I was already avoiding sugar, but I also wasn't nearly as diligent about my diet when I was in my early 20's. 

Seed oils weren't on my radar until the past few years. I had a sense of which oils were healthier than others, so I would have been slightly avoiding them, but I didn't realize that seed oils were basically toxic.

Was avoiding added sugar and seed oils something new when you went fully plant based? Or is that something you did before as well?

I would say I aspire to a whole foods vegan diet, but implement it imperfectly. I don't eat many grains and I avoid anything with added sugar, seed oils, etc.
