Bonjour mes amies!!! Discovered something fun today, made myself a VIRGIN BLOODY MARY and I thought it was LOVELY and PV friendly!
Virgin Bloody Mary
Pure Tomato Juice (I used Sunraysia)
Wasabi to taste
Coriander to taste
Cayenne pepper to taste
Black pepper to taste
Worcestershire sauce to taste
Tabasco to taste
Optional stick of celery to mix (I hate celery but bought some just to mix with)
No alcohol, no added salt, fat free and DELISH.
I'm resorting to my favourite salmon and butternut squash for dinner, I am not sick of it yet and it's so easy and yummers.
Hope everyone is having a good weekend.

Happy Monday peeps. Today has been trying, to say the least. Dropped 8oz so I am still losing, just slowly. Today I have upped my water intake and had a very plain food day to try and kickstart - it's PP so:
B: Plain yoghurt and oatbran
L: Steamed salmon fillet
D: Trimmed lean steak, scrambled egg
Snack: Glass of coke zero.
I am going to do 50 sit ups this eve as well to try and get my muscles burning calories.
Craving like MAD today, all I can think about is a cold beer and fajitas.
Grrrrr.

Love it! I'm the same on my bike! I'm up to 15 mins, but gosh does it hurt! Whereas a 5km power walk to work each day doesn't even raise my BP any more!
Cocomo - while that recipe is indeed Dukan PV friendly, I'd watch the quantity you ingest on any given day as it's purely vegetables, no protein, and you need to up keep your protein to veg ratio high on PV days. And of course tomatoes are very sweet... so I'd have a tiny treat glass with a chicken leg if I were you!

Thanks everyone! Maintainer, I am saving my Dukan Bloody Mary for treats only - to be honest, it takes too much effort to make fresh!
i am still 1.5lbs off my first stone loss. It's REALLY annoying!
PV day today:
B: Greek 0% Yoghurt + oatbran
L: Green beans, lambs lettuce and steamed salmon flakes
Snack: 2 hard boiled eggs
D: Will be chicken breast and butternut squash.

Right peeps, I am not going to moan or cry about this, and I have already dealt with it, but I feel like I have to "come clean" in my diary here, otherwise I'd by very hypocritical offering advice to other people.
We'll refer to the following episode as:
"The Terrifying Kettle Chips Incident"
I have four mates from home staying with me last night, they were going to a gig, and crashed at mine. Resisted the heavy drinking to a certain extent, but I did choose to fall off the wagon (yes, I KNOW I evangelised to others about the evils of drinking on Dukan, feel free to post your comments here to the hypocrite
) so I chose to drink 3 gin and slimline tonics. I enjoyed them (actually for the sourness of the slimline tonic more than the alcohol) and I am not going to regret them. What I regret is what they led to.
My mates went out to the gig. The left two uneaten bags of Kettle Chips behind. So I opened one bag, and ate half of them.
It gets worse.
I was so freaked out by the terrifying ingestion of carbs after no carbs in my system for 6 weeks, I decided to expel the said crisps and get them out of my body. (cue one glass of salty water and fingers down throat). Very unhealthy reaction.
Lots of things to think about as a result of that episode but I do NOT like the situation I put myself in, so I am taking control back. Funny thing is, I kind of KNEW it would happen. I have become complacent because of the weight loss and the slimming effect the diet is having. I allowed myself to drink, which led to a poor decision about food. I will think about this for the next few days and think about what I will have to do to change my thinking.
So, today, I've had a PV day (as per my DR D instructions plan), had plenty of water and have "fessed" my lapse to Dr D on the website. Texted all my friends and told them I won't be drinking this weekend when I am back home. Hired a car for the weekend, which I will be driving everywhere to help ensure I don't drink.
Stupid kettle chips. Safe to say, they won't be in my first gala meal now.

Don't give up you have done so well so far! There are so many temptations about - socialising is such a tricky one especially where everyone else is drinking alcohol.

I'm back. Had almost 2 weeks of not strict Dukan eating due to a variety of things, but I have stayed the exact same weight, 13st 6lbs, and I am back on plan now. Didn't think it was fair to post while I was off the waggon, so to speak Few minor crisis moments personally and professionally but I am aiming to lose another stone in the coming 6 weeks!
Hope everyone is doing well!

good to see you are back Coco! I was worried that you had given up and I have missed your diary these past few weeks. Good luck with getting back into it and great that the weight has stayed off.

HI everyone :0 hope all is well in Dukanland - I have been doing well, and am down to 13st 3lbs, really pleased with how it's going, despite a bout of sickness during the week and retaining water as a result!
Don't have a lot of time to update as internet connection is non-existent due to work in apartment block and simply don't have time at work - nicking some online time in a cafe!
Much love all - I will try to get back to posting this week. Hope you are all having luck and fun x
