wtf does that mean when you get cravings for sweet stuff?

wtf does that mean when you get cravings for sweet stuff? I recently started zone 2 cardio and pushed my maximum every day, but I guess I slightly overdid it. the following days I had intense cravings for sweets and not much else (I eat sweets very rarely otherwise). did I run out of muscle glycogen?

    Your body is telling you it NEEDS fuel. You are starving yourself by doing too much exercise without enough glucose.

      I did eat over maintenance though. I can tell hunger vs craving sweets. It was definitely the latter.

        Eating over maintenance means nothing if your macros are off

    You're probably not doing zone 2 but zone 3
    Test your maximum heart rate, it might be lower than you think

    drink zero sugar/calorie sodas. it kills the sugar withdrawal symptons. thats what i did to get unhooked of sugar. if you are having a proper diet even if cutting you should feel hunger, not sugar cravings

      I have found creatine helps with this.

    The parasites in your gut are demanding sugar

      This. Candida is the most documented I believe, but there's all manner of gut bacteria and other less wonderful things that may cause sudden desire for sugar.

    So you're burning an extra 400ish calories a day that your body isn't used to. Drink zero calorie sodas and it'll autoregulate eventually assuming you're in a surplus.
