Regarding the 5 Dayer...

Well after MUCH conversation with DH last night ( he talked I listened)  he does NOT want me to do the five day pouch test. He doesnt want me losing a pound more and thats what will happen.    He's very concerned and pointed out that at 119 ( yes back to 119) if I lost five on the test it would not be good.  Looks wise and weakness. Im sorry friends...but I want you all to still do it and I will pump you up so much... I will help in any way and cheerlead my ass off!!!!!!!  

I hope your not disapointed in me  :(

That sounds like a wise decision Linda. I'm just glad you got things rolling for the rest of us.

Thanks Deb... I feel so guilty getting the ball rolling and then bailing.  :( You guys will rock it...its only five days..... YOU CAN DO IT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hugs

Hi LA! Sounds like a wise decision.  And you do know that your pouch works like a fine-tuned watch. (or however that saying goes!) And I have started the 5 DPT!  I had diet CIB for breakfast. (I guess I did have this stuff in the pantry long enough!) (((HUGS))) **SUE**

You go girl !!!   Im sorry if I let you down :( Keep up the good work and check in everday!!! Hugs goin North to you !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Listen GF--you do not have to apologize for being SMART!!  I really believe that for you to do the 5DPT would be detrimental to your health! But I will certainly appreciate your wonderful cheerleading skills! YOU ROCK! (((HUGS)) **SUE**

Great decision Linda A.    I think you are leading this by example.....it's okay to think about things like this and it is so awesome your DH is involved in your health and you respect his thoughts......what a great pair you are!  :O)    You will be a great cheerleader...you always are!   Enjoy this sunshine today!  :O)   Like Debbie said, you got the ball rolling for the others who needed the inspiration!  

I say this will love for you little missy, but I could kiss your hubby!!!!  Thanks God he expressed himself......When you posted the 5 day test, I thought "WHAT??  Doesn't this cause weight loss???"  NO NO NO Linda!!!  I'm glad the DH put his sweet, caring foot down.  Another example of his taking charge (remembering from another post) and helping you.  Might not be the suggestion you wanted to hear, but it is probably the best one.  There has to be another way for YOU to "purify" yourself of the nasty carb monster.  So don't feel you have to apologize to anyone for coming to your senses..... XXOO

LA, You have not abandoned us!  You are here cheering us on and encouraging us.  You  have to do what is best for you and your health.  And your hubby is right...you probably don't want to lose any more.  I think it's great he is concerned for your health.  What a sweetie! I love your new avatar!  You look amazing!  What an inspiration you are to me....I see you and think I can do that too! Hugs, Debi
