Hi Guys, I know this has probably been covered all ready but am having major stomach problems this week! I have been bloated all week and this doesn't seem to be going away. :( I have upped my water intake and oatbran and still no change but I am still losing as lost 1 and a half pounds this...

I'm glad it's not just me then, it will be quite frustrating if the scales go back up though :/ Its a relief because I thought I was doing something wrong when the weight wasn't shifting. Literally can't wait now to reach the one stone mark, just half a pound to go :) and...... Then another 3...

Lol thanks guys, obviously I am mega happy just baffled by it all. Ha ha lets just hope it doesn't creep back on next week! Thanks again, thought something might be wrong with losing so much in one week but sounds good to me :) x

Hello again everyone (apologises if you are getting sick of me by now :/) So just wanted to check if this is normal? I near the ends of week 3 in cruise phase I am only half a pound of a 1 stone loss which is excellent and its taken the same amount of time when I did dukan last time. However...

Hi guys, I'm really missing my tomato ketchup so I have come across some on eBay that says ok to have on dukan diet. It's sugar free and below is the description. Can anyone clarify if this would be ok to have? Nutritional information 30 ml of the product: Energy 16 kcal Protein: 0.6 g...

Oh dear. :( I won't be having them again then. Luckily they dish effect my losses yesterday but we shall see tomorrow or through the week as it may take a few days to catch up. Lets just hope they haven't done too much damage x

Hi again guys Sorry for all of the posts recently but want to make sure I'm doing everything right. I did my weekly shop yesterday and noticed tesco have started to sell rice noodles £1 for a fairly big bag. Anyway to the point lol..... Are we allowed to eat these? I thought I had read...

Good afternoon people :) Does any one have any voucher or discount codes for the dukan shop they could share free delivery anything like that? I'm going to buy some of the choc chip biscuits and some other bits but they are rather on the expensive side lol Many thanks

Brilliant :) Thanks guys this has really cheered me up. Done 20 mins on the bike today so hopefully will give me a bit of a boost! :) I'm not sure why I'm not losing as fast as last time I did dukan diet maybe my body is struggling this time around. Iv been sticking to it very strictly so I...

Now I know that dukan says you MUST do the minimum 20 minutes walking per day to boost the diet and ensure you have weekly losses however my mum has just bought me a magnetic exercise bike and I just wondered if 20-30 mins on the bike would suffice instead of the walk. I have no problem with...

A very good motivating post! :) I have just under 4 stone to lose and I am struggling this time around I Must admit. However I did dukan for two months last year and lost 2 stone and I never felt as good. I was even buying clothes getting them home and they were actually too big!! It's a...

Hi, Has anyone tired these? Did it have any affect on loss? They look acceptable to me and Iv had them twice now with no effect on my weight loss Just wondered if anyone else had tried them? X

Hi guys, Just to update, been to the doctors today and he confirmed its nothing at all to do with the diet and that I have actually got labrynthitus which is an imbalance in my inner ear causing dizzy speaks and loss of balance. Have been prescribed tablets for 3 weeks and have to go back and...

I have read mixed reviews with some people experiencing dizzy spells and others saying none. I have been drinking 2 litres minimum per day plus green tea, tea and diet coke. I have stuck to the diet strictly. Woke up this morning feeling exactly the same so hopefully doctor will giver advice...

Thanks for your replies guys. I also read could be an effect of losing weight too quickly but didn't feel like this last time and I lost 2 stone in 2 months last year when I did dukan. Ill see what the doctor says tomorrow just to be on the safe side but fingers crossed its jist a bad day and I...

Hello lovely people, This may sound daft but today I haven't eaten anything since lunch and it's looking like I'm not gonna get time tonight for any food. :( I'm not actually hungry and have been drinking water. Iv read Somewhere that not eating on dukan diet can actually make your weight...

Thanks guys, I have a friend who did really well on dukan and always used oxo cubes in cooking but I am still in two minds now as some people saying yes and others saying no. Obviously the salt is a concern but I do have the reduced salt ones. I am half tempted to give it a try and see what if...

Hi guys, Ok this had probably been asked a million times but I can't find anything in the forums. Are we allowed oxo cubes? I'm in cruise phase and today is a pv day so would I be allowed To crumble one in the pan when cooking? I'm reallllllllllyyyyy missing gravy! :( x hope we can have...

Thanks for the ideas guys, I think I may need to attempt the dukan bread and have that with meat as I like very little other food that we are allowed, I don't like seafood, I don't like cottage cheese or mushrooms or peppers or onions. I dont like tomatoes any sort of cheese and i struggle to...

Lol that is a good way to look at it! Ha ha thanks x
