coulnd't stop eating sweets even if i wanted to
I have a major sweet tooth. I am really big on balance and moderation, but I do tend to treat myself to some kind of sweet treat everyday. Like, maybe a cookie or brownie, or I don't know some sweet tarts, etc. I'm very thin, so there is not a weight issue with it, drs actually tell me to eat more, but my aunts and other family give me a hard time and acts like it's so bad that i like to eat sugar now and then. It makes me worry that its going to hurt my health. But honestly, I have a sweet tooth that will never come lose and I'm thin and in decent shape, so what is the problem?! It is OK to eat sweets in moderation (even daily), right?!

Hey, don't worry about what other people think about you. No matter what you do, people are ALWAYS going to have a problem with it.
I am very thin and eat A LOT of sweets too, and there is nothing wrong with it.
If the doctor says you are healthy and there is nothing wrong then you should be ok, just remember, there are other problems too.
You could get bad teeth [ like me, my teeth LOOK ok, but they constantly hurt and I need fillings because I eat too much chocolate :( ], so make sure you check your dentist too.
It could also affect you in the long run. For example, let's say that now you are skinny and you eat a lot of sweets, so you continue to eat sweets all the time, but then in the future you start to gain weight or get health problems because you continue to eat unhealthily.
But, by what you have said, it doesn't sound like your diet really is that bad. So, you eat one brownie, cookie, tart, etc. once a day, that isn't bad at all. Some people have desert every day and nothing wrong happens. It is only bad if you eat it ALL THE TIME. Like after breakfast, then after lunch, then after dinner, then before bed, etc.
I wouldn't worry to much, it is fine to have a little sweet thing once a day.
You seem healthy to me! :)

If you don't have diabetes or a weight problem and you are having sugary treats in moderation, I think most doctors would tell you there is nothing wrong with what you are doing! Geeze....what would life be without any sweet treats??? Even diabetics have sugar free desserts!! Enjoy your treats in moderation, even daily!!!!!
