    AHA recommendation is for *added* sugars.

    ^^This. It's an important distinction.
    I don't track sugar that often, but when I do it's anywhere from mid 40s to around 100 for total sugars, and anywhere from upper single digits to low 30s for added sugar (I include sugar from juice and dairy when I'm manually added up added sugar, since the point if I understand it seems to be whether the sugar is coming in whole foods with fiber, but I might be overthinking that).

    You can create another meal category to track natural sugars as opposed to added sugars. That makes the numbers a little easier to decipher.

    thank you so much for this idea, i'm gonna try it :)
