5 day pouch test

Mar 07, 2011

So I've been thinking of taking the 5 day pouch test......Does it work ?  I know I've been eating more carbs than I should be which I believe is the reason behind my long stall. I've been at the same weight for over a month now. I'm getting pretty discouraged at this point. When I saw my Dr at  my 3 month checkup I had lost 40 lbs since surgery. In the last 2 months I've only lost 10 lbs. I see him in another month at my 6 month checkup and I feel he is going to be disappointed with me. At the last checkup he told me I was doing good and he wanted to see another 40 lbs. I don't know if he was joking or not . If I were to lose another 10 lbs by then I would happy and not so afraid to see him. I also smoke and want to quit badly but now am afraid I will gain weight back like I've done in the past when I've quit. That was always the reason why I started again. Don't get me wrong I know quitting will be so much healthier for me . I plan on tackeling that as soon as I get this weight thing under control. On another note.....I make my protein shakes with milk and wanted to know is it bad ? I have 2 a day to get in my protein and wondered if it was too many carbs and sugar. I can't stand mixing them with water ugh . I think I've thrown enough questons out there for today. I'm sure there's more to come.
