Yay!! I ALMOST did it!!!

I started my 5-Day Pouch Test  last Sunday and finished on July 3rd.  On the first 4 days I was able to stick to the plan.  On day 5; however,  I deviated a little by eating some seafood stuffing.  I went to the store to get some fish when I saw this roll of seafood stuffing.  I looked at the ingredients and saw that It contained bread crumbs but I got it anyways.  I rolled some of it into fish filets and baked them..  I also put some of it in mushroom caps and added a little mozzerella cheese and baked them also.  Of course I had to make a small salad to go along with this. My stuffed fish and mushrooms was very yummy and I'll probably make some again but not during my next 5DPT! Even though my Day 5 was not perfect, I feel that I my 5DPT was successful because I was able to "listen to my pouch" telling me to not overeat.  I also lost 3#!!  Even though the 3# was probably jus****er weight It still felt good to get on the scale and see a 3# loss. This puts me near the 150# mark which is pretty close to one of my goals.  On the 4th of July, I was able to stick to grilled chicken and vegetable kabobs and 2 bones of baby back ribs.  The potato salad, corn-on-the-cob and all the other picnic foods were very tempting but I managed to stay away from them.  I'm going to try the 5DPT again 5 days before the next food occasion.  Wish me luck!!!

LOL@ the bread crumbs!! but i totally feel you. I am sooooooooooooooo addicted to BREAD (crackers included) - & all the wrong kinds too! GFU for being able to recognise those things & being able to hear your pouch again & 3lbs count (in my book) either way you look at it so - That sounds like a success to me!

Hi Miss Candace Thanks for your words of encouragement.  I saw a post few weeks ago from another member syying something like "Crackers (and any other bad carbs) are the Devill!! I certainly believ it and I certainly hope to exorcise that Carb Devil!!
