Welcome! I’m Hunter Williams and today I’m breaking down everything you need to know about the sugar diet, my personal protocol, and why this approach is changing the fitness and weight loss world. After following the sugar diet for several weeks (inspired by Mark Bell), I’m sharing my real-world results, the science behind why carbs (especially sugar!) can actually accelerate fat loss, and how you can adapt the diet to your goals—whether you want to lose fat, build muscle, or maximize metabolic health.

In this video, you’ll learn:
 â€˘ Why the “sugar diet” isn’t about eating junk food but optimizing carb intake for hormone health (FGF-21!)
 â€˘ The best foods to eat and what to avoid for metabolic flexibility
 â€˘ How to set up your training and cardio days for maximum fat loss
 â€˘ How to cycle protein and fat for best results
 â€˘ Why so many people—including former keto and carnivore followers—are losing weight faster than ever

I lay out my exact meal plan, explain the science in simple terms, and show you how to make the sugar diet work for you. Whether you want to drop fat, keep muscle, or just feel amazing, this is your no-BS guide to the sugar diet.
