5DPT'ers!!! Report in!

How are ya doing????  Getting your 64oz of water?!?!?!  Getting your protein in???  Need any help????  Don't forget SF pops or fudgies For me:  It's going great!  Although I need to use the rest room more.........been tempted a time or to and just grabbed my water and downed it!  AMAZING how my head tells me hunger and I'm not!!!  Feeling fab and wooo hooooo bring it on!!  WE CAN DO THIS!!! ****If you are doing the 5 day please report how you are doing as accountability and support when needed!! HUGS!

Doing good here.  I haven't been hungry at all.  But....I'm normally not.  I just eat cause I'm bored I believe.  I have had 2 CIB's w/ 1/2 scoop protein and have had 60 oz of water so far.   Not sure how I'll do on Wednesday as that is Justin's funeral.  I may end up doing this again next week if it doesn't work this week. Thanks for starting this.

You are doing great!  HUGS!!

I've had some moments of hunger and longing for soy crisps, but I've been stronger than the desire and have only had 2 protein drinks, 1/2 c of soup and 2 small sf puddings.  I've been able to get in all of my water, plus some, and after I eat my soup for dinner I should have in all my protein too. I only had to do 2 days of LD prior to surgery and 2 weeks after.  Mine was so easy, before surgery I was so scared and nervous that I could not eat any thing and after, well, you know how you feel after surgery, so that was easy too. I don't know how people do this for 3 and 4 weeks prior to surgery...You are all my heroes!!!!! Thanks for organizing this...I need to get over my carb addiction before it shows up on my hips, butt and gut!! Lots of love, Debi

Hi Ya!!! I did great today....I even worked out this morning to Turbo Jam and went to Curves on  my lunch hour!  Yeah for me! My hubby is actually doing this with me these 5 days.  He is stuck on a plateau himself.  he hasn't had surgery...he is dieting.  This should boost his metabolism and get things moving again. It helps me also.  I was fine all day until I got home and now suddenly I am starved.  Gotta go make us some soup! I'll catch up with everyone's messages tomorrow and see how each day goes.  Good luck to all.

I was doing well until I took vicodin for my knee........it didn't agree with pouchy at all, so I had to eat a couple of crackers to settle my stomach down. Tomorrow I will deal with the pain and skip the vicodin!

Hello fellow 5DPTers!  Tthis has been so easy!  I've had four SlimFast Low Carb shakes, s/f plain jello, chicken broth (with poultry seasoning),strained lentil soup (broth only) and s/f hot chocolate.  Have been peeing all day just from that, I've only gotten in 16 oz plain water.  Will likely be up late tonight/early-mid a.m., so will definitely finish out the 64 oz water.  What type soup is allowed?  I thought the first two days were 'liquid', and I've made sure I don't chew anything.  Is that correct?  I better go find my printed sheets on this.  Best of the best to all of us!  Hugs galore, Patti

Hello Sandie.....I started my 5dpt and got called to St. Paul last night. I am at my daughter's taking care of my grandson Lucas.  I will have to start over now. I ate with them last night. Next wek Nic  will be with me so it won't be until the next week. Guess it just wasn't meant to be this time. I will be watching to hear how all of you are doing. I am still hoping to make it to North Branch on Saturday!! Hugs and love, connie d Hugs, connie d
