Update: I strted the CLEAN program Elimination diet about Feb 5, eating no dairy, eggs, wheat, no coffee or alcohol (that means wine) etc. Then I began the CLEAN program CLEANSE at the start of Lent, or Feb 13. I feel fantastic, I have lost about 5#, but the focus of this is health and...

Ok, I thought I had better post something ,as I have been all around the eating world and have landed in a new place. I recently watched "Food Matters" and am now motivated to eat for health - which means beans, nuts, seeds, veggies galore, and fruit. Yikes! Weight loss is important, but...

Great Reboot!!! Keep on Rollin that way! Perseverance is the key.

Righto, stumped and moving forward....that's the way with shifting weight, too. Pygmy

Maybe a stumper?

Yea, once I get in the groove of losing consistently, I can adjust my PP/PV days to suit, but not in that groove yet!! Argh... Yesterday, friends invited us for a meal and I knew it would be tricky. I tried to eat ahead of time and planned to just pick a bit and have the butternut squash soup...

Thank you, thank you!! I have been looking at recipes and trying to figure out what ingredients I might replace....very helpful indeed. :thankyou:

Ok, I did a Wikepedia look-up and it says mincemeat has dried fruits and shortening, so I must be confused because that does not seem like 'Dukan food'.... And I guess Quark is similar to American cottage cheese, minus salt....

I apologize if there is another thread on this topic somewhere.... It seems this is mostly UK forum (maybe I am wrong...) and so I have some questions about foods: 1) What is Mincemeat? Might it be american hamburger or ground beef? If so, I think we need to use 10% fat, or less. Is that...

Its weird, but several of my posts are not going through and I can't tell until I log on later and see what I posted is not there - argh Anyway, down 3.5 since the reboot

Chicken Curry Soup sounds fab...giving me ideas for another Sunday making Soup!

Hey there Vamp - Just get in to your Cruise phase, stay close to plan and watch the scales drop. Seriously, this plan works if you stick with it.And the others are right that you can eat until you are full....I have heard many a Dukan tale of eating a whole rotisserie chicken!! Good luck...

You guys are cracking me up.....but I hear you on the need for PV...its just having that V for variety. I was considering 2 PV days in a row, then 1 PP, or a 1PP/2PV plan - it would certainly be a better option than no plan!! Happy Day!

Down another 1/2 #.....:)

Hellooo P - Great loss and kick start... I, too, am taking off a few pounds I took off before...argh...but we know how, right? Your bus is so crowded its a good thing I am back in my saddle, as I can gallop alongside if I stay in the saddle and keep tight on the reins ;) Happy Day!

Great start and how fun to be thinking ahead to a wedding!! Should be great motivation. Thanks for stopping by my diary - the support here is really great! Doesn't it feel good to be back watching the numbers go down? Happy Day!

Not sure whether to copy & paste list each time.....or if we just update our own, but 3# down total for G2G!!

OK. enough said, Cruise it is. Besides, I am craving some butternut squash! Its weekend, so I can roast a big pile, for eating, and for soup - Yummo. Which brings me to this thought about the PP/PV alternating days. perhaps, I will not be as strict this time around and allow 2 PV days in a...

Well, I resisted the chocolate, but not the wine!!! I have not weighed since the 1.5 loss and today is probably last day of Attack > we will see tomorrow if I do one more day attack because I blew one of the two on wine. Today, though, is POP. So far: 0% Yodurt Salmon 0% cottage cheese

Yup, another day....keep on it!

Yay!!

I did POP until getting home from work yesterday...that is always my hard time....usually, I like a glass of wine to shift gears and then I have to cook for others. So, my plan is to find another way to make that transformation from work to home....if its still light out (ugh - deep winter...

nice lost....keep rollin!

Consolidation is def testy.....good luck, your PP day will help you 'reset'

Good luck to you V...once you get in the swing and discover your 'go to' foods when no time, you will find the plan pretty simple...and the results will motive...you just have to stick to the plan because that is what makes it work. Happy Day!

Had to really fight a chocolate craving today......jeepers, that comes back with a vengence! But, I made it! Hope everyone is enjoying their protein today :)

:wow: What a great welcoming! THanks for stopping by everyone. So, I am down 1.5 lbs and I officially start today with a couple days of Attack. I hoped yesterday's weigh in would be a temporary high weight because of NYE celebrations, but surprised to already be going down the slide. I did...

What a huge difference! Great work on keeping it off.

Great thread.....body and house clutter are connected, no doubt. Maybe you all will motivate me to do some house clearing this year.

Hello - I am new here, but getting familiar. I was interested in your diary because of your Consol experience. I lost 55# last year and did Consol for 5 months, then half-backed for another 5.....then got sick...and now cruising off 14 pounds I put back. I found adjusting to consol tricky -...

Good luck Eve...you ail get there!! Its persistence that takes us....

Hello... I like how you have the RED Attack at the front of your thread title - how did you do that? Don't mean to hijack, but have been searching & can't find answer.. Looks like you have been doing week and here we all go again, now that the holiday is finished!

​Diary post #1 I am introducing myself as an "old Dukaner", meaning I have done this before.... but am new here. I was on a Dukaners forum and lost 55# in 7 months. I made it 5 months of Consolidation, but never finished to Stabilization. I then got really sick with pneumonia (hospital 8...

Curious how people like this one...

Will make this this week - cooking a turkey today for New Years, so will just 'dry fry' some (not sure if this is correct as I am not a Brit and Dry fry turkey might be something in your markets...:giggle:

Flagging this one....yum

Ditto.....very big dif...great work!

You look great - thanks for sharing and keep chucking those fat clothes!

Thanks, Irene. I found that and many other helpful tools! This place is loaded with tools and help. Seems to be the character of this place, too. I just hope I find enough time to keep up with it!

Wow, amazing success.....Congrats on your effort!! Update???

Congratulations! and Enjoy! Clothes fun again? I appreciate how you believed you could change > belief in change is essential. Then you get there with persistence! Great work!

Enjoyed this, so giving it a bump up :)

Welcome, Petal, I think you will fin success on this plan.

Thanks, mostly I am learning how to get around here right now...there is a lot here!!

Congrats! - looks like you got the 50 posts! Still getting to 20 here :)

Be careful with any drugs - so many side effects. Losing weight will lower BP and cholesterol.

Hi Vampyra - I am new here also....and I am doing Dukan. I successfully lost 50# over 7 mos and kept if off about a year. I have put back 14 pounds, so starting again. I will be posting in the Dukan Forum/threads. I think everyone there starts a diary where others can check in on...

Hello, New here, and just sending good thoughts for you to keep cruising! Congrats on getting right back in the saddle after the holiday!

Good Morning.....just putting in my two cents .....I think a lot depends on how much you have/want to lose, which equates to how long your Cruise phase will be. I did Cruise for 7 months and that seemed 'restrictive', so I was ready for different foods. If you only have 8-12 weeks of Cruise...

Yes, Happy New Year around the globe!

Hello P, I am just new here, but was successful Dukner last year (returning to get back to TW after illness). Consolidation seems really manageable to me and many people still lose. Bit gives you a bit more flexiibility, so if you are staying on Dukan, maybe Consol, or Stabilization rules...

Loss per week average Hi there, Your question has probably been answered, but, I lost about 1.5 to 2.5 pounds most weeks. I lost 55 pounds in 7.5 months. I am new here though, as that was 1.5 years ago. I have put back 12 pounds, so starting again to get that off! Good luck Go 2Goal
