How much sugar in a day for weight loss?

I'm focusing on fitness and trying to get into better shape. For weight loss, I know sugar is bad, but how much total sugar can I realistically consume per day without hindering my progress?

If you're serious about weight loss, you cannot rely on generic internet numbers for sugar intake. Everyone's metabolism and body are different. Consult a qualified nutritionist or a doctor to get a personalized diet plan. They will factor in your current weight, activity level, and health conditions for accurate advice. Don't fall for fads.

For weight loss, my trainer told me to cut out all added sugar completely. Like, no sugary drinks, no mithai, no processed snacks. Natural sugars from fruits are okay, but even those in moderation. It makes a huge difference, trust me. Just stick to it!

To reduce weight, it is good to minimize sugar from your daily diet. Focus on pure, natural foods. Maintain a positive mind and keep your body active. For specific guidance, a health expert can help, but always remember, balance and peace are key.

I'm also trying to lose some weight, and sugar feels like the hardest thing to cut out! So, is it truly 'zero' added sugar for weight loss, or is a very tiny amount okay sometimes? And what about natural sugars in fruits, are those also limited? It's a bit confusing.

Beta, when I wanted to lose weight after my children, my doctor just said cut down on all the extra sweets and fried foods. It worked slowly. Focus on home-cooked meals and walking. It's not a magic number, just consistent effort. You can do it!

When I started my weight loss journey, I thought I had to literally count every gram of sugar. But my dietician said to just focus on cutting out all *added* sugars. It makes it much simpler. Don't stress too much about the natural sugars in fruits and veggies; just eat them in moderation. It's manageable!
