Just came on to say I have finally found a butcher here in France to mince turkey for me. Going to try your 'koftas' tomorrow. Must look up this eat, fast and live longer on youtube. Didn't know about it, would certainly have looked at it on TV. Is is still on or do I have to look for...

Just catching up Chris. Glad to see your are on the mend, back and Dukan wise. Are you doing every second day PP & PV? What day do you do your pure PP on? Always looking for other peoples ideas and advise, and you are the 'dukan expert' after shedding 4 stone so well. Keep well and enjoy...

Hi Chris, are you doing every second day PP/PV? Do you mind me asking why? Have a few lbs crept up on you? Fingers crossed....

I would'nt even know where to look for protien products if I wanted them. Dr. D says they are handy on PP days if you are on the go. Where do you get them? What are the product names (I pressume there are different ones), can you get them in supermarkets or is it health food shops? It would...

Birmingham in October on a Saturday could be do-able from 'here', love the shops there too. Could ye possible fix on a date and I can see if I can get a cheap flight and accommodation.... Yepeeeee....

Hi there Dukan.dieter, congrats on your weight loss.... nearly 4 stone by my calculations. You have done really well, lost 1/3 of your body weight. I have just finished conso. and managed to loose a few more lbs, but I think of them as my 'carefree' lbs.... I started making my own brown...

I just wrote a long, heartfelt encouraging reply to your thread and my lap-top blinked and I lost it.... Too bad, as I cant remember the words but the 'gist' of it is your are great and I will keep looking-in to see how you are going. You've started, so now you can finish.

Well done Lovelyzobo, it is great to beat the next stone barrier. I see you had a gastric bypass 6 years ago, everything went well I presume? My sister-in-law had it done 18 months ago in US. Havn't seen her since but she has lost serious weight. Great group of people on this site and...

I am still on 'holiday' but trying to catch up in between visitors. Getting great tips with my 'catch up'...

I love it too, keep up the good work. Must start weighing my carbs.... 200g per carb meal I believe!

You bet Sarafvrm, anything is possible when we put our minds to it... Look how far you've come since starting.

Thanks Joodle, you're not doing too bad yourself....

Hi there Dukan-dieter, I continued to loose weight also on the 3rd stage but only a few lbs. To be honest I am delighted as these are the few lbs I allow myself to fluctuate up and down. I can't see your stats so I don't know what your current weight is in relation to your height. My OH...

Just came across your thread, Joodle, and congrats on reaching your TW ahead of time. I am very interested in your next step as both myself and my OH reached our TW's ahead of plan but kept going until the 'date'. I lost 6lbs more and my OH lost 18lbs more. We are delighted we kept going...

Anyone out there know whether it's better to 'weigh in' on Friday or Monday??? Is there any psychological advantage to either? On stabilisation now and with my PP Thursday I was thinking a weigh-in on Friday might look better on the scales??

Great news with the weight loss Pauline. You are back on track (maybe a little sad) but back to weight loss up to week 11. Half way there, so in 16 weeks you should be near celebrating....

Thanks for all your kind comments. I have always been of the opinion that 'a little of what you like is good for you' though it's hard to limit yourself. I am still of the same opinion but know better how to limit myself. I brought a Toblerone with me from Ireland and have still to open it...

Hope you had a great day out with your friend. I had my friend over to France last week and we had a ball, I really miss her. Congrats on your weight loss and getting back on the 'saddle', love those quotes too, especially the one about it being 'worth it;

Glad to see you enjoyed Dublin. Congrats on your lotto win and on loosing the 'bulk' of your 'holiday gain'. Its great that you can have the odd blow out and rectify it very quickly. It's not as if you pile on stones with just a little treat.

Love the beaded horse-shoe, very talented lady. As for the microwave oven, if you only use it for heating, you will probably get one cheaper than £50. I've seen them in Tesco (Ireland) for very little. Just get one with 'knobs' and not 'digital'... too much to go wrong with the digital ones.

I just had to take a break out of this scorching sunshine, so instead of checking Facebook I am going to update my 'experience'. Came over to France with my granddaughter on June 24 and have been reasonably good. I have had wine, cheese, baguettes, meals out, biscuits, nibbles, ice-cream and...

Two lovely looking children Chris, hope your day went well and everyone is rested after it.

Very sorry to hear your news Pauline, it was thinking of you that made me turn on my computer and have a look at what ye all are getting up to. You seem like a very strong person and practical too so I hope you can see the logic of these upsets and use it to come to terms with the loss. Little...

Have been away from this for the past few weeks. Have a lot of catching up to do with all your posts, but it looks like everyone is still hanging in there and 'loving the Dukan' and its success. Have a wonderful day at the graduation and you will feel fab and on top of the world (and of...

Great news on your 2.5lbs loss. It's all downwards.... thats the objective. And the 'spirits' rise

Glad to say I have gotten my sister and mother following Dr. Dukan also. They are just amazed at the transformation in my OH (he has lost 2.5 stone)... he hasn't been this size since a young teenager. Havn't seen him for almost 3 weeks as he went to France while I stayed to 'babysit' my...

If you make your gravy from the natural juices of the meat with all the fat removed you can use a teasp of 'corn starch aka cornflour) a tolerated item to thicken it. I do it all the time especially with a roast chicken and its delish and keeps the meat lovely and moist especially the breast.

Sorry for the confusion, just read over my post and I did put 32c down. Was doing it from iPhone in bed so a bit fiddly. I'm sure he will love them, in fact I know he will.... :innocent0002:

I was a 36C and to go down a size you go up a cup???? So down to 34D, which was still too big around the back. Then down to a 32DD which fit perfectly. There was another one I liked and they didn't have it in a DD so the G is the next up and there wasn't really any difference.... It is a...

Smaller me though, boobs stay the same... Thats 4 inches off my 'torso' and everything else too... Dropped from a 12/14 to an 8/10 amazing or what...

Delighted with myself, 1lb down this week. I can't believe it really. Thought it would all settle down with the re-introduction of veg every day except PP day and having my own wholemeal soda bread every day too. Anyway, the confession about my 'tweeking' of Dr. Dukan's allowed foods...

Another lb down, I expected it to stop at this stage! Must be doing something 'right'? Will be in France this day next week for 3 months so I expect it to STS or go up a few!!! I don't mind as I have a few to 'play' with. OH gets to his True Weight Date in 2 weeks so we will both be on...

Welcome to Dukan and congrats on your five previous weeks. There is no reason for things to get much harder if you stick to the rules. It's all 'black n white, regarding what's allowed and not. I tend to do a little 'grey' but it's healthy grey and I am still loosing even 3 weeks into...

As the old saying goes... what the eyes don't see the heart won't feel... But your eyes won't be lying when you do your weekly weigh in.

Fingers crossed they fit you in as early as possible and those antibiotics start to kick in and get rid of the infection. Hope the swelling goes down quickly too...

I am inclined to agree with Pauline re. a holiday.... Failing that I have found a product in health shops that is very good. It's a 'tea tree' gel stick. Antibacterial and cleansing. Sudocrem is very good too, pity it's so white!!! Put it on the spots going to bed.

My local 'Beauty Rooms' started to stock 'lingerie' so I ordered two bras in my usual size 32c. They rang me to say they had arrived and I went to collect. The assistant wanted me to try on first so I obliged!!! As you would!!!! they were too big... after trying various sizes I ended up...

Welcome to Dukan and let us know how tour muffins turn out. I could never get them to even resemble something that a person would enjoy eating.

Can't find any minced turkey in this part of the world at all but am off to France next Sunday for the summer and seem to remember that it is readily available over there in the supermarket. Cant wait to try them. Have filed recipe away. Thanks.

Congratulations Pauline and Mr.P, I loved the card. It said it all for Fathers day. I know where you are coming from with the bread, bought a loaf of white sliced yesterday and had to put it straight in the freezer in case I weakened... I inhaled the wonderful aroma for a few mins first...

Congrats on your choice of 'diet'... It's the best. Two PV's at weekend is perfect and two PP days to follow, and no hassle from the OH. You will be cruising and loosing without him knowing... They just like to be in control, but we know who really is!!!!

I read somewhere a few years ago that most of the low fat stuff especially WW biscuits have extra sugar to compensate for the taste. Stands to reason that some of the dairy stuff would be the same. Need to check labels...

Great to see ye doing so well on The Dukan, miss_c and Madison. You will be so into it in a few weeks that you will wonder where it has been all your life! Keep up the good work and enthusiasm.

Hope you feel better soon. I have been plagued with tooth absess' all my life so I know what you are going through. Such pain. Enjoy the rest while daughter is away, there will be plenty of washing when she gets home. Congrats on your STS.

Agree with Sididd there, get better soon.

Congrats, that is a great loss for your first week. You are bang on track to be 'a looser'.... what we all strive for.

First of all I would like to thank you all for the support and information I received since I started on this 'journey' on April 16th, 2012. Special thanks to ChrisR, CaledoniaDreaming, Paulinegin, CPL, Jojo25, ellie1969 and a lot more too. Ye have been great to encourage and its been good to...

Thanks Paulinegin. I've been following you too and you are a great support to everyone and have a great sence of humour. It's good to know all this support is out there, only a finger away.

I am very rude as I never introduced myself to Dukan as this thread suggests. I just dived on in and posted. Reading ChrisR's diary was the start of something I found out about in France over easter, and her determination gave us (my OH and I) the 'gizz' to follow and 'loose'.... I pop in...

Lost 3lbs here, on conso since first day on holiday, (26/05/12). Came back having put on 1lb and am still loosing.... :talk017: Think I might start a 'little diary' myself of how I've found the 'regime'.... My OH is 7lbs under his TW and still has 4 weeks to go to his TW Date, and he is...

Thats great Paulinegin, bet you are really pleased with that :553:

Have just been reading your posts over the past week or so and CD I think you have amazing willpower. Such a busy lady with a quiet large young family and you just keep going and going.... I hope you see a 'downward' trend on the scales next weigh-in. I reached my TW a few weeks ahead of...

Was at this weight two or three times in my life and hope to stick to it for the future. I used to be 8.5 stone before kids came along, didn't gain too much on first two but went to 10 stone on third and constantly hovered between 10 & 10.5 for years, sometimes creeping to almost 11st...

Welcome to Dukan Becky and as mentioned already this is a great regime for weight loss. The support is fantastic and everyone will be behind you 100% and you will be transformed by Christmas 2012. Believe it.

OMG.... You look like the daughter of the lady whose photo was taken last year!!! Operation Dukan Transformation.... Love the dress and accessories, bet you were delighted you 'pushed the boat out' and didn't hide yourself in linen trousers and a floaty top!!! Those flowers are amazing...

You are to be admired. 1lb down is great after your week away. I'm afraid my week away in Crete resulted in me putting on 1lb, but it will be gone this week hopefully. Stayed away from carbs but did enjoy a glass or two of the vino each evening, so not too bad a result I think. Off to...

Don't think so, but if you drink plenty of water you shouldn't 'stall' for too long.

As far as taste goes, I would go for Laughing Cow or lite Philly over Quark any day... Thought the stuff was 'vile'!!! If the small triangles are tolerated then good luck. Apologies to all you Quark lovers... never heard of the stuff till I found Dukan.

Delighted everything went well and you felt good in your 'clothes' and your 'skin'. Have a great Summer when school finishes and get those legs etc out and get some sunshine.... That is if the sun shines in this part of the world this summer.

Fantastic ChrisR, I will be with you all the way. Found your last diary an inspiration and as I am now officially in Conso too I can do with the 'leadership'. Loving Crete too, how could you not?

Hi there Slim, Will be in France for the Summer and am wondering if it's easy to get the 'low fat' yoghurt and if there are lots of flavours? Don't like Quark or fromage fraise, and use LF rather than FF in the yoghurt as it tastes a lot better. Still lost the weight and ahead of...

Conso started for me also yesterday. In Crete though and had a bit of a 'blow out' last night!!! But have kept the walking and the water levels up. I have 60 days conso but as OH is in Cruise till mid July it will be easy to keep to everything. Then he goes on conso for about 150 days or...

Great to see you back ChrisR, and sorted for the Wedding. I know its hair, shoes etc missing, but that only window dressing.... Have a great time. Feeling a bit stupid going off to Crete in this weather, but I don't think its going to last here..... I know it will be gorgeous over there...

Cork, Ireland here. It was the Sunny South today here too!!!

Unfortunately no Morrison or Asda here, just Dunnes Stores, Tesco and SuperValu... but will keep checking, I think I have seen it sometimes. Wasn't interested in it at the time, so didn't pay too much attention. Great with your 13something.... Keep going and it will be 12something real...

Weighed in this morning.... 1.5lbs down. Delighted, TW date is next Saturday but will be in Crete (poor me) so am thrilled with the extra weight loss. OH down 4lbs this week which is fantastic for him, he has 7 weeks to go to his TW and has only 5lbs to loose. He is going to keep going...

Re: The Koftas.... finding it very hard to get minced turkey but will keep looking. Otherwise will have to mince my own!!! Hope not!!!!!

Hi Laura, Best of luck with your 'Dukan Journey', tried the muffins every which way you could imagine and could never take to them. That said, lots of the 'dukaneers' here swear by them so its a personal taste thing I think. I have survived without them or galettes (thought they were...

I think you are great Silver, and hope this Blitz does the trick. Your motivation is amazing, but you have come so far to give up now. What you have planned to do should bring the results you are looking for and will keep fingers and toes crossed for you. :scale:

Congrats. and well done on your 5 days attack. 9lbs is a great start to your programme. Do as the Dr. states and eat your veg and enjoy it on your PV days, you will loose weight and feel the better for it. Of course the more you loose the harder it is to shift, but it will shift and you...

I'm afraid you need to adapt the attitude that 'you dont need to eat or drink' to enjoy yourself. By this I mean, you could eat before you join your friends and just tell them that you're full or join them when they are ordering coffee, there will still be plenty of time at the restaurant etc...

Everyone is doing so well, congrats on the weight loss. This is a great eating plan to follow and really educates us as to what is 'good' to eat. Not too many from my neck of the woods so welcome to Flower83, I hope you succeed in your weight loss and this is a great forum with great support...

Well Jojo25, your boyfriend will be well and truly spoiled, as will you too. Fab. hotel and restaurant, I have been to both and you would find it hard to better either. Fantastic restaurant in the Hotel also, but it is nice to eat out of the place you are staying. Dublin city centre is'nt...

Hi Marinor, I've been on this regime for almost 5 weeks too, and would def. stay on the PP/PV for as long as possible, get as near to your desired weight as possible. Then, go on a PV regime and any time you can (besides your PP Thursday) go on PP days or even meals while nobody is looking...

You have mentioned Koftas quiet a bit and they sound yummy, must look for the recipe and try them. Great going with the weight loss.

Hi Jojo25, you are really spoiling your OH. Where in Dublin are you staying and eating, could give you some good tips. There are just some places that you should avoid. We go to Birmingham quiet a bit, lovely city for shopping. Usually stay city centre in the Burlington. Will...

Hi there all you slim 'dukaneers'... Saw a bag of spinach in Lidl this morning and bought it thinking I would try the 'eggs in tomato and spinach recipe'.... but cant find it? Any of you got it? Its PV today and I have a Beef and BNS stew for lunch... yum, yum and what for this...

Never heard of the Thermomix until last night when I read this thread. Looked it up today, what a fantastic invention... Sent off for details and hope to be the proud owner of one soon. For the ease of making risotto alone it would be worth it. Pity they don't come in colours to go with...

Welcome Flower83... You are from my side of the pond. Myself and my OH started with Dr. Dukan just over a month ago and we have both lost weight. I reached my TW two weeks ahead, and my OH started with 15st9lb and is now 14st7lb. He should get to his TW on first week of July and we...

So delighted with ye all, but most of all myself.... True weight today, 2 weeks ahead of time.... I am so chuffed... Smiling all day :)

That sounds like a very wise and tentative step for your first day of Conso ChrisR. As you say, enjoy every nibble of those Strawberries. I feel like Dora myself (only know about her as my 5 year old grandaughter has spent the last few years looking at her on the telly, she has now moved on...

I replied to your other thread ChrisR but I think this is the one you are forging ahead with? As I said in my other reply, you are elected to be the leader in my Dukan journey.... I think you are a great role model for all of us and so truthful and helpful for all of us to follow. Good Luck...

Keep going Milton, you deserve to achieve your goal and I think this eating plan is the best way to get there. As much as you like of what you like, so long as it is on the allowed list... What could be better?

This is the thread I am so looking forward following over the next few weeks and more.... Good luck girls, hope we all have a happy slimmer life...

Great work everybody. I agree with Paulinegin, ye are all 'loosers' and I hope to be one too tomorrow. Had a feed of Rhubarb over the last few days, so things are 'moving'.... so just hope the scales does too tomorrow for us.

I am so delighted for you ChrisR and will be with you through your next phase. You are a real role model to follow on this Dukan Journey and as I am going to be conso in two weeks and my OH in July, we will be with you all the way as our leader.... Don't think we could have a better one...

Great work Athens, and welcome to Ducan. It is a great programme and so easy to maintain. The rules are there, just stick to them and eat to your hearts content the foods that are allowed. Thanks CPL for the good wishes. Have been to Agios...... a few times. Lovely place, we stop off...

I go with a friend of mine, we have gone for the past 5 years to the same place. She has come through a lot of illness including Cancer, so I decided we should do this as we will not be around forever. She is in for a shock this year when I come with my 'oatbran etc..' I expect she will be...

I am so looking forward to this new 'conso' thread ChrisR as I will be following it to the letter in nearly 3 weeks, and in another country! I am making a list already to take with me in case I can't find what I need there. I think ye are great to have come this far, ye have my total admiration.

Sorry for getting back too late for your last pp meal. For my pp I usually (if 4 weeks can set a pattern) have Sirloin Steak or Salmon Steamed with two scallops or a few King Prawns, Roast Chicken with gravy or some nice fresh fish from the fishmonger (which I buy in bulk and freeze). I am...

Thought I'd make it 1lb but have to be thankful for 3/4lb down... At least its in the right direction.... Two weeks to go to loose 1 1/4lbs, am going to walk them off as I am off to Crete on 25th for a week. Will be packing oatbran, sweeteners, and a few yogurts. It was usually 1lb irish...

The only way I would made gravy is to roast your meat ( beef or chicken) while following the first two phases, keep the juices / de-glaze the roasting tin to get it all and add a teasp of cornflour to slightly thicken. Season to taste. Um Um Um.

Sorry to hear that Sammy. Good luck to you anyway, you seem to be determined to get the weight off. My niece lost 3.5 stone with SW. They don't have a centre near us or we would have tried it. She did it slowly, over 18 months but looks fantastic and has maintained it !!!!

Sorry to give my 'twopence' worth, but I think your days of 'floaty tops' should be over!!! I'm thinking of maybe a 'wraparound' type top... One piece but structured without being clingy.... You are now tall and slim, show it off? They usually come down around the hips. Once again sorry...

I'm back again... Thinking of you studying etc. have you tried 'low fat' or 'fat free' yoghurt with some sugar free jelly powder mixed in? Lots of flavours and tastes like 'Angels Delight', so if you like this it would be good to snack on, especially on a PP day. On a PV day why don't you...

Must try this recipe tomorrow, I took someone's advice on this site and bought some oatbran in Holland & Barrett today. Much finer than the 'Flahavans' I was previously using. Might even re-try making muffins!!!!

Still have fingers crossed for you ChrisR until your weigh in XX (on both hands too... Enjoy the weekend either way.

Thanks for that piece of info. I must confess to using a teasp when cooking anything on the pan!!! The thought of 'dry fry' made me cringe!!! Still lost the weight, so it is ok. Only a teasp(ish) though!!!

Well, thebestme, I am fairly strict but not 100%.... I don't eat anything 'full fat', but very few things 'fat free' have any flavour/taste so I look at the labels and take great care to see how much fat is there and make a personal judgement. (I only have myself to answer to... and my OH...

Congrats and best wishes. Sounds like you are more determined this time, and you know the pit-falls. What did the biscuits turn out like? Am trying to find a 'nice' way to consume the oat bran myself! Not tried biscuits though?

Just found this recipe as I searched what to do with celeriac and how to mash it.... Salmon with mustardy celeriac mash Will be trying it shortly as it looks great, will post how it tastes in the next few days..

Hello there 'Thebestme', I am finding this great, though would love a slice of toast with butter and marmalade. Started on a monday, did 2 days attack, lost 3lbs and by the following monday (weekly weigh in) I was down another 3lbs, so 6lbs the first week. 4lbs down this week...

OMG.... 4lbs down this week, I really cant believe it. And me eating porridge with the bran mixed in... a no, no,. Three and a half weeks to loose the last 2lbs. Will keep going till May 26th though, might loose more.....!!! OH down 3lbs and happy with it, but wishes it was more. I...

Has anyone tried different types of oatbran? Some might be coarser than others.... I use 'Flahavans' and I find it quite coarse... is it? Weighing in tomorrow, so fingers crossed....

Good Luck Sammy and Sarah, keep up the great work. You've started, so you can finish.... It will be really worth it on many levels. Keep us posted.

I have a slow cooker, but only use the rice cooker setting on it. How do you do a chicken in it.... could probably be used for lots of things that I havn't even thought of. Send me some ideas please... PP today and 2 weeks weigh in tomorrow, fingers crossed XXXX

Good luck with your decision to go another 2 weeks ChrisR. We are with you all the way. I am so waiting for you to go to phase 3 though, as I hope to be following you shortly!!! Am very interested in the foods you will be introducing that you have been depriving yourself of for so long...

Thats great Sarafvrm, Keep up the good work. Kimberleycandukan, Weigh yourself as often as you like is what I say. When you get the swing of it you might like to keep it weekly as you will loose it slower after the first few weeks. You hav'nt too much to loose, but you want to loose it and...

Thanks Sarafvrm and ChrisR, it is Flahavans Oat Bran I have so if any of ye have tried it you might be able to compare it with others. Might try the Holland & Barrett one the next day I am in the City. I am not a porridge lover either, but can take the bran mixed with it. And I need to get...

Thanks for replying Sididi, yes I am finding this site a great help. I agree, I think we have found a programme for life here... found out about it when we were in France for Easter from a French man we know. My OH was very impressed with him, so with a little encouragement from moi, and...

Hope you get good results too. You have put a lot of work in, I've tried the muffins with your receipe, they turned out great but I'm afraid I can't take to them at all. This 'bran' thing is getting me down. The way some people yum yum yum the muffins you would think they were biting into...

Well good luck to you. You are doing very well. I am new myself to this site, so hovering around it myself trying to pick up tips and receipes etc. I am finding it very helpfull, so I hope you deep it up and reach your goal. It will be worth it in the long run.

I just made chocolate muffins, ok. I put some cocoa powder into the mixture. I have tried them sweetened, with splenda, / sweetened and flavoured with cinnamon, sweetened and flavoured with vanilla. They have all turned out lovely, but I'm afraid I cant stand them.... I have made the...

Does this mean that you go from a semi-sitting position in bed to a standing position? You would need a very 'firm' mattress to do this? Has anyone actually filmed these being done? I would love to see them done on 'You tube'.... maybe someone in contact with the 'Dukan site' might ask for...

Wobble Wonder, Hi, Keep going XXXX You've lost a stone in almost one month, that is great. August will be no problem to you. I am finding it hard to get some of the products. Don't know what part of the country you are in, hope you can get a good selection. Keep going, it will be worth it.

Just found this thread and can't wait to try these recipes. Going to do the 'chocolate' one tonight... can't wait.... Great ideas. Any great muffin ones, find they are a bit heavy going, would adding wheat bran lighten them?

Going great WB. I am finding it kind of hard finding my way around the site. Recipes (which people have tweaked) and some of the shortened words. Is there a 'recipe' section? Down south in Ireland and cannot source many products that are easily available elsewhere. Non fat yoghurts...

Hi Chris, I've spent the last 3 days reading your thread and you are to be admired. I hope those 2lbs fall off very soon. I am very new to this site and finding it kind of hard to navigate. I've picked up some food ideas reading this, but sometimes I cant find any reference to things...

Yahoo.... first weekly weigh-in. Down 4 lbs since my two attack days, so lost 6 lbs in my first week. Thought it would be much slower as I had only 12lbs to loose, but I'm delighted. The next 6 will be slow, but my 'true weight date' is May 26th so its 1lb a week and I'm sorted. My...

Congratulations. You should be proud of yourself.

Just tried some of this, fab. Highly recommend it. Had a packet in the kitchen from I dont know when.... must get a few in for future.

3 lbs down after two days on attack. Hoping a great surprise next Monday after first week. It will probably be slow as I've only 12 lbs to loose before 'True Weight', but I am going to keep going till May 26th. If you dont get to your 'true weight' by the predicted date do you continue on...

Weighed in yesterday, my OH and I both down 3lbs each. I was happy as I have only 12 lbs to loose, but OH thought he might have been down more as he usually looses 6 or 7 lbs on the first few days of diets he's tried before. Maybe he will be down it by next Monday as then it will have been a...

I'm a newbie too and find this site very helpfull. On day 2 of two day attack phase. Will weigh in tomorrow to see what has been achieved on the attack phase. Looking forward to cruise phase. Going to do 1pp/1pv, should achieve true weight on 26th May, so here goes....

Asked on another thread about weighing in. We decided to weigh ourselves once a week, so will update here weekly. On our second day of a 2 day attack phase. Will weigh tomorrow morning and fingers crossed our weight will be down. I have 12lbs to loose and my OH has almost 2st, so here we go...

Day 2 here too. Going well, made the oat bran muffins with some lemon zest, they are not bad at all. Will try them with cinnamon tomorrow.... My OH is doing this too, so its a bit easier doing meals for two. Should we weigh ourselves daily or weekly? We were going to do it weekly so as...

Hi there, Started myself today also. Will keep an eye for tips etc. Good luck.
