Yea I know, I just want to be a tad 'bigger'. I'm 76kg, would like to be 80kg and I don't want to get there by just eating crap, want it to be muscle mass.
I was 63kg a few years ago so it's a massive improvement

Goes to show how everyone is different as when I was 16.8 stone I felt weak and lethargic. Practically zero stamina. Though I'm only 5ft 9.
My body really hates weight now.

I don't know if it matters, but at my current weight, my BMI is 21.2. Bang in the middle of the green bar, so I can't be underweight. I am only 5,5.
Hot apple pie and vanilla ice cream? Or apple pie and custard or lovely chocolate pudding that breaks off in little bits while the chocolate oozes through the hot custard...

At 63kg you probably got lost behind a lamppost.

It's a Family Guy quote that popped into my head and seemed to fit as I was suitably awed by your post.Am 60kg and 5ft'10 so I have to be careful walking over grids and drains!
You can tell fat people who eat too much sugar, they always have a flushed red glow about there faces while they haul 100kg+ of blubber around.

Funnily enough I was the same, until I got older. Then even looking at something nice I gained weight!
But at the tender age of 37 I'd say I'm fitter now than I have ever been, thanks to a good diet and 5 days a week at the gym.
Problem with BMI is it doesn't take into account muscle mass.
You could be a 5ft 5, blobby or a 5ft 5 hulk and still have the same BMI.

Redness in someones face can be caused by many different medical conditions some of which have no known cure.
Yeah I did Carb cycling when I wanted to cut down for a holiday years ago, I enjoyed it and it helped me control my diet well, also combined it with intermittent fasting and also upping Calories on training days.
I don't think eating a bit of chocolate around training is bad at all though, your energy levels will probably benefit from a bit of extra blood sugar, I just tend to see people make a big deal about meal timing and spiking insulin or having a Protein shake within 30 seconds of training when really the bigger picture is what's important as you obviously know.

Yep, I love sweet food, chocolate specifically. More so after a large meal. I find buying a box of heroes or the like is a good option, and I'll have like 3 of them to keep my cravings at bay rather than a whole chocolate bar/cake or whatever. I do have my bad days though where I just want to eat and eat and eat. I just go for it 
. It only happens now and again, and as long as I keep going at it at the gym, then it's all good.

Sugar is fine for you providing you burn it off as soon as possible.
You nut job that's over a quarter of a 1 kilo bag of sugar, do you want diabetes or something because you going the right way about it.
