I too recommend reading all you can. This forum is a super wonderful place to discuss different approaches and we all will see things a bit different. But nothing can replace the textbook knowledge.
As Benay states, fruit and juices are no where to be found...at least in the beginning. Reading books that discuss how your body processes everything will aid in the understanding of your plan. It's not just watching the number of carbs, it's understanding what carbs are acceptable.
My favorite reading has been books from Gary Taubes, Davis and also Perlmutter. "Why We Get Fat..." by Gary Taubes is a great beginner book in my opinion but "Wheat Belly" and "Grain Brain" rank pretty high too.
Best wishes in your journey - we are all here to help you achieve the success you want!
