Brown Sugar

kwmarissa

How bad would it be for me to use brown sugar in my coffee? I ran out of truvia and have yet to get any and I am in need of coffee. So, my question is, if I use brown sugar but stay in my caloric limit for the day will it contribute to weight gain?

If you are eating at a deficit, then your body will take from fat stores, not add to them, no matter what you eat.

IT depends. In my opinion if you only use a teaspoon of brown sugar a day and stay in your range, and eat a basically balanced and healthy diet I don't see a problem Best of luck to you!!! Let's think what is reasonable and healthy. I don't think we have to be too stringent, just keep in moderation Three teaspoons of sugar may be too much in my humble opinion!
Congratulate yourself on what you are doing!!!

Sugar isn't a devil food. You can live on Twinkies if you stay in your budget, sugar doesn't make you fat, fat doesn't make you fat, eating too much makes you fat.

"Too much" is relative to total daily calories.
