Cutting and diet question

[Jaakoppi]

Cardio is very debatable. Some believe its essential, some believe cutting is all diet and that cardio wastes muscle. Personally i never do cardio, simply because i dont need it to lose weight and i dont like it. But everyone is different, so you will have to find out for yourself.

Losing weight has been always a delicate matter for me, but the truth is that I'm not in so fit shape and finally want to see results in that area, so doing cardio I'm trying to burn fat but also get in better aerobic shape. I've admired mass but realised that I must also cut, and truth is that I'm not so muscular as I want to be. I've mostly kept calories at the maintenance level or slightly bulked up, for several years, without doing cardio almost at all.

Simply I'm afraid to bulk and grow more muscle because I'm afraid of ending to look like a feeding pig.

Drop your kcals down 250-500 from maintenance for a month or 2. If that doesnt work for you, start doing cardio a couple of times a week. Just experiment what methods work for you.

Yeah I will try to do that or actually keep doing some cardio but increase it a bit if nothing happens. I'm going to take this with time so no need to hurry up.

I thought that I could keep one day/week eating some sugar like plain coffeebread, cake or candy. Do you think it's really a bad idea? If they are included to total amount of daily calories which is about 2400 kcals now.
