    Sugar can definitely hinder your weight loss. Simple carbs spike your hormone levels resulting in a cascade of events causing you to store fat. Get your sugars from complex carbs as much as possible to avoid this pitfall. You can Google this and get much better explanations than I can provide here.

    This is partially true. Sugar can cause spikes in your hormones and cause hungry but the only time you store anything as fat is when calories in > calories out.

    ...Because, contrary to many of the opinions here CALORIES don't matter ... NUTRITIONAL CONTENT does!

    Your body can thrive on very low calories if those calories contain every single bit of nutrition your body needs ... and best of all ... the sugar cravings simply disappear when the nutrition is there.

    Focus on feeding your body's cells and removing toxins from your environment and your body NOT counting calories, and your body will simply stop craving the bad stuff...
