Camping + Dukan

[Sander23]

So, my family and I went camping over the weekend. It was a warm spring weekend so it sounded like fun. I packed up my pantry food and then forgot to take it with me. So went to a local grocery and was able to replace everything but the oat bran. I despaired at the thought that I would be hungry and tried and not be able to make it through the weekend, but gave it my best go. On the trip I had 2 PV and 1 PP day, so I think that worked in my favor. I didn't break down,a ctually felt quite good and much more nimble than normal, and had a good time. When I got home I jumped on the scale jsut to see if I'd gained a pound from eating too many vegetables and I had dropped 4.5 since my Friday weigh-in! I was shocked - the only thing I can attribute it to is that we walked a lot more than I normally do. But other than that, I had boneless pork chops for breakfast and dinner, steak for breakfast and dinner, chicked for lunch, and a couple of eggs each day. On my PV days I added in green salads, spinach, broccoli, celery, and tomatoes along with my butternut squash soup (which I had put in the cooler, so it wasn't in the forgotten food bag).

Well done on the loss in difficult circumstances. I'm sure the exercise didn't hurt.

Now that you're back, though, you know that pork chops aren't allowed, don't you?

 

[Sander23]

No - I thought the lean boneless ones were - I bought them on purpose... I'll have to go look back at my book

 

[Maintainer]

Please do. Let us know on here if he's changed it in the English book, would you? (I speak from French book experience, and all pork is out!)

I have the English book (bought a few weeks ago) and it doesn't allow pork...

 

[Sander23]

I am in the U.S. - I guess we're different

 

[Dana]

Oh I was getting excited there at the thought of adding pork. Oh well never mind.

 

[anjuschka]

woo hoo another tweaked edition of the book to really confuse us...

 

[jaqys]

Cool.

A very small cornflour bomb. You don't want to go over the tolerated limit. (Although I think that will probably end up being 1 tonne of cornflour allowed per second of every day before long. )
