Hi Brandi!!
Let me tell you it was rough yesterday. I was moody, I had a headache. I had to cave in and drink another cup of coffee. I even had a little bit of dizziness. I felt like crap and being a carb junkie had me paying for it yesterday. I almost caved in and said one slice of whole wheat with PB&J will not hurt! But I held back and said nope no way. My hubby Gino is doing the 5DPT too and he really encouraged me to hang on when it was looking grim for me.
I must say that so far I am doing so much better than yesterday. I am not dizzy, no headache yet and not hungry. The mental hunger really kicked my butt yesterday. But like I said to Linda today is ia better and brighter day.
I am happy to report that I have los****er weight in one day 5lbs 4 oz yay! I will be back to normal hopefully by the end of the week.
By the way I used to say the same thing I am not over eating because the weight is the same. But then it comes that time when your body is not going through the malnutrition phase anymore and girl it catches up quickly.
I will report daily to let you know how it's going. :)
Have a great day on purpose!

We are all guilty of poor eating habits over the holidays. I know that I took full advantage of not being a dumper and had my way with every holiday cookie known to the human race ... and then some. I am back to protein and veggies beginning yesterday. Let's keep each other in check and on the right path.

Hi Linda,
Thank you so much for your support. Yesterday was a rough day! Boy I almost gave in last night but I held on. Today is a brighter and better day. Thank God!
How are you doing?

Happy new year, Cira!
I'm interested in seeing how the 5DPT works for you. I, too, have become a carb-junkie once again and am not eating as well as I should. I don't think I'm overeating, as the scale is still staying the same, but I am eating way too many "bad" carbs and I know eventually it will catch up with me. Good luck and keep us posted on your progress.

Topic: 1st day of the 5 day pouch test
Happy New Year everyone!
I am so happy that the holiday season is now over. Whewwwww that was a rough one. I inherited the carb monster over the holidays and ingested too much coffee. I have decided to do the 5 day pouch test to get rid of the carb cravings that I have. I had been grazing all day long for the past 2 months and I need to stop myself now,
I am so depended on coffee as well. I went from 2 cups of coffee a day to about 4 or 5 which is not good. Because coffee will trick your body into feeling hungry.
So today I am limiting my coffee intake to 3 cups and slowly back down back to 1 or 2 a day. I hope I don't get a horrible caffeine withdrawal headache. If not I will have the other cup and then gradually cut away like 2 to 3 ounces out each day.
So I am doing great not hungry really but I have noticed that I am feeling a little dizzy here and there. But I know that is the carb withrawals.
I am posting this here to be accountable to myself. So I make sure to stay on track. I love some support as well. :)
Have a wonderful day on purpose!
