Pouch test for those of you farther out! And some pics cause we know i love them
Hello my loves!
I can finally start exercising! Thank god because i seriously think i gained 5 pounds in like a week. It was my birthday though so that's the excuse i'm sticking with. Also when i get home im throwing away anything that isn't healthy because i can't take this any more!
So on with the question, has anyone tried the 5 day pouch test? I think i could eat a whole cow, seriously, sometimes i just CANT get full. So I really want to try it starting Monday but i'm not sure if 1 i can do it without dying and 2 if it works. Advice please:)
Also! I got my hars cut, woo!
don't mind the fat arms!
birthday party fun
i now realize that shirt isn't very flattering, it's just so cute
dancing!
drunk and sitting under a tree at my brothers wedding, hahaha
anyways i hope you all are well, it's almost the weekend!!

Hey Girl...I can't see your pics here at work but I am sure you look amazing...
I just started the pouch test today and was about to post about it...I am sooo determined to do this...no matter what others say...I will KILL the CARB MONSTER!!!!! So far so good...If you go to the forum they have (just google 5dpt and it is the first one that pops up) there is loads of support just for that...Hope all goes well. I started the test today cause my birthday is Tuesday and I did not want to be on liquids on my birthday...so I will be on "solid" proteins and I can eat some chicken and a salad lol

Surgery Date:April 23, 2007
I put a review of the pouch test on my profile, I feel you can accomplish the same effect by holding yourself accountable and following the rules.
Keep in mind different foods effect you differently - 'slider foods' will rarely fill one up because they move right thru... if its more of a mental thing than physical I suggest reading up on "mindful eating" and address that side of things.

Alex - you look GORGEOUS, girl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Do you ever just stop and shriek and dance over how awesome things have turned out for you??? 
I can't offer you advice on the pouch test, b/c at 8 mos I still get full pretty quickly. Maybe Mary the Barix NUT can offer some insight?

I don't hardly recognize myself or my life anymore!
You are too cute- wether you feel the shirt is or isn't flattering, I love the color!
Personally, not a fan of the test... but if it works for you, go for it. There are times where I can't get full and I realize it is my head. When I'm stressin, I'm a vacuum.
Keep it up, gorgeous!

The more things the change, the more they're still the same.
Hey Reese, I love the new hair doo. You resemble Katie Holmes :)..... You look amazing. I have tried doing the 5 day pouch test but never succeeded. I got hungry on the 2nd day. I will ususally do protein shakes as meal replacement once a day. Believe it or not I still crave the protein shakes and still like them they taste yummmyyyyyyy.... How do you like your new tummy?
