Hi Ruth! Wow, great minds think alike! I just started the 5 day plan yesterday. So, I'm on day 2 of liquids and I'm amazed that I really haven't been hungry, although I have had a slight headache today. I decided I had to do this because I was gettiing waaaaay too obsessed with those evil carbs. It was NOT good. I'm hoping this gets me back on track to eating better again...I'm so scared to ever regain! I'm wishing you the best of luck! We can do this! Hugs, Bobbie

Hey Ruth, I have been thinking of doing this also. I know that something has to be shaken up in my eating patterns, so maybe I will join you by starting tomorrow. Holly

Topic: 5 day plan
I am starting the 5 day plan today. I've gotta get this weight shifted. I am posting this to remind myself that I WILL do my best to stick to it and to be accountable to you guys. Day 1 - fluids only - mainly protein shakes (see below). I've already detoxed from caffeine so that part should be ok Here I go - wish me luck Days One & Two: Liquid Protein The first two days are all liquids. You can have as many low-carb protein shakes as you like to satisfy hunger or cravings. In addition drink at least six 8-ounce glasses of water each day. The purpose of all liquids is to break any snacking, grazing or processed carbohydrate habits. In addition the liquids will work to cleanse your system and prepare you for the following three days. Try to reduce your caffeine intake as well, but do not stop caffeine cold turkey or you will feel sick and frustrated potentially losing the desire to continue with the pouch test. If you notice symptoms of carbohydrate withdrawal you can eat a small piece of melon or an orange. You can also try a dose of Emergen-C which should reduce headache, dizziness or cramping from carbohydrate withdrawal.
