Hi I just tried make hollandaise sauce to go with my salmon and asparagus, the recipe from dukan recipe book. But it was just like foam after I had folded in whisked egg White. Any tips? Also tried baking mushrooms filled with quark, garlic and herbs and drizzles with balsamic vinegar but...

Thanks people. Still going strong. End of first week tonight :) and a lovely PV day tomorrow yey! Just made my first galette and loved it. Put cinammon in and was really carby tasting :) Think I will have salmon and asparagus with hollandaise sauce for dinner tomorrow yum x

Mmm frozen yoghurt. Hadn't thought of that :) Don't feel piggy today as PP day. Think I may find myself living for PV days lol I know it's better if it comes off slowly. Or off at all lol It is the end of my first week tonight. Official weigh in tomorrow morning :) x

I'm now in cruise and have lost 7.5lb since I started. with a PV day today It has been awesome but I'm a bit scared I won't lose very much weight. Losing it fast motivates me so much but slow losses make me want to give up How are all you cruisers doing? What is your average loss per week...

Yeah it's great to be motivated! :) Came home from work today and worked up a sweat with 1.5 hrs of tidying up lol multi tasking. Exercise and clean house I've never tried zumba but let me know what it's like if you go! I'm planning on getting out more with the family at weekends, being...

Thanks people. Can anyone answer my above post? X

Yum :) what cocoa powder did you use? x

Just been on a 1.5 trek to the local nature reserve. Through forests and climbing up steep banks. The husband was laughing as I was like a beetroot when I came out! lol but feel good for it :) I have done less and less exercise over the years til the point where I've done nothing for months...

Well done girls :) Emms, that's fantastic! I know you say it's a lot to do with being poorly but it's nice to see scales go down. Hope you get well soon and get back to eating properly again I've done attack for 4 days and lost 7lb :D Wish it could carry on at that rate lol Hope I lose at...

Thanks :) ive just done a shop online and really planned it out. Looking forward to cruise meals. I've stocked up on herbs and spices too to make my meals tastier. Before I would get all that from a jar lol I've lost 7lb in 4 days! :) X

Hadn't even noticed that option at the top! Lol was only reading from daily menus down Thanks! Will have a good look round. Ordered lots of shopping with herbs and spices and will try a chicken curry I think :) yum. So excited to start cruise and eat more normal stuff :) x

It's confusing when you see a fat free strawberry yoghurt and think you can have it but it has sugar in lol will stick to the natural fat free one. Which flavouring is ok? I think I'm to steer away from ones with alcohol and oil in? Is this one ok? Cookies Detecting! I will steer clear of...

I would love for you to post more normal to dukan recipes here :) found this one a real help. Do have the dukan recipe but half the stuff in there, I wouldn't normally eat. Be great to stick to more standard meals that whole family can eat x

Hello I am only on day 4 of attack but no more aches than usual lol Bit tired and lethargic though x

Can you please post me ideas of any foods here not listed in the book but allowable in attack Don't want to be missing out on other foods I could have :) Notice people eating turkey rashers? Am I allowed soy sauce and balsamic vinegar? And can I use any granulated sweetener? Or only...

Thanks guys :) hope I can achieve what you have! I've lost 5lb in 2 days! I'm over the moon. And haven't been hungry once. Resisted all matter of sweets, chocolate and Friday takeaways at work today :) Husband working most of this weekend so that makes things easier as won't want to go...

Ps. Have you really lost cravings? That's what I was hoping for by cutting all junk from my diet x

Thanks for your replies :) feeling better today than yesterday. Had an earlier night than usual so not as worn out. I've lost 2.5lb in one day! Water probably. Not feeling as bloated. I was going by the book fir the 7 days-says when target to lose is over 40 pounds, attack may last 7 days or...

Thanks :) I weigh 11st 7lb and wanna be 8st 7lb So 45lb to lose I was thinking 7-10 days if I could do it Just feeling pretty depressed I guess :( Sick of my weight going up and down (put 16lb on in about 5 weeks) and sick of dieting Wanna be normal. But I don't seem to have any middle...

I'm on day 1 of attack and don't think I'm gonna be able to do it. I've tried various diets in the past and keep quitting and eating like a pig. Been reading the book and went shopping last night. Spent a fortune! Wasn't very prepared today and had a manic day at work Ate yoghurt with oat...

Thanks :) just found the search function for the sites and total yoghurt seems popular. Will try it :) X

Do you have any 'acceptable' brand named hams or yoghurts that I can start off with and use as a base of comparison? X

Thanks for the reply! I'm not sure what cured means either. Book just says deli hams and cured hams not allowed. Nor is smoked ham so I'm at a complete loss :) Yeah both are fat free but was unsure of the flavoured one as scared of sugary sounding ingredients. Good to know I can have some...

Hello I'm starting attack tomorrow. Bit nervous lol I'm really stuck on what ham is ok? Done a shop tonight and read packets of ham for ages. I'm sure the book says no cured ham but it all was cured?? Also which tightest are ok? I got onken Greek natural yoghurt and a yeo valley vanilla...
