I know that fruit has 'good' sugar that is way different to sugar in say chocolate, but i do eat a lot of fruit, say 5 - 6 pieces a day. On MFP its saying i'm way way over my sugar allowance, but its literally just from fruit....don't understand, help! should I not eat so much fruit?

    If you don't have problems with sugar (diabetes) then you are fine. MFP simply offers suggestions on where your calories should come from. It can be adjusted. As long as you are eating your calories and staying within your goal you are fine.

    If you are trying to get ripped then that is a different matter, but for simple dieting its ok.

    Good luck!
