Saturday, January 9. Retrying sugar overload.

So the UA went down, which means it is very unlikely the fish oil affects it. And today I will retry the sweet experiment, since I was interrupted last time by the bathroom heater failing. If nothing else, I am reminded of how much I dislike sweet food.
​Todays weather and temperature: Cold (minus 7 deg c in the morning) but beautiful.
Breakfast: Sandwich and a cinnamon roll at Starbucks. Plus hot cocoa with sugar when we got home. Discovered too late there was bacon in the sandwich. Oh well.
​Morning snack: More cocoa, added some sugar although it was already sweet.
Lunch: Take-out from our favorite Chinese restaurant, if you do nor eat the prawns in the chilli prawns or the pork in the su-buta and only eat the sauce, then it becomes reasonably low-purine. Especially if you also add the stir-fry with tofu and Chinese cabbaage I made earlier.
Drink with the meal: Kids cocoa with some instant coffee and three spoons of sugar. Ugh. Really reminded me of why I like my coffee black.
Snack: No snack in the afternoon. But milk with sugar.
Dinner: Oden - only soup, konjac, eggs, and gluten chickuwa. More than enough.
Todays supplements and dosage: Six fish oil capsules, and aojiru in orange juice.
In addition, since I wanted to check the effect of sugar without purines, I had a glass of milk or cocoa with four spoons of sugar at 8, 10, 12, 2, and 5. That should provide plenty of sugar but since my meals were almost purine-free the effect of food should be excluded.
Todays UA reading: 4.5 mg/dL. Yay for a low-purine diet! And more excercise than 10000 steps.
Todays step count: 7167 steps
How much did I drink today?: Coffee 1 liter, cocoa 1 liter, water 2 liter. Milk 0.5 liter. Total 4.5 liter, approx 1 2/7 US gallon.
This weeks weight: 121.8 kg
​Waist circumference: 120 cm
How many times did I go to the toilet today? #1 8 times, #2 2 times.
My urine pH this morning (for why this matters, read more here): 7
Was my urine strange in any way? No
How many minutes did I use the Sixpad Foot Fit Plus? None, no desktime today.
