me & my egg drop soup
Dec 06, 2010
I actually ATE egg drop soup today for lunch - I got to chew something other than jello or a popsicle. I didn't eat too much because I didn't want to feel that tight uncomfortable feeling. I am so looking forward to graduating to soft foods but, that won't be until my next visit on the 15th with my doctor - if he says its ok. So far so good the soup has stayed down and I'm feeling good.

egg drop soup
Dec 05, 2010
I'm allowed to add egg drop soup to my liquid diet today and I'm so HAPPY 
. I've been on a strict liquid diet since November 8th. I don't have a scale at home so not sure how much more weight I've lost since my last visit with my doctor. It may be only 9:20am EST but trust and believe as soon as the Chinese Restaurant opens I will be placing my order.
I'm still suffering from the gout pain and waiting for a call back from anyone of my doctors to tell me something good - I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

my 2nd gout attack since surgery
Dec 05, 2010
This really sucks!!!! My RNY surgery date was on Monday, November 22nd and by Wednesday, November 24th I could feel my joints getting stiff -- not a good sign. Woke up around 3:30am Thanksgiving morning and could not walk because of the gout. The gout pain was more painful than my stomach pain. Thank GOD the stomach pain is bearable now but, I am suffering with the pain from this gout attack. I don't understand -- I'm not eating anything. My Dr. is very strict and I am still on clear broth, liquid protein drinks, sugar free jello and sugar free popsicles, crystal light, and water. I'm wondering now could this gout be from the liquid proteins?!?!? I've emailed my surgeon, primary care physician and my rhematologist. Does anyone out there also suffer from gout or has in the past? Your advice is greatly appreciated.

where do I begin.....
Nov 17, 2010
First let me begin with I wish I had found this website earlier in my WL journey (which began about a year ago). The various posts/blogs I've been reading all have been worth the read. Its a real eye opener to read there are people out there just like you experiencing the same things -- just like you. Its reassuring to know WE are not alone :-)
I'm 4 days out until surgery.....I"M SO EXCITED and just about ready ;-) my hospital bag is packed and ready to go...LOL My family on the other hand is nervous but, not me - because did I tell you, I"M SO EXCITED!!! (in my sponge bob voice) I'm ready, I'm ready
