I've put my little blip down to a lack if exercise and I seem to be back on track now. I'm definitely going to have to get more creative with my menus though ad I'm starting to get a little bored! B low fat bacon medallions and fried egg( no oil) S sf jelly L chicken drumsticks S boiled egg D...

Hi CIWTI. I've had another two come off now so I'm very relieved, as it's early days you just want to see it moving!!!! I think it may have been down to excercise for me as they were the only two days that I hadn't been able to get out. So I'm making a bigger effort now. I hope you get a shift...

Right, panic over, 1lb off. Now I'm just going to try and chill and get on with it!!!! Thanks for all your advice, I'm still trying to find my way so not sure what to expect :o) Karen x

I'm never sure how much I should be eating!!! I've already eaten more protein today than usual so I'll see how it goes. I'm also going to make sure I get my exercise. In case you hadn't noticed I'm not the most patient person lol!!! Thanks Karen x

Great, I like your positive attitude and I'm hoping to be able to copy you as I hit my first hurdle lol! I'd better warn dh he's going to be needed for cuddles!!! K x

Thanks this is day 9. I'll try and up the protein a bit! K x

I'm glad your feeling better now! Remember to take lids of water as I still get the headaches if I don't. Karen x

Hmmmm, bit disapointed as I've stalled the last 2 days. I'm going to try and work through it and not lose faith as this plan is so easy. I love the fact that I don't feel hungry and I'm not tempted to binge on all the foods I used to. So it's almost worth it just for that!!! Karen x

Hi all, I've been doing great but the scales haven't moved the last 2 mornings. Totm is over and I've been a very good girl! I know I'm still in ketosis because I checked with the sticks. I was wondering if it might be smoked mackerel fillets as I've had them for lunch both days? It's the...

Wow, that is fabulous!!

8lbs is great, and it's the start of many many more to come. Karen x

Hmmm, better watch the chilli flakes. I think they took a day longer to work and then Boom!!!! Nuff said! Had a headache mist if yesterday so I think I need to keep an eye on my water. I'm very good at drinking it at work but maybe a bit lazier at the weekend. Today's menu will look like this...

Lol Sona, that sounds like a compromise! Although i've never had Atkins chocolate it doesn't sound very appealing!!!!! My wee boy will be 3 in June. We have a hard time getting him to eat anything. It's weird trying to encourage him to eat with us and then we are having something completely...

Hi ppk, I think everyones experience is different I'm afraid. My totm just arrived while on attack and I found that I didn't lose for a day but I've started again so it wasn't too bad. The important thing to remember is that it's only temporary. Karen x

I think I'll wait a little while for the muffins then, just in case! Wooohooo,another lb has hit the dust and I'm now 7lb down, amazing! I started cruise yesterday but made sure I didn't overdo the veggies. I'll be doing a 2/2/1/2 pattern so that I can have pv the weekend and a Wednesday when...

Thanks for that Laura.I was going to ask about the wheat bran as I couldn't see it in the book and I'm desperate to try those toffee muffins!

Lol, spoke too soon,the chilli flakes did work! Sorry for all the tmi,it's really not something to get excited about!!!

Hi Sona, Just had a wee look at your stats, your doing great and an inspiration to me as my start bmi us about the same as yours. I have a toddler too so I'm well aware if the temptations of parties and mums and tods groups etc. Well done for resisting!DS would have dived into the cheesy puffs...

Yes, I'm looking forward to the veggies but just worried I might overdo it a bit. Although the chilli flakes haven't worked (usually goes straight through me lol) so a few veggies are definitely a good idea! I'm delighted to have lost 6lbs though, I've never had results like that before so I'm...

Yay! Thanks for the advice Jacys, the app is obviously rubbish!!

I've just tried using the browser instead, if this posts you know it's worked lol!

Good luck! I've just finished the attack stage and it was great.I wasn't tempted to stray at all and I'm looking forward to cruise. Karen x

Hi Laura, I'm enjoying the strictness of this too.I've just finished 5 days of attack and could easily do a couple more! Good luck Karen x

I'm using the app for both. It's soooooo annoying!

after going great guns with attack and losing 5.5lbs in 3 days i ground to a halt today.I'm fairly sure it's down to TOTM which is due any minute! (but I'm not exactly clockwork so it's not an exact science!) I have major sweet cravings so thats another big sign for me. It would have been...

I wondered if anyone can help me with this. I am surgically attatched to my iphone/ipad but have been unable to post messages or make replies. It was all fine when I signed up on Tuesday but all I can do now is log on, read stuff and update my profile.It does the same on another site I use. Any...

Hi Ciwti, Yip, hopefully we can gee each other on. It will be interesting to see whats a week in front of me!! Finding it all fine so far and looking forward to pv. Hubby is following it too(more or less!) so it's good to have the support at home too, Karenx

Thanks for the replies, i,ve been having some technical difficulties so haven't been able to get back on grrrrr!! Things are going well. I've been staring at the scales in disbelief after losing 4lbs in 2 days! It's a great incentive to keep going. Todays menu has been, b cinammon galette...

Will do! Any advice will be appreciated. Just a wee query, does anyone know how long boiled eggs will keep in the fridge? Not that they will stay there long lol! Karen x

Day one of attack! B. Smoked salmon omelette S. Vanilla mullerlight L. Mackerel fillets and boiled egg S. Cottage cheese D. Roast chicken oat bran gallette Just starting to feel hungry so there may be more! Also drinking loads of water. Tomorrow I intend to have B gallette S...

Hi Cassy, I just started attack today too. I have around four stone to lose.i found the gallette not too bad but I'm going to get a better non stick pan so I can make them really thin and usecthem as wraps. Good luck! Karen x

Hi all, Thought I'd jump in and say hello after snooping for a little while. I,ve been struggling to find motivation for a long time and was recently diagnosed with depression. The tablets have kicked in and I'm raring to go now and want to lose some pounds fast! I've read the book and...

Hi all, Thought I'd finally join you after snooping for a few days! I started attack today. According to the Dukan site I need to do 5 days. I'll try and get the diaries tec sorted but usually I'm a bit naff with computers. I think I've been ok today. B omelete with smoked salmon S vanilla...
