    I don't worry about watching my sugars, mainly because all of the sugar I consume is from fruits and not added sugars (except for morning coffee with a teaspoon of sugar, and if I have oatmeal I add brown sugar). As long as you aren't eating a significant number of calories a day from fruit, I wouldn't worry. Like today, I had a 1/2 glass of OJ at breakfast and will have 1 cup of raspberries at lunch, so my sugars are already through the roof. I don't really sweat it.

    I eat a ton of fruit -- between four and ten servings a day. I am healthy as a horse and I've lost over sixty pounds.

    Fruit is good for you. Period.

    Thank you guys so much for not telling the OP that 'all sugars are the same and fruit is bad' it drives me insane when I see posters make claims like that. Fruit is good for you, fresh fruit is by far the best for sure.
