How much sugar would you guys say is too much per day?
I got into an argument with my gf last night...she's doing this super clean diet with a bunch of colleagues and is excessively spewing all this dietary knowledge on me all of a sudden.
I am usually pretty good about calorie input vs. output and i've always been able to drop weight / put on mass quickly when determined to. The problem is i was born with a sweet tooth and only just recently started thinking about my sugar intake. When i am cutting hard (~1,000-1,250 cal deficit per day including exercise) I award myself a cheat day that are pretty excessive including lots of sweets.
Basically, I am just curious about everyone's take on sugar...have you eliminated it completely during a diet before? When cutting, are you likely to see results quicker if you also eliminate sugar vs. just running a deficit?
You can cut on 1000 Cal's a day? How long can you manage that for? I can barely string together 4 days of 1700 lol. That's impressive
Sugar is the devil in my opinion...It does nothing good for you at all (tooth decay, excessive calories, addiction, the "crash" after a high)... It's easier for me to say cuz I've never had a sweet tooth, but yeah sugar is dumb. But at the same time, nobody likes that person who just discovered their magic diet and won't shut the fuck up about it so feel free to vent here
