Dr Dukan diet

Thanks

I found a fat free vanilla in Marks and Spencer and I was going to have it with my oats this morning but I couldn't face the oats so I had scrambled egg and smoked salmon, absolutely delicious

I may be able to have a go at making the galettes when I get home tonight, otherwise I may just have porridge and yoghurt (if I don't have time) in order to get the oatbran down

Try adding vanilla essence before cooking and sprinkle with splenda when cooked. I add vanilla essence, cinnamon and splenda to the galette before cooking, it makes it sweet and more edible

Hi I started Attack yesterday, dropped 2 and a half pounds ovenight, have a stone to lose, so that's an encouraging start.

I notice a few of you recommend Onken FF Vanilla yog and also there's a strawberry one. Drooling at the prospect, I hot-footed it to Sainsbury's last night, however I notice it does contain some sugar (in addition to the natural milk sugars) and also added starch. I think it was tapioca, trying to read the labels without my glasses.

I left it and went back to my Tesco 0% Greek natural yog which is yummy. Do you get away with using small amounts of the Onken without affecting losses?

Thanks

Well done Bronnie
I'm on day 4 and have a bit of a rough taste in my mouth
I am not sure how long I should be on attack, I originally planned 4 days but when I looked at the DR D website and put in my details it said 8 days of attack:eek:
I think I may just do tomorrow which will be a total of 5 days and then do a PV day on Saturday as I have a friends firework party in the evening and she is not likely to have much PP there. I could get away with some meat or fish (or take my own) and salad.
My body is telling me I need a glass of champagne - probably to clear my palate. Anyway, I haven't got any and can't afford any so highly unlikely to happen!

10lbs down since the 30th of October.

Not bored of steak, mince and chicken yet, thankfully.

I'm no expert mrs mum but the taste in your mouth may be as your body is in ketosis . I'm just taking this from the info on dukan diet site . I read that it's normal and means diet is working . Please check up for yourself about this on the site.

I have been on the Dukan diet for 5 and a half weeks now and have lost 14lbs! Very pleased with this as I am in hotels 3 nights a week and it can be very hard indeed to find anything to eat! Good ones do the salmon and scrambled eggs for breakfast, otherwise it is poached eggs for me. I try and take a chicken breast for lunch on my first day away after that it is tricky and usually have to have a slice of ham (taken from breakfast) wrapped in a serviette! Luckily most places will do me a steak and green salad for evening meal but last night (Birmingham) was a disaster. Told the waitress I was on a strict diet and asked for a small steak and salad - no dressings or sauces - got a plain salad and a steak with a huge pat of butter on top - doh! Won't be booking in there again.
My next weigh in is Sunday and hope to have lost another 1lb or if lucky 2lb. Started with a target to lose of 21lb so well on the way now and should get there well before my Xmas holiday on 23rd December.

Just to tell anyone looking for oatbran that it has shot up in price in Tesco- think it is now £1.99 & was £1.49.
However found some in Holland & Barrett @ £1.29 yesterday. There are different grades in there too- fine, medium etc, plus wheatbran. H & B have launched a loyalty card- activate it and they give you £1.50 in vouchers in the next mailing. Can't be bad.

I am still baking the oatbran muffins. I am going to try to find that natural sweetener Stevia, but suspect it will be expensive!

Have almost lost 2 stone since mid June.
Had a wonderful cruise, learned to dance (ballroom) danced lots every day and despite yummy cruise food came home lighter! All that dancing

Been going 11 months now and I am pleased to report that I am 2lb shy of losing 4 stone.:beer:

Lets see what a few weeks walking a Xmas post round can do for me.:eek:
