I appreciate the additional suggestions. Frankly, trying to wade through all the posts is difficult time-wise. I recently cut back on caffeine (I love coke!) but noticed no difference. Unfortunately I have an ongoing problem with mouth "sores" and lip swelling, and decrease in taste buds, and sugar is one of the things that tastes like it should. Plus, due to digestive issues, I've lost a lot of weight and don't have to "worry" too much about sugar intake at the moment. But I can certainly temper that. I have taken Omega-3s for a long time. Anyway, still determined. I'm getting off the stuff, even if it takes a while.
