I eat loads of sugar daily and it hasn't prevented me dropping fat. It's just a carb*.

I think you missed the "(I am no exception)" part of his post.I am just CRACKING up because I looked at your diary, and you have at least one "sweet" a day, whether it be a chocolate protein bar, angel food cake, maple syrup, etc... Hypocritical much?!?!

*By sweets I mean anything sweet. No forgiving sweeteners... They're not better for you than sugar... none of them are so don't be fooled. Most are actually worst for you. One such example is Splenda it's sugar treated with arsenic.
WRONG!!! Splenda is a sugar molecule combined with an extra chloride atom!! You know... like in sodium cholride, magnesium chloride, potassium chloride! Do some research before you make proclamations (assumptions)!
Edited to remove my assumption before I make an *kitten* out of myself too!
It's tri-chlorinated.
Because it's already a chloride... yes, I know.0 -
Alrighty then.
So you're saying I can't lose 174 lbs if I eat sweet things? I'll take that under advisement.
Oh, wait. I already did lose 174 lbs eating sweet things. Never mind.0 -
Keep your eyes out of other people's diaries if you can't handle people eating differently than you.0

Not to worry with enough carbs / sugar Type 2 diabetes is what you have to look forward to. As well as insulin shots, cuts that won’t heal, going blind and if you are lucky you will get a electric wheel chair when they amputate your legs.I eat loads of sugar daily and it hasn't prevented me dropping fat. It's just a carb*.

I'm pretty sure the ciggarettes are going to give me cancer and kill me loooooooong before the M&M's give me diabetes... and kills me.0 -
My opinion: sugar is toxic to your body. There are no health benefits to consuming it. If someone chooses to eat a crapload of sugar in their 20s and 30s, I'm not going to feel sorry for them when various health issues pop up at the age of 50.
That being said, I do have the occasional bit of chocolate.0 -

Sugar may (or may not) be the devil, but seriously, to each his/her own.0

I see way too many people complain about not losing weight in the forums
Sugar is killing us all
It sneak into everyone's diet (I am no exception)
However, I've noticed many user diary's have at least two or more portions of sweets* everyday
Sweets are a weekly cheat not a daily one.
Get over your chocolate addictions, give up the processed junk , COMMIT TO YOURSELF "CHEATS ARE ONCE A WEEK" and you will see weight come flying off.
Don't drink anything but water.
Cheats are for mental balance so you don't go crazy, If you need some everyday you're as bad as an alcoholic, the difference is you just won't necessarily be douche with everyone... you'll be huge or on your way to being huge instead. (For the Ecto's Skinny fat is not better)
*By sweets I mean anything sweet. No forgiving sweeteners... They're not better for you than sugar... none of them are so don't be fooled. Most are actually worst for you. One such example is Splenda it's sugar treated with arsenic. Look any sweetener up and you will find problems with them all. Even Stevia has is drawbacks, like lack of proper studies on it. The food industry is testing these products on us not releasing studied products for us.
This post may seem negative but it really isn't I really want everyone to do well, I just get frustrated the food industry has us all wondering what good and what's bad. When really we all have a pretty good idea what's good for us.
Hope you liked the rant...
You can have a treat everyday as long as:
1) you fit that calories within your daily needs
2) dont go over your sugar
BTW--dark chocolate is a very good antioxidant and helps reduce stress0 -
I see way too many people complain about not enjoying their diet on the forums.
Orthorexia is killing us all
It sneak into everyone's diet (I am no exception)
However, I've noticed many user practice arbitrary food elimination with no understanding of dosage or context.
Get over your orthorexia, give up the arbitrary food rules , COMMIT TO YOURSELF "STOP ELIMINATING FOODS YOU ENJOY" and you will see the enjoyment of your diet increase.
Drink anything that fits your macros.
Enjoyable foods are important for mental balance so you don't go crazy, if you need some tasty food everyday you're pretty normal, and if you eat it you just won't necessarily be douche with everyone... you'll be successful or on your way to being successful instead.
This post may seem negative but it really isn't I really want everyone to do well, I just get frustrated the food industry has us all wondering what good and what's bad. When really most of us have no clue and like to make posts about pinning obesity on one singular food item while completely lacking an understanding of global concepts.

You my friend nailed that.0 -
you're not the boss of me
Taso, you are totally cracking me up!! I am belly laughin here!! A friend of mine makes some homemade wine. When his wife has some, this is what she tells him! So, he named his wine, "Your Not The Boss Of Me"!0 -
So most of my sugar comes from fruit (and maybe from my coffee creamer, which I am not ready to give up right now)...it's fairly easy to go over the macro with an apple, blueberries, banana, etc- all stuff that I feel is incredibly healthy and beneficial to my diet.0

IIFYM!!!!!
Did you do this when you looked at the diary?

Who pissed in your corn...wait, they have sugar in them, so obviously you didn't have any this morning.0 -
I really liked what sidesteal had to say about my post.
I recommend reading it its much better than my post and I wish I had written it. At least I inspired it out from him.
As for the fruit question:
Fruits are okay, but too much is still too much. Fructose is harder to process and is more likely to go to your fat cells. Choose veggies over fruit when you can. Your body knows what to do with Glucose better.0
