As I watched he put a half cup of sugar in his millk?

hi dear Hatley thats really much sugar he puts into his drinks. When I was not diabetic yet, sometimes I filled my mug with coffee first then very cautiously spooned one teaspoon of sugar in and then started drinking the coffee. It was bitter first and the more I had the sweeter it got. Then I scraped the remaining sugar out of the cup when it was empty and that was sort of dessert...... LOL I still do it with powdered sweetener. But not with every cup of coffee I drink.

dear Hatley, Maybe his taste buds become bad , that he cannot taste sweet with little sugar? (oh no) That is not good for our health (too much sugar) I don't use sugar with my coffee and I am a certified coffee addict (can drink up to 10 cups of coffee a day) Take care of your health ma'am and wish you the best of this weekend

Yuck, even with my sweet tooth, that sounds really gross and too sweet.. But, it's his body, if he wants to consume that much sugar, I just hope he doesn't suffer too much if his body decides to fight back..

Wow..that is alot of sugar. I couldn't imagine having that much at once! I bet it was like a thick syrup after he got it all mixed. I agree it can't be good for him.

Hello, Hatley! I think I can understand your concern about the guy...but there is nothing we can do about it if he, himself, wants to really drink half a cup of sugar in his milk. But I think it would be better to advice him off of it. It really isn't good if it's that much. Is the sugar he's using white sugar or brown sugar? I think the quality of such sugar can make a difference. If he's using brown sugar at least he's not killing his own life as much as he will if he uses white sugar in his drink. I still better check back into what I've researched before just to make sure...

Mom Half cup of sugar in each cup each glass!!! Oh my god, that too he has diabetic , guess he is not normal, i am diabetic too, normally i take tea/coffee/milk with 'sugar-free' pills; but i also like NOT ALWAYS adding one tea spoonful of sugar to a cup lol Thanks for sharing

Have you mentioned this to the staff, and to the health professionals, there? That can't possibly be good for his health. If he's not diabetic already, it's just a matter of time. Not only is that much sugar not good for him, but his habit will be costly to the place where you live. Not THAT costly, but still it'll cost more than it should.

I also no someone that is a diabetic and uses a lot of sugar in his coffee too. I dont understand how they can put so much sugar in there coffee. I drink coffee every day 3 times a day and i just put in coffee creamer. its a wonder this man dont get sick since he is a diabetic

I think that a can of Coke has seventeen spoons of sugar in it. I imagine half a cup of sugar would be roughly the same amount so he's not doing much worse than people who have one or two cans of Coke per day. However, it is still waaayy too much sugar and this will surely mean diabetes in the not too distant future. Also just out of curiosity, what are his teeth like? One would think that by consuming that amount of sugar his teeth wouldn't be in the best condition.

All I can say is that seems to be an awful lot of sugar, then when I think of some of the things I eat throughout an entire day, I probably consume just as much if not more through other foods and sugary drinks. Apparently he likes it this way and it may not affect him adversely, especially if he is taking in protein at the same time.

I would find that grosse, but if he wants to kill himself, I don´t think there´s much you can do, friend. I confess that since I don´t use any sugar in my coffe or tea, I look away when people put over 2 teaspoons in their cups.

Why does the man eat so much sugar? Grant that the sugar is free,he ought to take his health into account.Scientific research has proved that your worries about his health isn't uncalled-for.The high blood sugar may have an effect on the prognosis of COPD.

i would suggest his teeth will fall out but i am guessing they already have. this is pretty gross and i suspect they could eat anything and all they would taste is sugar. i hope his digestive system is strong enough to remove the sugar or it may ferment and turn they're stomach into a huge vat of 70% proof gastric liquer! His wind would get you drunk!

Sounds like he is either trying to make himself more sick, maybe he has other underlying health conditions or nutrition deficiencies. This amount of sugar is not only unhealthy but can be dangerous. It's his problem, but I understand that you worry about him.

Dear Hatley...you do give me a laugh. How is making a discussion about this poor fellow keeping your thoughts to yourself???

hi hatley...!!! and i fully agree that these people should think before they put that spoon of sugar in tea, coffee milk or whatever...why are they so eager to face their end i too winder like you! ...is eating that too specially those things which are harmful so necessary or are they so much addicted that they won't go a single day without it..

I would say that excess of everything, be it salt, sugar, chips, or even good things like fruits, vegetables is bad. Even if we drink milk in excess, we could have stomach aches, or acidity etc. So, have everything within limits, and we shall be healthy.

I have seen people put tons of suger in their coffee. Never in their milk! Why would a person want to put suger in your milk anyway? That sounds disgusting! I myself like coffee drinks but not regular coffee. Just thinking about the suger in the milk is making what to barf! Ewww! your table mate is weird!

I guess that everyone has their own way that they like to drink things and for some people it is that they like to have just a little bit of coffee or milk with their sugar and for others it is that they like very little or now sugar with their drinks. For me, I do put a pretty good amount of sugar in my coffee, but I've never thought about putting sugar in my milk, I will drink my milk plain or with just a little bit of chocolate syrup in it.

Hi Aunt Hatley, OMG!!!! I can’t imagine having that much sugar. It’s a wonder the people in the dining room or kitchen who supply the condiments don’t say something to this guy. How much money is wasted on sugar each and every day.. 365 days 3 times a day? He has got to consume a pound of sugar between his glasses and cups each day. He should way over 300 pounds by the end of a year unless he can handle all of those calories. I wonder if they charge him for all that sugar that he consumes!? I don’t know all the effects of TOO MUCH sugar on the body. I do know that the body uses glucose to feed the mitochondria in the cells and in the brain cells. The mitochondria are the little energy furnaces in our cells that gives us energy to move around and think. Glucose makes our memory better… but what about sugar overload? From what I have learned in nursing school is that what isn’t immediately used is stored in the liver as glycogen and on the body as body fat. That’s all I know. I have no idea about what eating that kind of sugar does to a person… except make them fat.
