The first thing to do, according to Dr. Merritt, is to combat insulin surges by making small dietary changes. The most important food to reduce your intake of is carbohydrates, and DR, Merritt has a simple way to understand how to lower this without counting grams and stressing about your diet.

If you experience cravings, you are eating too much, slowly start to reduce them until the craving dissipates.
