This week I decided to follow the MFP guidelines for sugar and carbs- well I tried to stick close to them anyways...
Results...
Last sunday: 174
This sunday 170.8
Very happy with this and am going to continue this week. I don't feel deprived at all- I just wasn't paying attention to these goals before (I was only watching calories)
I've tried to make my diary public for anyone that wants to see what kinds of menu I was eating

That's great! I'm usually good with the carbs but the sugar is always out of control. I don't know how to keep it in check and still get some fruit in.0

I don't worry too much about natural sugars from fruit or milk, but I do try to avoid the processed stuff. It's those damn carbs that screw me over, lol!0

I definitely gave up some fruit... I was eating 3-4 pieces a day and last week cut back to one, I try to eat veggies instead... I know some people say not to worry about natural sugars but in some ways I think sugar is still sugar- I will keep this up next week and see if my loss is still substantial0 -
Hmmm I love experiements! I have never gone exactly as stated. I followed the calorie intake, and changed the carb vs protein percentage because I need more protein, but never worried about the sugars as long as it was from natural source like banana.
I think I am going to try this myself!! I will let you know how it turns out. One week, follow the nutrients including the sugar (ARGH!!)
