5DPT - Day 4 - FIRM PROTEIN how you doin'!

Taken from the 5 Day Pouch Test Journal by Kaye Bailey

Day 4 - Firm Proteins: Protein Recommendations:  ground meat (beef, turkey, lamb) cooked dry and lightly seasoned, shellfish, scallops, lobster steamed and season only with lemon, salmon or halibut steaks, grilled and lightly seasoned.  By now you should be experiencing that familiar tightness that will reassure you that your pouch is working.  Remember to drink plenty of water between meals.  Take some time to meditate and rediscover the wonder of your pouch.  Often we don't like that uncomfortable tightness of the pouch, which is why we gradually move toward slider foods that don't make us uncomfortable.  It is always my preference to eat moist protein so I don't get uncomfortable, but this allows me to consume more than I should.  Rediscovering the pouch with this 5-day plan reminds me of how the tool really works.  I hope by now you are rediscovering your tool and enjoying the hope and excitement because your pouch still works  Kaye Bailey

Don't know who is still with me but I am still here, not perfect, feeling better, and moving forward .

Hi,,I'm also on day 4. I have a lot more control of my eating now and I feel wonderful! The carb cravings are almost gone. I found that if I have my second protein shake in the evening, it keeps me feeling full and not needing to graze! I have to go away for the week-end so I'm setting up a plan of action so I'm not tempted to undo what I've acomplished!

Hope all is good with you!

Cindy

Best wishes on your Day 4 Cindy :)
