Got it in my ankle a few months ago and it was a huge wake up call to me to make some major changes in my life.

Same here. A couple gout attacks were the wake up call for me. I was a fat slob for the first 33 or so years of my life. I lost about 85 pounds and have since gained it back but it was along with lifting and going to the gym.
