B1 – 1/3 C. sloppy joe meat

B2 – 1/3 C. sloppy joe meat

L – 5 morning star farms vegetarian buffalo wings (surprisingly not bad). 2 cucumber spears. Lite ranch dressing.

S – 1oz almonds, 7 small high Fiber crackers

D – will be a small hamburger patty w/ cheese and Condiments – no bun. Maybe a slice or two of Tomato as well.

Today was supposed to be day 4 of the pouch diet, but at lunchtime I was sick of meat so I had the veggie wings and cucumber. It was similar density and calorie content to the day 4 recommended foods, but slightly higher in carbs. The almonds and crackers were definitely not on the plan. Even though I strayed a little I can definitely tell that I fill up faster. The early stages of the diet must shrink the pouch a little. Maybe I’ll try a couple of days of liquids every month or so. I have an appointment next week for a follow-up and fill if needed. No fill for me! I still like to get the follow-up visits even if I don’t need a fill because they keep my honest. When I know I’ll have to get on a scale in front of others I’m going to make darn sure it says less than it did the last time I stepped on it!

punkster - i follow the back of the bags directions as far as soaking & such but i add more to it to give it "bulk". i'll use what ever fresh veggies i have on hand, can of rotelle, chicken stock, and a cup of brown rice.

this past time the veggies i used: onion/garlic/zuchinni/squash/carrots

i keep my 2c measuring cup of chicken stock full and add as the Beans can absorb faster than the veggies & rice do.

you can play around w/these as they are very versitile.

i usually just use onions, carrots, and celery but the squash sounds delicious. thanks.

on full liquids - so pudding and popsicles... lots of Water.

Skipped day 5 of the 5-day pouch diet. The 5th day is white meat chicken and steak, both of which I cannot eat at all. I can’t eat nearly as much as I could before going on the pouch diet, so it must shrink the pouch. I feel like I just got a fill. I think days 1-3 are the key.

B – 1/3 c. taco meat, 1tbs. Guacamole, 1tbs. Salsa, 1tbs cheese

L – ½ c. cobb salad

S – 2 bites of Lite and Fit watermelon yogurt (Threw the rest away..gross! The cantaloupe flavor is good.)

D – Most of a grilled chicken thigh, 3 bites coleslaw, 2 bites mashed potatoes
