I'm not familiar with the capabilities of WFP5, but if you could figure out at what times you had worked on that project, could you delete the entries from the TM using a date/time search?
Alternatively (and again I'm not sure what WFP5 is capable of), replace all target texts in the project with e.g. "XXX", and then update the TM, and then delete all units that has "XXX" as the target text. This method assumes that the TM does not contain duplicates and that updating the TM with segments containing "XXX" will overwrite all identical units in the TM. Changing all target texts to "XXX" could be done via DOC export (Bilingual Review) (if WFP5 has such a feature).
