Topic: RE: Day 2 5 Day Pouch Test
Hi Ellen,
The 5 Day Pouch Test website is www.5daypouchtest.com/ It is really good and makes sense to me. There is a book that Kaye Bailey has written that explains it more in detail and gives great receipes. I got on the scale again today and lost another 1.2lbs. Check it out, it is worth a try. It helps break the carb and sugar addiction that we get when we are further out.
I don't get to Wilmington but about once a month, my monthly Costco run...lol. When I come up next time I will let you know so we can get together. I miss seeing you and everyone else. I am going to try and make a Saturday meeting soon.
Take care,

Deanna, You are doing a great job. Keep up the good work. Where did you get the 5 day pouch test? I would love to see what it involves.
Miss seeing you. Call if you are up this way and maybe we can get together. Lots of luck with the job search. I know that adds to the stress eating.
Love, Ellen

Topic: Day 2 5 Day Pouch Test
Hello Delaware,
Well Day 2 is history and I am proud to say I survived 2 days on liquids. It was actually easier then I thought. I had a yummy strawberry shake with yogurt, skim milk and frozen berries for breakfast, I had a double Healthwise Hot chocolate for morning snack, lunch & dinner was the pumpkin & sausage soup and my evening snack was applesauce with a scoop of unflavored Unjury. I didn't have an afternoon snack, had a late lunch and dinner would have been pushed back to about 7pm. I did get on the scale this morning and I lost 2.4lbs in just one day. I was surprised and happy to say the least.
There were a couple of hurdles today too and I resisted them, the men of our church sell sausage sandwiches the 1st Sunday of every month and today was the day. I gave a donation and walked away. They smelled wonderful and I wanted one but I knew that I had the will power to just walk away.
It's not too late to hop on board, it is really easy and I am enjoying rediscovering my pouch.
Have a great night!

Topic: RE: Any Southern Delaware DSers out there?
I would love to get together.
January is crazy for me. Let's plan on something if Feb. Middle of February would work best for me. Maybe I can enjoy a meal by them !!!!!! It "is" getting better.
Maybe we can spread the word and start a group. Wouldn't that be great!!
Thanks for the offer and for responding to my plea for support. It really means a lot to me.
I will keep in touch.
Thank you... Thank you... Marge

Hey, Delaware's small - I'll meet you halfway!! I'm in North Wilmington, but I'll travel. We don't have a support group or anything - so far it's just me and Tiffany (she had the same surgeon as you!), and she's in Bear.
Give me a shout if you want to get together! I'll always do lunch somewhere on a weekend.

Topic: RE: In search of a support group in Wilmington, DE!!
Iman, I am from Sussex County Delaware and run a support group there. If you are ever at the beach you are welcome to stop in and visit our group. I highly recommend the group they have at Victory Fellowship Church. I don't know the address but it is on Rt #40 next to Walmart. 3rd Tuesday of the month at 7p.m. My daughter Debbie and myself come up to this meeting once a month. We love it there. Everyone is like family. Best of luck with your surgery and hopefully we will see you soon. Oh and welcome to the Delaware Board. I hope you post often. See you on the loser's bench where there is always room for one more. Joanne
Topic: RE: Weekend Roll Call
Good Morning Kathy,
If it's prayers you want then it is prayers you will get. I can do that.
I know all about the job scene, I am still out of work (3 months on the 10th). In the 3 months I have emailed and mailed my resume and filled out applications, but I have only been on 2 interviews. It is really scarey out there, there are no good jobs anywhere. Not sure what the baby's mom can do, but I did see an ad in the Guide from the 31st for an office worker in Millsboro for Millsboro Heating and AC. I would have applied, but from Federalsburg it is just to far to travel.
Good Luck,
