Well..  halfway through our 1st day of the 5dpt... and it's harder than I thought it would be.  I have really become aware of how much I graze throughout the day.  I find myself going to the fridge, or cupboards...and realizing that I would normally grab something to munch.. now I'm grabbing a Propel, or Crystal Lite.. etc.. 

So far, 2 Protein shakes... one with a yogurt thrown in. And lots of Propel and Crystal Lite!

I did manage to get to Curves this morning.. first time in 2 weeks... man, I really need to get back into that habit! 

Wish us luck (hubby and I)

I totally agree with you.  When I did the 5dpt I couldn't believe how many waters I went through to keep for reaching for food.   That's how I knew I was sooo outta line with the grazing.    It was eye opening.   Secondly was the not drinking with my meals.   I always thought I was good at that but when I really knuckled down and used the clock to time my 30 mins. post meal drink, I realized I was sneaking stuff in at the 15 min. mark and it was contributing to it sliding on through.   DRY, DRY, DRY really makes a huge difference in feeling your food in your pouch.   Seems all my world's a slider....

Jackie, that is my main problem too. Drinking while eating and too close after. That is one of the hardest things for me.

Hang in there. I actually felt really good doing the test. Less bloated. I guess because of all the carbs I normally eat.

You can do it! I am still doing days 3,4,5 this week.

When life hands you lemons, ask for tequila & salt and give me a call!
