines and likes that will all be unhappy and thrown out of whack.

They’re worried they’ll never be able to eat ice cream again, enjoy chocolate, sip a sweet latte, or have pancakes with syrup again. They focus on all the things they’ll lose and this is terrifying and keeps them from taking that jump into quitting sugar.
