Weaning off of prednisone & pain management

My husband just bought four bottles of tart cherry juice at Trader Joe’s. My only concern is the calorie count. Even unsweetened, it is 160 calories for 8 oz. I am trying so hard to lose my extra 12 lbs gained during the last nine months on P, because I am facing shoulder replacement surgery in January. Trying to lose the weight and the P by then. So I may switch to the capsules just to eliminate the calories.

I’ve seen the cherry juice at Trader Joe’s also but I did not check the nutritional label for sugar. In my research different brands of tart cherry juice can contain anywhere from 0 to 32 gm. of sugar per serving!
So I might be better off with the capsules after all. I will see if I can find a 0 gm one to try to see if I like the taste!
