    As little as possible, most particularly that which has been added (as opposed to naturally occurring in a particular food.) Some are effectively allergic to it (diabetics and the insulin resistant) and should more aggressively avoid it than others, but given that most have gotten to the point of needing WLS these days by the excessive amount of sugar and sugar analogs (like highly processed flours, etc.) in their diet, we should all be working to minimize them.
