SUGAR vs CARBS?

Obviously it is best to stay within my daily targets for both carbs and sugar, but which is the MOST important? I am usually under my target for carbs but over my target for sugar. I learning so much thru tracking my eating and reading the boards! Thanks!

Carbs, with the exception of fibre, metabolise to sugar (glucose). So, there's really not much difference between the two.

Why is it best to stay under some arbitrary mfp set number for carbs and sugar?

Try to eat mostly whole, nutrient dense foods

Get in adequate protein and fats

Let rest of cals fall where they may

Maintain consistent caloric deficit

The sugar limit is a bit flawed, follow carbs only.
