Anyone up for doing the 5 day pouch test next week

[Lisa J]

Hi, Salski mentioned doing the five day pouch test next week which made me think about doing it myself. I cant start till wednesday but it would be great if a few of us did it together.

There is a sticky from Phatgirl about the five day pouch test if anyone wants to read up on it.

Count me in for a Monday start (err, that's tomorrow folks). I'm starting to see myself slide into a carb cycle and I'ld like to kick that monster to the kerb before it gets a grip. I'm sorta looking forward to the all liquids stage because then I can indulge in my favourite protein concoction - Protein Chai Tea - all hot, spicy, sweet and very satisfying. Will keep you posted on how I get on.

Kirsty, In my opinion 12 weeks is too soon to be considering the 5DPT. The purpose of the 5DPT is to reintroduce the restriction that is felt when we are newly post op. You should still have very good restriction at your stage.

I am starting it tomorrow! I am hoping it might help me to start losing weight again. I stopped losing weight almost a year ago and I still need to lose another 4 stone. I am getting very depressed and frustrated because no matter what I have tried I can not lose a single pound!

Keep us posted on how you get on! what are you eating tomorrow?
