    Tonsillitis

    Oooohhh noooooo!!!!! Lol. I hate ice cubes. I can't even have them in drinks when it's really hot. I am drinking plenty, just not plain water. I can't understand why it is so difficult to swallow when I can manage fizzy drinks. I guess I'm just plain weird. Lol xxx Sent from my iPhone...

    Tonsillitis

    I'm not eating much. Mainly because I'm not hungry. I had a bowl of chicken soup, Heinz, not Dukan friendly but it's all I had all day yesterday. I can't seem to drink water, it's really painful to swallow it, I'm managing to drink plenty of coffee and diet coke tho. I was almost tempted by...

    My date last night went very well. All things considered. We went to the Harvester. He was very understanding that not only am I on a diet but not very well. We ordered a platter between us and I just picked at some chicken and had some salad. The only 'naughty' thing I ate was a couple of the...

    Thank you. I'm gonna take a slow walk to the shop later and see what soups they have. I'm still gonna avoid as many carbs as possible so that getting back into it isn't as hard. I did weigh myself this morning and saw a huge drop in my weight but I'm not going to celebrate yet as I have a...

    I am off work for a few days with a severe case of tonsillitis. The doctor has prescribed me penicillin and said lots of fluids and soft food. I don't have the energy to prepare my own soups etc ......... Are there any off the shelf brands that are Dukan friendly??? Today I'm on a PP day...
