5 Day Pouch Test - Anyone tried this?
One of the members of my support group was talking about doing the five day pouch test last night. I had to leave when it was over, so I couldn't ask more questions of her. (Had to get the kids.)

Does anyone have some good high protein / low carb recipes?
Good morning! I am in need of some great high protein / low carb recipes. Can anyone help? An idea for you all -- I take leftover grilled chicken breast, chunk it up into small pieces, sprinkle some shredded cheese on it and microwave it for 60 - 90 seconds. Yummy!

Just Joined the Group

I really don't know exactly what I need in all the other sections, so my main purpose is for tracking protein and my intake. I think this will not only be helpful now, but later down the line. I had my…
