Does anyone else have trouble sticking to the mfp limit for protein, carbs, sugar??
I seem to be fine on the carb level but if I add a couple of pieces of fruit to my day I seem to go over the sugar limit which is so frustrating!!! I also seem to be doing this with protein its frustrating cause I feel like I am eating perfectly otherwise!! Does anyone else feel like this?!

MFP sets the sugar bar arbitrarily low. If you are within your cals don't worry. same with protein or fat.
You can customize your macros if you wish.0 -
depends on the kind of sugar you get. if your eating candy and cookies as a source of sugar then worry about it but if your like me and go way over because of eating to much fruit like apples that are loaded with sugar dont worry about it0

^^ This ^^. I don't worry about it, if it is from a healthy source such as fruit.0 -
