Sugar Numbers

Is there a way to track refined sugars. My sugar numbers are always in the red after I add the fruits I ate. I am not worried about the sugar in the fruits, but I would like to keep an eye on other sugars in my diet.

    I would think most (if not all) sugars on your food diary that are NOT fruits would be refined. Why not just add up the numbers from non-fruit items to get your refined sugar intake?

    Or maybe I don't understand the question?

    I had this problem too so I just took the sugar macro off all together. I'm not that concerned with it and it would only cause anxiety by seeing it in the red. If you know that you are choosing healthy foods like fruits then I wouldn't worry about it too much. That's my take on it at least. I think that everyone here says that this site shoots their sugar numbers too high.
