Anyone want to start the 5 day pouch test Monday with me?

Hi The 5 day pouch test was started by a post op WLS patient and I think she is brilliant!  Go to 5daypouchtest.com and it will tell you ALL you need to know.  It is meant for WLS grads who have put on weight and/or gotten off track.  It is supposed to give you time to reset your pouch and get back to basics all at the same time.  The site is great and tell you all about it and the name of the lady who came up with it.  So many people have been raving about how great it is and how much it helped them so I really really want to try it.  Let me know if you need help.  Check out the site and join us today!

Hi, I am in for the 5dpt on Monday AM. I already bought my shakes at Walmart today. Sandy

Sandy THIS is so cool, I am in shock about how many are going to start with me....ok, it is Monday morning and I am ready to start.....although, I am drinking a diet coke which I know I probably should not do, but I HAVE to have one to start the day.... LOL GOOD LUCK TO US ALL !!!!! Be sure to check in today later on Lorri

What shakes did you buy at Walmart? Also, what are you planning to eat and drink for the 5 day test? I need help in figuring it all out.  Iknow abou the website, but I am curious to see what people are going to eat. Thanks

I bought the Chocolate royale Atkins shakes on sale for $5.96 /6 pack. I also have some unjury unflavored protein to mix with my coffee and soups etc. I will just do my protein drinks and jello for today and tomorrow and then deal with day 3 when it gets here. Sandy

thanks for the help, what are you going to eat on the 3,4,and 5th day? ALso, can I eat pudding on day 1 and 2?

HI lorri I would like to do the pouch test with you. I AM in the same spot you are.. i was down so low and now up there again. I WANT to get that little body back.. although the pouch has never been little..but tight jeans held that in most of the time. lol.  let me know if you dont mind...  thanks.  APRIL

April Hi, I know, it sucks to gain this weight back after going through all the trouble of having the surgery etc....plus the complications I had!  I CANNOT gain this weight back!! I am up to 165 and I was down to 119.  I am on day 2 of the pouch test and I am drinking my protein shake. We can do it....the first 2 days of the pouch test are the hardest, so if we can get through today, tomorrow will be easier! Thanks and let me know how you are doing! Lorri

Lorri, Hello! well you are on day 2.... i hated those protein shakes back then... how do i not eat cereal or 3 pieces of toast instead?   I am so proud of you.... i am certainly  looking up to you now you have made it through day 1 and now on day 2... you are strong... you can do it...  We will get back our little itty bitty body we had at our lowest... i know we will....  april.

Ya'll who are doing the 5Day Pouch Test should go on the 5DPT Forum on the LivingAfterWLS Neighborhood (Kaye Bailey is the one who created the 5DPT).   You will find lots of posts on this plan.  Go to http://www.livingafterwls.com/forum/index.php?showforum=63 Betsy
