R U Starting 5dpt today?? My update!

Hi all, I know alot of you are starting the five day pouch test today.  So I wanted to share my experience with you.  Yesterday was my last day of the test.  Today I weighed at the Dr. office (I don't and won't own a scale!)  Drum roll, ready..........8 lbs lost Yep I'm tooting my own horn!  I never thought that I could be that full during the 5 days.  Not only did it give me some weightloss but I feel so much better with my system "carb" flushed.  If only I could get a grip on the carb thing.  Seems I can't just eat a "few" carbs....they grow and grow and before I know it  BAM....there I am again.  I would love to lose more weight.  I've been maintaining for the last 1 1/2 years, but eating poorly.  So back to basics for me.  Good Luck to all of you starting today.  It gets easier as the days pass.  Keep us informed on your progress and thank you for supporting me!

Yeah!  So glad for you and thanks for encouraging us 1st Day folks!  I am really excited and doing okay so far.  I think I need to work on the water though.  I don't see that I will be able to get all the water in, which has always been problematic for me.  Keep us up-to-date as to if you still feel in control of that ugly old carb monster!  You know, it sure is easier thinking in terms of wanting to shed 10 lbs than 110 lbs!  God forbid that EVER becomes a problem again!  I am so very thankful for RYN. 

I never got in water!!  I was the worlds worst about it.  Finally I decided to get the bottled water real cold.  Now I take it like  medicine.... 3 sm. bottles a day.  I still don't like it but hey, I guess it really does help!  I never feel in control of that ugly old carb monster.  Instead of one day at a time, I go by one meal at a time!  Good Luck tomorrow will be day 2 for you.  D

CONGRATULATIONS!! I bet that felt AMAZING!

I was truly shocked!!! Hope you are doing well.  I love the support you give.  Thanks. D

Now THAT is good news & is enough to help the rest of us keep going.

Now miss candace...you better keep going or else I'll have to come over there and whup ya!  Good Luck, keep us posted. D

Thanks Donna, Yep, you will be tootin' your own horn on Sat.  Please let us know.  D
