5 day pouch test



Recommended Posts

I'm really interested in doing the 5 day pouch test and I've looked it up but all I seem to be able to find is a book I have to purchase. Do I just do liquid for 2 days, mushy for 2 and then solid or is it different? I'm lost!!!

I <3 the 5 day pouch test!

Every time I do it I lose weight. It is a great way to get rid of your bad eating, sugar cravings and gets you to do better portion sizes.

The first 2 days is liquids, then soft Protein then firm Protein then regular protein. If you look under the plan there are the days and under the days there are a few recipes you can try.

I have never bought the book as I am sure they wouldn't ship to korea and it probably isn't worth the expensive shipping costs either.

I just finished the 5 day pouch test and lost 3.5 lbs! The weight came off on day 2 but it stayed off until today. I had a few slip ups but what was really nice is that I could actually feel my band working again. During 2 meals I had solid and firm Protein, ribs and eggs, respectively, and the band stopped me from finishing both! I'm so glad this worked.

I forgot to tell you guys that it didn't break my sugar cravings. I just decided to have sugar free ice pops and put purvia in my Protein fruit smoothies to give me that sweet taste instead of real sugar.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
