Good afternoon everyone,

I hope everyone is enjoying the sunshine.  

Well, just a quick update to let you all know that today is my last day of week 2. I must say that this pouch test diet works wonders and I am feeling great.  I am happy to report that I have not had any desire to munch on slider foods.  I am 1 1/2 pound away from my normal weight 144 and hopefully I can get rid of that within the next week.

I am going to continue with the rule of not drinking and eating and I am staying on track.  I want to work my tool forever! I have realized that I am in charge of my health and weight so I must make the effort to stay healthy and make this tool a complete success. 

My daughter is doing great and said to me today I am not really hungry Mom.  So I am praying that she continues to eat healthy and lose more weight for her sake. 

Gino did wonderful. He lost 9 pounds in 2 weeks and feels great. He hasn't been craving carbs either. Hopefully we can keep it like this for a good while. 

Thank you for all your support and for taking this challenge with me.

Have a great day on purpose!

I am who I am and accept my feelings wholeheartedly.

Thanks for the updates, Cira. I love seeing people that are a good way out and are still able to work their tools. My biggest fear is that I'll somehow "break" it and gain everything back. I'm going to start the pouch test Monday. Pray for my coworkers!

Hi Brandi,

I am so glad that I was able to encourage and give some people a new found confidence that they can truly still work their tool no matter how far along they are post op.  Even pre ops can try it and it works wonders.

Keep us posted on how you do with the 5DPT.  Day 1 will be a killer so I will pray for your coworkers. I hope they survive it.  lol

Good luck!

Cira

P.S. check out the recipes ahead of time so you can prepare for each day in advance.  By the way s/f french vanilla pudding great value brand (walmart) is the bomb!   yummy! No after taste.
