I do agree with most of your post.
If your are gonna have sugars, stick to natural sugars. As said in CFD post, it would be best not to have any.

Natural sugars such as those in fruits are better than processed sugars as fruits do contain healthy nutrients so avoiding any food group, other than processed foods, is not the best choice from a health standpoint. When it comes to how the body reacts to sugar itself, sugar is sugar so a piece or two a day is ok. Some fruits such as strawberries, blueberries, cantelope and grapefruit have less sugar than others so choices are important as well.
Fat's are something, not necessarily in your case, that some people do not understand and think should be avoided like the plague but in fact are essential. That's why I elaborated because when limiting fats is suggested some would think " don't eat fats" so I figured it should be clarified for those that don't know.
