March 2nd, 2009

Ok. So I have decided that I will be going back-to-basics. I am doing the 5DPT (Five Day Pouch Test).... but longer than 5 days, lol. I have heard that the 5DPT helps to bring you back to the 'pouch rules' and helps you to get that 'tight' feeling back in your pouch. Oh, that would be so fab! I can pretty much eat anything. Pasta and rice can still make me sick if I eat a lot of it, but that's it.

So, I am going to follow the post-op rules for as long as I can. Clear liquids for a few days (and all of my supplements), water, water, water... and some broth and s/f jello. In a few days I will add the protein shakes. Protein first! I cannot believe I forgot the rules! I just kind of went through life (well, the last few years) ignoring that I had this surgery!

I am on day 2 of liquids and I feel great. I feel empowered and motivated. Just like a fresh post-op bypass patient.
