5day pouch test

So I'm thinking about trying the 5 day pouch test but I need a little clarification. I don't think the plan is very clear (or maybe I'm just incredibly anal!) On days 1 and 2, it says you can have protein shakes, broth, clear or cream soups- this is supposed to be the clear liquid period. But some of the recipes they list for soup and such have veggies and ham in them. How does that count as clear liquids?? Some of the recipes on later days include items that aren't on the list of things you can eat. So if this is supposed to be a protein rich program, is it okay to add things like cheese, veggies, and such to recipes? I need some clear guidelines! Thanks! Allison

Hi Allison, the site that many people use is http://www.5daypouchtest.com/ This is a great resource of information, including recipes for each day of the test. Good luck! ~Shannon
