Inquiring minds want to know if you count the sugar in fruits? If so I'm screwed on an everyday basis since I am satisfying my sweet tooth with fruit instead of chocolate.

    I don't. I went under custom and got rid of sugar for this reason!

    I do but I'm very sensitive to sugar. I wouldn't worry about it if the only issue is numbers on MFP.

    I was also substituting fruit for chocolate. Found out it is not a great idea as fruits are high on the glycemic index. Now I eat more veggies, protein and fiber and that seems to help. I went back to 1 square of chocolate a day so it is a win-win for me.
