      Yeh, fruits seem to have tons of sugar. Who knew!
      I have the same problem. I'm thinkin it's goin to be hard to watch that one as easily as you'd want to. Though I do eat sugar free puddings and jellos to help make up for some of it.

      At least it's good sugar?
      Like from fruits and healthy stuff...
      You're not eatig a bunch of candy so...I think you'll be okay, even if you're over on sugar (just because of what it's from)

      HOLY CAAARRRAAPPP!!!!
      I just figured out how to change the settings and track sodium and sugar. Now I am really wigging out!!! Over on sugar and sodium, the two tings I need to watch for weight loss, and STILL under on calories!! I am getting soooo frustrated:sad:

      I agree, I just changed mine and I have been over everyday.:grumble: I was already over today with just breakfast. Curse you chocolate milk! :mad: It is good though to see how far off you can be without even knowing it.

      Does anyone know for sure how big of a deal it is to go over even if it is good sugar from fruit?

      I am no expert but as far as I know sugar from fruit is a lot healthier then corn syrup or granulated sugar. As long as you stay away from white flour and only eat whole wheat and whole grains you should be fine. I go over on protein a lot but since it keeps me feeling full and seems to have n o other side affect and I am still loosing I won't worry about it.
