Day 5 of the 5 Day Pouch Test
Jan 07, 2009
Well I am happy to say I have completed with what I think is success on the 5dpt. It was so easy to do, I didn't cheat at all, I followed the program to the "T". Today we were allowed to have firm protein (chicken & beef) well for dinner I made this crock pot garlic & thyme chicken and I measured out 4 ounces and I could not finish the 4 ounces at all. I was full, before I did this I would have ate the 4 ounces, some mashed potatoes and a veggie. I am so glad I did this, it really took me back and made me see my mistakes and what I need to get back to doing. Our surgery is just a tool and if we don't use the tool correctly it won't work. It is kind of like trying to use a hammer to screw in a screw, it just doesn't happen the way it should. I have found some great new recipes and will be using them in the future. I am going to Ocean City, MD with my churches youth group for the Peninsula Delaware Conference annual youth rally, but I have decided I am taking an egg bake for my breakfasts, a case of water, 3 protein bars and some other healthy things for me to eat. There will be no Dough Rollers pizza going into my pouch or anything else that is bad for me. I have complete control of my pouch and the head will not win this one.I highly recommend anyone who needs to get back on track to try this plan, it is very helpful and fairly easy to do. I am going to try to do it about every other month too, just to keep me on the straight & narrow. If anyone has any questions please feel free to contact me, I will answer what I can.
