You would definitely have needed to cut the sugar due to your very poor insulin sensitivity due to such a high level of fat originally plus your most likely high intake of it. As you were trying to your correct eating habits it was a good idea as, sugar is one way of easily overeating especially a sugary and fatty Max Brenner dish (hi Kev). Once you corrected those issues though adding some sugar back in would not make an issue as you would find that as you have a lot more muscle now your insulin sensitivity has come back to a more normal level (hopefully) and that sugar is less an issue for you especially in the eating habits area (hopefully again). Overall though the main important point was reducing sugar helped you easily reduce your calorie intake the same goes for people reducing fat.
