I can. You can. Dukan
I am just approaching the end of day 2 (attack) and the side effects are really starting to emerge. My breath absolutely stinks, even my kitty is repulsed by it. I think, in fact, we are having a breath-off!!! I am tired! I fell asleep after my 40 minute walk but the bonus is that whilst sleeping I am not thinking of food! My headache is starting. It's not too bad at the moment but I can feel that, by bedtime, I will be nursing my head.
I'm generally doing ok with it though. Luckily, I have this week off as I start a new job next week. I purposefully proposed to start Dukan this week as I knew I could devote my time to the diet, reading the book, food shopping, re-reading the book, nursing side effects, re-reading the book, chatting on this forum etc.... So far, the time off had really helped me focus. Hopefully, next week at my new job, I wont be stressing about the diet as I will have planned the menus for next week and cooked everything up prior.
So....a little about me.
I am 31 years of age and started to gain my weight in my late teens and have never really managed my weight, never been in control (or at least FELT like I was in control). I live in Derbyshire with my boyfriend of 5 years and our two kitties. I have a degree in History and American Studies and am a qualified adult lecturer of English and History. I am really into rock music and love live music events; everything from concerts to festivals. My favourite colour is green and waltzers make me giggle!
