9/25/01 Mark glad to hear your doing well! I'm feeling much better myself today. Sorry I didn't get back to you until now I had a terrible time with gout in my knees and ankles and could'nt get upstairs to my computer. You sound very happy and positive. Good luck tring new foods. I'm doing well tolerating most everything I've tried..eggs toast, milk ,soft fruit, fish, and alittle bit of a pork chop. I had my first dumping episode yesterday on tunafish , not sure if I ate to fast or too much.. but tasted good . I guess it's going to take a alot of trial and error. But its going well so far the lbs seem to be coming off . I,d really like to have a beer but my wife might kill me and I don,t want toget sick so I,ll stick it out a bit longer. KW
