    I really, really want a Snickers bar right now. I'm sick. A Snickers should take pity on me and materialize in my living room so I could eat it.

    I really want one now too... lol!

    It might be healthy if you gnawed it right off the sugar cane plant, but once you include it in a candy bar, all the health is gone.

    So because some people have medical issues, nobody should have sugar?

    Plus, some people are allergic to peanuts, therefore Snickers are, by definition, unhealthy for everyone.

    not at all. Those levels in MFP are minimums and you only need to concern yourself with going over any of them if you have a medical condition requiring you to keep them low.

    The sugar level is not meant to be a minimum. I don't track it myself, but there's no daily requirement for sugar.

    It won't affect your weight loss at all. I turned off the "Sugar" reading in my diary and replaced it with Iron, since I'm anemic. You don't need to watch your sugar levels unless you're diabetic/insulin sensitive.

    Calories in vs out determine weight loss, not sugar.

    Yep. I did the same thing.
