You need to replace on with the other not restrict completely.

I typically try to avoid candy but this is a very rare/occasional treat I'm letting myself have.
In my regular everyday eating though I do need to add more carbs. I don't typically eat rice, beans, potatoes, pasta, etc in most of my everyday meals so that's probably what's missing. I do like that stuff, I just fell into the habit of not eating enough of them
