Still haven't started yet.

I still haven't started the diet.  I am currently cooking some broccoli and onions to make a creamy broccoli soup.  I'd use soy milk for the creamy part.  Hopefully, I'll be able to come up with a soup that tastes good.  I don't have a recipe but I frequently make a cream of celery soup with kind of the same formula.  As far as how I feel, getting started, I am still in this "pain storm" that I've been in for a few weeks.  All of my joints hurt, my urinary tract hurts, I'm having some weird random abdominal pains and my legs hurt all the way up and down.  I rated my pain as a 6/10 this morning, but it has eased up some at this point.  I'm taking it pretty easy today, just doing a few dishes and some light cleaning, watching some YouTube and eating things I won't be able to eat after today (for a while), like a Hershey bar with almonds and a bowl of Chex cinnamon with real milk. 


Here's a picture of some of the things I need in order to get through a day. 

Urinary pain relief, anti-diarrheal (not every day), Biotene, eye drops, eye ointment, Turmeric, prescription pain meds and Burt's bees chap stick (every day).  I also often take Tylenol and Advil, just to help me cope with my daily pain. 

I hope I feel better in a few days.
