Hey LBT members,

I was just wondering if anyone has ever tried the 5 day pouch test. If so, what were your results...how well did you do? How much weight did you lose in those 5 days?

Hello, I have a question...are we allowed to eat vegetables on the 5 day test or is it just what's listed..

Hey Everybody!

The pouch test should only be a gradual increse in Protein. So you start with liquid Protein for 2 days, soft protein for 2 days and then solid protein for the last day.

Soft protein could be tuna, or any kind of fish, cottage cheese etc...

More solid protein would be chicken, grilled meats, steak, etc

From what I've read, we can't eat veggies during this time.

I actually completed my 5 days and I lost like 2.3 lbs. Not good enough! LOL

Has anyone had any success??

I plan on doing this with my next fill. My question is to those that have already done the test. How was your weight loss in the week(s) subsequent to the test? I would be worried about gaining the weight back the next week or two, or to not loose weight for the next few weeks. Thanks!

I was just wondering what the 5 day pouch test is? I have never heard of it. I had my surgery on Sept. 17, 2010, loss around 60lbs, with only one fill. For some reason, I have stopped losing weight. Is this normal?
