I like all forms. I like table sugar, honey, and brown sugar. I like sugar that occurs in nature. I also like processed and refined sugar, especially the kinds that are in wine, beer, and whiskey. I also like candy and cookies. Chocolate is also a favorite. And, ice cream; my beloved Ben & Jerrys Peanut Butter Cup ice cream. Yum!
I eat all the sugar. I still hit my goals. Sugar is a carb. A carb us a macro nutrient. I track my macro nutrients, so I eat all the sugar I want, up to the limit within my macro setting for carbs, and also keeping in mind, my overall calorie goal.
But, sugar is yummy, and I love it.
There's a lot of talk right now about everyone cutting sugar to lose weight. Do what you want, BUT YOURE NUTS! Sugary yummies are so good. And, they will not stop you from reaching your goals.
Eat smart, add sugar, and enjoy your life. You only get one chance to do it right. :drinker:
Peace out!

Oh, sorry,...but I'm sure there is a Walmart close by,...only $.99/box. If not, I'm always willing to share. I also have some Wonka Bottle Caps and a bunch of Tootsie Pops. I have plenty for everyone.0 -
Me too!!! I love sugar and fat and protein too! I basically love all foods and can't for the life of me understand why anyone would want to cut even a single one out from their diet.

Likely.
I like sugar on salted butter toast.

Avoiding sugar is not just a weight loss aim, that's only a small part of it.
Eating sugar (sucrose/fructose) increases visceral fat, increases blood triglycerides, makes insulin less efficient increasing the risk of diabetes and heart disease. It also changes our cholesterol transportation system (LDL) from safe pattern A to risky pattern B, again putting you at risk from heart disease. High sugar intake is also linked to pancreatic cancer, kidney disease and high blood pressure.
The only sugar (fructose) you should eat is in whole fruit and vegetables.0 -
It's Sunday - what a way to go.

Excess weight is all about eating more calories than we burn.
All things in moderation................works for me!
beachlover317, I am going to make some bacon right now, that looks better to me than sugar, LOL!0 -

I guess you didn't read what I wrote, so instead, you jumped onto the sugar-is-the-antichrist-train. Had you taken some time to consider what I said, you would have found it unnecessary to write this little ditty about the evil empire of sugar.
I did consider what you said. You count macros and you meet your goals in a way that allows you to eat sugar, because you like it. I haven't got a problem with that, I just wanted to point out that fitness is not just a measure of calories and macros.0 -

Fitness has absolutely nothing to do with calories and macros at all.0
