sugar issue

I always go over my sugar with MFP; I'm talking I go over by almost DOUBLE! I love fruit and at least eat about four servings a day.

Last week I got blood work done. They had me fast for the test, so I went at 7am so I wouldn't be too hungry. They took about 5 tubes and I almost passed out after they were done! They informed me this happens a lot due to the fasting. They recommended I eat something before driving home and it worked out perfectly that I had a banana in my purse.

I got the results back a few day again and everything was normal except for my glucose. It was super low!! My doctor actually recommended me eating more sugar, like healthy fruits. HA! :laugh:

Has anyone else had this problem?
Any suggestions?

    I go over on my sugar as well. I always do. I don't really know the answer to the problem. I think a lot of foods have sugar in them. Even if they are the "healthy foods" like fruits and veggies. So I have learned not to stress to much over that. As long as your doctor said there wasn't a problem, I wouldn't think to much about it.
