For those on, do you avoid sugar like the plague? Almost after my first week of blasting, the sugar urges hit me hard. Maybe because im training harder or something but my body craves it. Choc chips,syrup, pancakes, cookies, etc.
Is having a dessert or sugary meal daily really bad for you, or is that considered low amounts? ever since i switched to a more macro based calorie level approach (i look the same, so its proven to work on me), i just watch cals and dont worry about where it comes from within reason. But i dont know how bad having a few cookies every day is in terms of inflammation, cancer, heart disease, etc.

it's probably your body craving more nutrients to grow as the AAS kick in, when you get cravings just have a protein shake and a handful of nuts or something rather than eating crap.

When you consider that all carbs, whether from jelly beans to steel cut oats, convert into sugar before it can be utilized; I still don't understand why sugar is inherently bad.

There are short-chain/simple carbs (sugars) with give a "short energy spike" (can lead to bodyfat if not immediately utilisied).
And long-chain/complex carbs (wholemeal/oatmeal/...) which "burn slow".
Although a mix is good, the latter is preferable.
