    Make sure the sugar you're having is "good" sugar aka fruits. Fruit juice - no. Sugary snacks - only on occasion.
    I go over my limit for sugar every day because I eat 3 fruits a day. Nothing else that I eat gives me over 2 g of sugar sooooo it's obviously the fruits. But I'm not too worried anymore because that isn't important in weight loss ... I'm still eating under my calorie limit so all good :)

    If it's sugar out of fruits it's not so bad cause it's fructose.
    Oh, and try eating vegetables, eggs, rice, cottage cheese....they have no sugar or have a very low percentage :)

    CN = Caloric needs, what a body should consume in order to lose weight/cut fat
    TDEE = Total Daily Energy Expended, that total amount of calories a person burns throughout the day from their metabolic rate, exercise and normal daily actives (making food, walking, bathroom, etc).

    You cant cut everything out of your diet, the brain and body needs levels from all sources. sugar in fruit in natural, why worry your eating healthy foods and thats all that matters.
