I just hopped on the scale this morning, with some degree of trepidation, because I have been eating way too much, esp. carbs.  It all started with Thanksgiving dinner, but I digress.

I was up to 158.5, and I have made it my permanent goal in life to stay in the 150s, so I have decided to take action here and now.  I'm going to do a version of the five day pouch test ( www.5daypouchtest.com ) to get my carb cravings under control.  Anyone in the same boat and want to join me today?   It has really helped me to get carbs out of my system and to up my protein intake, while giving my pouch a break from all the digestion it's been doing, when I've done it in the past.

I'm off to the store to get a few things for soup recipes from the website!

Steph:  I will do this with you but it will have to be over the weekend when I start.  Never heard of the 5 day pouch test.  You said your doind a version of the test so what is your version?

I have gained 10 pounds and I don't want to go up in the scale, I wanna go down.  I still want to loose about 30 more pounds but my husband says a lot of this is excess skin.  I don't know.  Anyhow, I just started taking in my protein powder again and drinking that as I have not been doing so. 

Let me hear back from you.
