I never was a sugar eater. Not very drawn to sweets. I never liked candy or desserts. I rarely drank colas, and ate bad carbs very sparingly. I have always tried to be a smart eater most of my life. On average, I probably consumed less than 1/4 cup of sugar a week as I usually used alternate sweeteners such as honey, maple or stevia....

Now, I have to say that since being in and out of chemo for the last 3 years, I have suffered from cravings for sweets like never before in my life. And I have less will power than ever before... when it comes to cookies and chocolates. At least I make a conscious effort to eat only dark chocolate.

Anyone else had cancer treatment CAUSE them to have sugar cravings??
