Oh gosh. I wish I were able to be as careful about sugar. It is my downfall. I am a year into PMR and am okay most days meaning not much pain (even on Kevzara) and it's tolerable. I eat only whole foods except for white sugar. I made a Dutch baby for my husband and me this morning. I put cinnamon sugar on it and fresh berries. I will not do that again! I am having my right hip replaced on July 28th (if my echocardiogram is okay). I will make a promise to you and me to be better. At 80 surgery is tough.

@mlz I gave up refined sugar 4 years ago. It was very tough the first month but now I really don't even want sugary snacks when I see or smell them. It is a true addition and I was determined to be the winner.
I drank black coffee, no tea and no sodas. I have always been perfectly good with plain water or wine. It was worth the effort, but I will tell you it was not easy the first month.
I wish you success with your surgery. Slow and steady wins the race at our age.
