Hey I am new on here and having trouble staying within some of my limits. I tend to go over on the amount of sugar,sodium, and vitamens I need. I go over on sugar due to eating a lot of fuit and do not know if this along with the other excess is bad. I could use some help and recommendations. It would be greatly appreciated.:smile:

    Before you change your favorite foods, first meet your calorie goal. If you can do that, then start making small changes or substitutions of the things you usually eat.

    If you're young and healthy, excess sodium, vitamins, or even sugar won't hurt you. The only harmful excess I know of is too much iron.
    If fruit is the only type of sweets you eat, you're doing great. The fiber is fruit slows down the absorption of the sugars, so it's the best sweet you can eat.
