As a sugar addict, I can tell you that is very dangerous to me. May work for some, but even a hint of sweetener and I can put myself on a sugar binge that will last a day or more. Maybe someday I will regain better control, but for now, it is safer to avoid sweeteners altogether, regardless of how natural they may be.

Also because I am obese, any setback to weight loss is also dangerous. A little honey taking me from 24 BMI to 25 BMI is different from reverting fron 32 BMI to 33 BMI on the way to 26. I put in the work for each of those BMI units, and to backslide is pyschologically impactful, never mind the physical health impact.

If you are able to go without any sweets then thats fine, but if you do end up eating anything sweet make sure it doesnt contain high fructose corn syrup, I would avoid artificial sweeteners too personally.
