why sugar is forbidden?

Hy again.

I am a little confused regarding this problem.
Don't understand me wrong... I mean I understand that I am not allowed to eat sweets or sugar than I ate before but still I want to know why it is totally forbidden to eat any sweets or things that contain sugar?

My point is that, for example at lunch I have to eat 60hc and I want to eat 30 from food (with slow processing, like bread or potatoes or rise etc.) and 30 from something sweet ... 100g of chocolate contains 60 HC so I could eat 50g, no?... Is it because the sugar in the blood will raise too quickly... or is another cause?

I am not a greedy person and I am not thinking all the time about eating chocolate or cakes (actually, even before discovering diabetes I was not a very sweets eater) but I want to know if it is so wrong to do that. Indeed, there are times when I do want to eat a cake or drink a glass of coke or icecream or whatevere else... but I do not do it.

So, why is the sugar totlly forbidden?
