The first questions I have is what is the 5 day pouch test?  Next, I'm hearing alot of people say that carbs go down way too easy.  I am 6 mos out and I've lost 50 lbs.  Weight is very, very slow at this point, usually about 1 lb a week or less.  I have a very hard time with carbs.  Anything more than 1 bite of carbs, pototoe, wheat cracker even good carbs other than veggies and I'm sick (by sick I mean, rapid heart beat nauseaus and just don't feel well, it lasts for about 30 mins, no stomach pains just a felling of nausea)....I guess I should be glad that I can not tolerate carbs.  Has anyone else experienced this? 
I feel like I'm stalling again.  Is it common to have a stall at 6 mos?  I stalled at 3 mos, but I upped my protien and it seemed to help.  Sometimes, I think I'm eating too much, I try to get in 3 protien drinks a day and with them included I'm getting between 1000-1200 cals a day. with at least 1000 grams of protien.    I work about 30 mins from my house so I eat out most days for lunch.  I usually eat good food, since I can't tolerate carbs.  I just have been able to eat salad without getting sick but I have to be careful and not eat too much.  I'm having a probelm getting too hungry at night when I get in from work, I usally only eat lunch and dinner....

upon rising protien coffee w/1 1/2 scoop unflavored unjuy   30 grams protien
B-Greek Yogurt 10 grams protien
L-Grilled chicken breast w/veggie or grilled or baked fish w/veggies
sometimes I will eat beef jerky or snack size almonds if I'm hungry
Protien Coffee-30 grams protien
D-Protien and veggie
I used to have a 3rd protien shake but here lately I've just had to force it down so, I quit doing a 3rd one because I feel like I am getting enough protien, but weight loss has really slowed down.....

Does anyone see anything wrong with this?  Am I eating too much at 6 mos out? 

Thank you in advance for any comments!!!

These are great questions and I hope folks will give you some feedback. I'm going to post it on a separate thread so folks will see it.
