I do the same. I don't eat chocolate or any other sugar sh*t when I have mangoes, apples, oranges or any other delicious fruit.
In Spain we have a selection of fantastic food, like "jamon" or cheese or fish or nuts(don't eat Californias's ones, they don't taste at all, the best nuts are the ugliest and dirty in the outside ones) so I prepare mini dishes in the refrigerator so five times a day I open it and there is something delicious and healthy. No need for pizzas or hamburgers(nothing wrong about good pizzas, the Italian ones or good hamburgers from time to time).
Eating well gives you energy along the day that nothing is going to give.
Exercise is also not a problem in sunny Madrid, but when I travel to Europe or Boston or Illinois I find it super hard to exercise while is freezing cold out there and cloudy, even going to the gym is so much work.
How is delicious fruit not "sugar shit" exactly? Eating poorly gives you energy too. Energy is measured in calories. Consuming sufficient calories is not a challenge.
Healthier but not necessarily far healthier. It's harder to overeat fruit since much of it has large water and fiber content. But fruit is still mostly empty calorie sugar. When given the choice between junk food and fruit pick fruit but there are alternatives.
Yes, eating fruit will spike your blood sugar just like candy will. Notice how diabetics need to eat candy or fruit if their blood sugar gets low? There's a reason they say either one, because they have the same effect. Sugar is sugar. You believe adding a tiny amount of a few vitamins that are easy to get well over your RDA of already makes candy into health food. I believe candy is still candy even with a bit of vitamin C in it.
