ex: I'm drinking a lot of skim milk. 12 grams a sugar a cup. plus some cereal. plus a nutrigrain bar, apple, pear, blueberries. almost 100 grams of sugar
all that ok? to lose weight? as long as under my set goal?
also, how do i stop the advertisements on my laptop? they really slow my wi-fi connection to a crawl (worse than a crawl).

Well super obese people need mono/poly when suddenly going from very high consumption to low calories under like 1400. I still have that mindset form when I started my diet. It still doesn't hurt to eat those foods some..0 -

High sugar diets lead to fat in the blood which leads to heart disease. It causes fatty liver, metabolic syndrome and depression. Low cal or not, it's not good for you.0

Also Sugar can increase cravings, decrease satiety, affect your mood, and do other things that CAN impact your eating habits and thus your weight.

Agree with stacerpacer. From my own personal experience, if I eat too much sugar every day, it is very hard or almost impossible to lose weight because taking a bite of something like chocolate or cake makes me hungry for more, I cant stop at one. It's like an insatiable appetite and I just feel tired all day. Nothing wrong w the occasional treat though

Eating sugar is fine. I eat sugar in a deficit and losing fine. However, I find sugar doesn't keep me full or satisfied after I consume it. I only try to stay away from it sometimes because fat keeps me fuller longer.0

I personally found that by lowering sugar in my diet including artificial sweeteners lead to greater weight loss. I use to think that sugar didn't matter as long as I stayed under my calorie goal but i never lost much weight. As soon as i reduced sugar and sweetner consumption by over 50% i ended up loosing over 10 pounds in a month. And cutting back on sweetners was the only change i made.0

Not a huge deal but when I have too many empty calories from sugar I'm starving all day. I eat up to 80g a day though but my goal is 1800 so probably higher than yours.
Fruit is perfectly fine though, but it's the same for me, too much fruit and I'm hungry... I need more fat and protein.0 -
Mmmmm, fatty liver.0

Saw a lovely looking recipe the other day for fried chicken livers and mushrooms.
As long as you are in a deficit you will lose weight.
Too much sugar in a calorie deficit diet is probably not the healthiest of diets though. Focus on getting adequate protein and make sure you are fulfilling your micro nutrient needs.
If most of that sugar intake is from fruit and veg you probably are. If it's mainly from fortified grains - well maybe not.

You've had a lot of threads about sugar lately, I think you know the answer by now.
