When should we start? I'll need to go to the grocery store to get prepared or I'll not be able to fini**** for sure!! Heidi, you in with us? Anyone else wanna join?

Nanette! I'd be up for trying it again...maybe with some butt kickin' along the way! I had the same goal as you...back to basics! Love to get in the 160s soon, too! Jean

Hi, everyone! Been awhile since I've posted, too! Haven't checked out the graduate board yet....I like it here, lurking most days but here! Seems like everyone is in the same boat with wt loss....I've really slowed up the past few months and have been hovering around 178 or so. Did finally get the scale to move to 175 after a casual attempt at the 5 day pouch test thingy. Did great for the first two days, all liquids but lost the info for the 3rd day. Did another of all liquid and then gave up on the last two. I just tried to follow basics as best as I could. For whatever reason, I did loose a few pounds last week! Have any of you tried that 5 day thingy? what do you think? Have a great day, hope to hear from you all soon. Jean

Well I would love to weight 150. That's below goal for me lol. So in my book you are a success. Enjoy the rest of your summer. Heidi
