5 Day Pouch Test

Can someone explain what to do each day? Not having any luck in google. I know the first day is liquids. Does that mean protein shakes? I want to try doing it! Thanks for any help!

I need your advice! I'm on day 1 and the plan says I can have cream soups. Would tomato soup made with milk be a cream soup? I have some cream of chicken but would still rather have tomato. Thanks!!
