Anyone want to do the 5 Day Pouch test with me?
It's a 5 day detox, basically. Some people think it will "shrink the pouch". Not so much. I've done it a couple of times to get back to basics and off the carbs. It's all protien basically, starting with 2 days of protein shakes and working back up to dense protein by day 5.

sounds like a crash diet to me, which I don't do. I can understand having to go off simple carbs, though, you get to eating them and just want more & more.
but I don't see why you have to go liquids & so on - some people swear by it but I would swear at it as I hate rules like that. maybe it's only for those who have a pouch?

once upon a time I had a group to talk about Binge Eating Disorder, and later one about Clean Eating.
PM me if you are interested in either of these.

that's what I say.
maybe because the 5DPT is for WLS peeps specifically? peeps enjoy the "structure" (AKA rules)
go with Atkins is what I say.

I have found it *extremely* helpful when I have done it to kick the freakin' carbs to the curb. Those first couple days are killer tho! LOL

I woke up hungry and told myself that I really wanted some toast... I had the bread in my hand and told myself that in the end it's going to be worth it. I put the bread down and made myself a shake instead. I feel satisfied now. I just need to tell myself no when I get cravings. I haven't been eating well since December 2007. That's all going to change!
