Hey all!  I am on day 3 of the 5DPT and it's going great!  A little of a headache but other then that I feel AWESOME and in control again!!  Woot Woot!!!  I haven't been on the scale since I started and and restraining myself!  I thought I would be starving and would have "cheated" by now but I actually have to remember to eat!!  WOW!  ALso, I have noticed that I used to snack (even healthy ones) because I thought I was hungry WELL, that feeling has popped up and I drank my water and if that didn't cure it I would have milk with some protein (that happened once).  SOOOO, I am surprised that we may sometimes think we are hungry but in reality are thirsty! Sorry, for the ramble!   HUGS!!

Congratulations Sandra!  I love the 5dpt, the control I feel is awesome.  As for the "thinking your hungry" when you are thirsty, I've heard this many times and it affects me too. Wow, you have restraint, I love my scale or addiction to it......can't imagine not weighing, lol.

Thanks dear!  I want to weigh soooooo bad~!!!  That thirsty thing is weird!  Glad I am not alone!  Since doing this 5DPT I have been drinking about 70oz water plus shakes, coffee, and milk.  Before this I would get about 50-60 of water.....guess I need to keep the water intake up!

It's so awesome to feel in control again.  I was so amazed...The water.... yes!!!! It still keeps me from grazing and munching too much. Even months later after doing that test I still use water to curb hunger....even though I have cut out most bad carbs and sugar...I still have sugar in my soy milk and dairy...and fruits...(protein bars too) But I don't eat enough bad carbs to crave them anymore or to leave me with sever hunger like I had.  My night munchies were killing me! I still get night munchies, but NOTHING like before...I am a night owl anyway so I eat late snacks but don't eat for a good 5 hours before I go to bed so that's good!   You will feel really good when this is over and hopefully you can grab a hold of where you want your weight to go once you have control of carbs and continue using water as a filler in between meals and snacks!  I have to remember to keep filling my glass lately!  I'm falling behind on water today! Good going so far!  Keep it up! It gets so nice and easy the last few days! Anita
