You should lose, I think the sugar is added in to your daily calorie count, but is also separate in case you are tracking your sugar intake. Are you exercising? Just walking around the block can help greatly. Just don't eat calories that you burn exercising. With my exercise calories the program says I can eat 2000 cal a day, but I stick around 1400 to 1500 and have been losing a pound a week. Your daily calories will be different. Also, if you don't eat enough the program will tell you "Your not eating enough" for me if I go below 1200 cal it will give me that warning.
Also I eat allot of homemade food, so it is difficult for me to accurately track calories. If you buy cheese at the store, you can scan in the calories with your phone. I make my own homemade cheese and many other foods, so there is no upc label to scan. I do the best I can using the database and so far it is working for me.
If you feel you can track your calories accurately you should probably stick with what the program says and see what happens. If it's not working than lower your calorie intake more, and do more exercising. Remember weight loss takes time so be patient, and sometimes you get stuck so you have to experiment and see what works best for you.
