Do you want to go sugar free this summer? We’re looking for three sugar addicts, who want to give up the sweet stuff and in turn lose weight and feel great.
We're looking for three sugar addicts to take to Cyprus - but this will be no holiday
Here at Good Morning Britain, we want to take three viewers to the sunshine island of Cyprus in mid June to help kick start the plan. You'll be working out and tasting the cuisine of Limassol and Paphos.
There you’ll be joined by our fitness expert Jessie Pavelka and Cypriot nutritionist and cook Tonia Buxton. But this will be no holiday - you have to be willing to work hard and take part in all our experts' activities in order to achieve your goal.

Over the next four weeks we will be following you as you learn about cutting out the sugar and take on our exercise plan. Dr Hilary Jones will also be on hand to offer medical advice on all things related to sugar.
