Sugar Situation?

When I joined, I realized right away that I could never stick to the default amount of sugar. So I just upped it in the personalized goals. I try to stay under 60-70 grams and quite a bit of that is fruit. That said, I really don't worry about it very much. I've been at my goal weight for a year and it hasn't affected me any.

I don't track sugar, I track overall carbs and instead of sugar I track fiber in its place.... Best of Luck

There is a great video on youtube by Dr Robert Lustig from the University of California called "Sugar, the Bitter Truth". Very good information and the video has over 4 million hits. Enjoy.

Here is the problem. Carbs beget carbs. Eating a sugary dessert or high carb food spikes your blood insulin level while the sugar is processed, but then you run out of sugar to process and still have high blood insulin levels. This insulin finds nothing for it to bond with, which causes your body to think that you are low on sugar (because in our ancestral environment there weren't such things as cupcakes), which makes you crave sugar so you go in search of something sweet. Basically it is millions of years of evolution insisting that you must be starving because your insulin levels are higher than the available sugars suggest and thereby messing up your diet plans.
It used to be that fat and sugar were rare and our ancestors had to work hard to get them, which burned more calories. Our bodies learned to crave them so that we would be willing to expend the effort to climb that tree and get the sweet fruit, or hunt down the heavier (larger) fat carrying animals. Things like cupcakes and Snickers bars are super-stimuli. They push all of our ancestral craving buttons, but offer none of the nutrition that fat and sugar used to represent (healthy meat and nutritious fruits). One cupcake can be upwards of 500 calories. Do you have any idea how much meat that is? How many apples or oranges?
I tell you all of this because knowing it has helped me to say no to those things. It doesn't fix the cravings, but it gives me a mental anchor to hold on to when those cravings try to pull me into the local bakery.

My suggestion would be to change your macro goals to be higher in protein (at least 1g per lb of bodyweight (2g per kg) and then make your fat and carbs at least a 50/50 split for the remainder of your calories.

Hard to separately track sugar that's naturally occurring (acceptable sugar - fruits & berries) and those that are added (bad sugar - processed stuff)

The obvious way of course is to avoid eating processed foods, but your point is well taken.
