Hi all, firstly a big thanks to you all for such fab support 
todays gone well
B: home made yogurt, oat bran and half a banana - i know im not allowed fruit yet, but had a long walk ahead and 3 hours of standing outside in the cold, so needed something more than oat bran to help me climb the hills. Im pretty sure todays 7k hill trek followed by constant shivering, easily burns off the banana and kept me from feeling light headed
L: Roast Dinner, chicken stuffed with lemon, onion with a side of veggies (boiled of course) lol
snack: yogurt with cinnamon
D: grilled prawns with a side salad - pic to come
Todays gone really well, im so chuffed about how well the yogurt turned out so big thanks to chinababe for her fantastically delicious recipe.
Ive decided on returning to uni, i will try the 30 day shred. Gave it a go a few days ago and im still aching, so its gonna be tough, but im ready for the burn!
bon appetite x

Ooh tofu burgers sound tasty are you posting your recipes on the recipe thread as well? I'm off to check, if not would you consider it?
Hi all,
sorry for being M.I.A for a few days, I've returned to uni and am just getting back into the swing of things, it's really nice to have the Dukan Diet because its provides an element of reliability and hope into my uni regime.
Any who, thank you all for your wonderfully supportive comments.
I have considered writing a recipe thread, but instead I thought I'd write a PDF and upload all my recipes to date so they can be accessed from one place ASAP soo fingers crossed I can finish it and have it uploaded by the end of the week
Oooh good news:
1) lost another 3 pounds thanks to Mr Dukan, im now a very happy 10 stone 7 pounds
2) I achieved a first in my dissertation i had a dukan friendly celebration of steak - yummmy
Lets hope theres some more good news for my weigh in on friday or sunday
again, thanks for all your lovely comments, they are just what I need and really keeping me on track

wow has it really been 4 days since my last post?!
Ive tried a few new recipes this week: bacon wrapped skewers, which made a nice saturday dinner and sunday lunch accompanied with dukan friendly quiche
ooh and the paprika tomatoes are extra yummy on a PV day.
Ive stuck to the diet ruthlessley this week, but only succeeded in a pound loss. So its given me the extra kick to burn those pounds off:
friday I ran 1.5 miles on road
Saturday walked 1.5 miles
Sunday power walked 1.5 miles crossed country, it did start off as a run until i tripped up on a root and launched myself into the air, lol
I hoping that this time next week i'll be greated with a 2 pound loss, fingers crossed.
So far im still really enjoying the dukan diet and the control it brings back into my life altho im sure its playing havoc with my PMS, lol

altho im sure its playing havoc with my PMS, lolright, im dissapointed to say ive completly fell off the band wagon last week - hence the lack of posts as most days i ate something very naughty, but im refocused and ready for a week of success.
Last week I had a fainting spell and so feeling weak I reached for a 'boost chocolate bar' to literally give me a sugar boost, and from then on carbs have been on my mind all week with my cravings completly owning me....that one boost bar lead onto ..... a cadburys chocolate bar, 2 bananas, 1 orange and 3 biscuits spread out over the next 4 days. Then i went to a friends party and knocked down some 4 vodkas and a cheese roll.
I feel very dissapointed in myself, but i knew posting my mishap would re focus me. To try and make up for the deluge of mistakes, I went for a 5k run and 10k cycle which has limited my weight gain to only a pound.
So this week its, 1PP:1PV as i think that will be easier and hopefully drain out any carb fantasy's. Who knew that one lick of carbs would take me back to 'square one' with the lack of control? Anyone else find this habbit? Im also booked in for the doctor to gain some reassurance on my fainting spells.
But this week onwards and upwards to keep me on track, i will post a daily diary and i will try my absoulute hardest to walk and walk the carbs off, but i am a bit hestitant to exercise as im slightly fearful about fainting again, so i may be living in the land of home dvd's or 'lesiurely walks', just to be on the safe side.
Thanks everyone for such fantastic support, i couldnt do it without everyones kind words and strong encouragement
Breakfast: 2 tbsp oat bran with yogurt and sweetener
