Wednesday, December 16: Menu, Uric Acid level, step count, and other gout-affecting factors.

Still lots of snow. Looking forward to a brisk walk. Beautiful snowscapes everywhere. And my test strips left San Francisco this morning and landed in Japan in the afternoon.
Breakfast: Cheese onion and carrots gratin, curry onigiri, and some salad.
Lunch: Cheese onion and carrots gratin, bagel with camambert cheese - could not be simpler, just cut the bagel in half, put the camembert cheese on top of the bagel rounds, and pop in the toaster oven for 4 minutes. The camembert melts and the bagels become crispy on the cut side, but still chewy on the outside. Purine-free cooking does not have to be more complicated. Banana for dessert.
Snack: Crackers.
Dinner: Soup (vegetables and konjac) and rice.
Todays supplements and dosage: "Aojiru" in banana smoothie. This morning prepared by my son! Minus the mixing part.
Todays UA reading: 8.4 mg/dL.
Todays step count: 9667 steps.
How much did I drink today?: Coffee 1 liter, green tea 1 liter, black tea 1.5 liter, water 0.5 liter. Total 4 liters, about 1 1/10 US gallon.
This weeks weight: 121.6 kg
How many times did I go to the toilet today (during the waking hours from 0600 to 2100 - we have small kids, they go to bed early but not without mom or dad)? #1 7 times, #2 4 times.
Was my urine strange in any way? No, completely normal. Maybe smelled a bit of the morning coffee at lunchtime.
How many minutes did I use the Sixpad Foot Fit Plus? Twice, for three minutes at the time.
