5 day pouch test..join me

Just testing to see if my photo got added to my post.

Thanks Kimber, I had the same experience. My pouch is feeling small again as well. Some of us are going again this Monday. I want to lose a few p;ounds and continue to keep my stomach tight. If you want to stay in touch go to the California board and read under 5DPT to see what we are up to and start again with us if you so desire. Thanks again for your positive in put.. Jane PS one does not need to be from California to play along you know the more the merrier.

Hey Jane-Please keep me posted. I'm in this go around.

Aliya, Last week I did the 5dpt as you know and it totally worked. I went to breakfast and got full after just a little bit. I'm glad I did it and tomorrow I am going to drink my water and drink my protein drinks. Glad you're here. jane

I AM from California and would love to join you all! Thanks Deborah

Thanks for the info Jane. I started the diet today and I have to say - it is so much harder than I thought it would be! Just goes to show that my addiction to food was getting the better of me. It's Monday night at 8pm and I am fighting not to eat something. But I can do this! Thanks for getting this started - I needed it!

Hi Carol, I am hungry too. I emailed you I hope you got it. I'm going to have some soup later. I had some sf pudding earlier and added some protein powder and it was kind of filling. The hardest thing for me is that dog gone water. As soon as I sign off I'm going to have a big glass yum yum NOT, Keep it up Maysters. Just think we have been at this for 3 years. That is kind of amazing. Also some one actually saw me drinking a protein drink and they said. "oH is that how you stay so slim." Gosh Isn't wls incredible? I guess a little discomfort is worth it. Good luck team. Jane

Hey Jane! I am doing very well-can't wait for solids tommorow!

Hello Jane, I did stick to and complete the whole 5 days. The first two days were extremely hard, especially when the tv was turned on at about 7:30pm. I thought I would go crazy! I went to bed very early those two nights! The next three days were easy in comparison. The whole experience was/is an eye opener to me. I learned that I have not been concentrating on protein first, eating lots of slider foods and slipping more and more into high carb foods - snacks. It was a good time to do this, our three year anniversary. To bring the basic rules back to the forefront. We made a lifetime commitment when we chose to have this surgery, and so many of us were slowly slipping back into bad old habits. Thank you Jane - for knocking some sense into me!

OKI...I'm in. Exaclty what does this entail, please let me know. I could use a boost! SueMcD
