A night routine helped me more than willpower. Herbal tea, brushing teeth earlier and keeping sweets out of the living room changed the habit loop. If cookies are beside me, I will eat them.
I replaced dessert most nights with Greek yogurt, berries and a little honey. It still feels sweet but has protein and fiber. Cutting sugar worked better when I added satisfying foods instead of just saying no.
