Makes sense. What sugar are you cutting?

Are you just eliminating desserts, sugary drinks, stuff with white sugar? Or are you reading all packaging and not eating any food with any sugar or carbs? What about fruit?

My knee pain is pretty severe. I am fairly thin but I think the knees would be better if I lost 10 pounds. That's hard to do on my thyroid meds (Graves). I also watch my carbs but I am not completely off them right now. Probably should be. Sucks to get old.
