Dukan Do It....

Your back in the Zone Karin xxx Great to hear onwards and downwards xxx
 
Great loss !!! X
 
Doing good DNSF, that 6 lb gonna be gone in a jiffy!
 
Thank you, another 1.25lb off this morning, its going going....nearly gone.

Another PP day today so I'm back on track tomorrow. Although i have added onion to my chicken today (small amount for flavouring) but ate a small piece of carrott and celery at lunch time.

I remembered to have some cider vinegar watered down today, yuk, it really is horrid, but if it helps for now then I will suffer LOL.

Food today

Bf: usual Porridge / Yogurt / Coffee
Snack: Goji Muffins
Ln: Beef and Dip / Crab and Bread / Muffin (carrot stick and celery stick)
Te: Chicken Fajita / Two Beefburgers (HM)
Su: Yogurt and Sweet Omlette

7 drinks so nearly 2 litres.


Have it in mind to make some quiches tomorrow, Vamps post has given me a craving for it, be nice with a salad for tea.

I spent a large portion of this morning going through some old slimming club books and leaflets. Found my old WW record card, I thought I had been about 16.12 when i started there, turns out it was 17.04......I was there a year, had a lot of ups and downs and lost a total of 9lb by the end of it. It was 5 years ago too, thought it had only been about 3. I found quite a few recipes that i can adapt for Dukan. Will put a few up when I get chance to type them out.

Back to normal tomorrow, sort of, back to school on tuesday, but am planning to be up earlier in the morning so I can get all the usual pre school stuff done and then spend some time with my daughter doing girly stuff. Will be nice as a last day to do that. Hopefully fit in that walk too.
 
Funny to look back at old diet stuff isn't it??? I found my Cambridge diet card a couple of months ago and I really did lose the weight very quickly but boy I put it back on and more even quicker!!!! Made me appreciate any food and also taught me quite a lot about how I used food for every occasion..... The couple of months I did it for was quite depressing as there was NO food to look forward to just drinks or bars - I missed the socialising aspect of it - at least on Dukan you can go out for a meal and have a steak and salad or veg - I always have the biggest steak and thoroughly enjoy it!!!! Have a lovely day today and keep going - glad that Christmas gain taken a hike - mine will take a tad longer to get rid of I think!!! LOL!
 
Karin its dropping off well done xxx

It was quite weird, but at the same time quite nice because it makes you realise just how well its going now. Still a bit of hols weight to lose, but its getting there.

Monday was late this week, instead of a gain yesteday as usual, it was a gain today........so annoyed. Did nothing wrong yesterday. Only thing i can put it down to, well a couple of things. Is that I drunk too much !!!!!!!!!!!! Coke/Coffee/Water Not alchohol or I spread my oatbran out too much throughout the day or i had a couple too many of SF sweets.

Gained 1.25lb not a happy bunny.

Have kept oatbran to a minimum today, just porridge and lunch bread. No SF Sweets at all. And stuck to 8 drinks with more water than coffee today.


Ah well, fingers crossed for tomorrow.
 
Hi Karin

Don't despair you have done so well. I'm sure everything will right itself in the end.

I wanted to say thanks for your muffin recipe. I tried it Sunday night and was pleasantly surprised :).

I wanted to ask in another recipe you mentioned wheat bran. Do you use the coarse or regular variety?

Keep up the good work you have done brilliantly and are so good at sharing tips and advice

Thanks

Thanks mel, You're welcome re the muffins, I love em....and they freeze well too. My wheatbran is quite coarse, its the only one holland and barratt sell i think, this is my second packet and am nearing the end of it. i buy my oatbran mainly from there, although the last bag was from Morrisons, which isn't as nice, and I got 4 bags from Aldi yesterday.

It's just a scales blip, missus, nothing more and nothing less.

Enjoy your day :D

Pauline and Sid, yep i know its a blip and my slow brain clicked last night, late on, that its the week after my TOTM so apart from last month, I usually have crap week anyway. I've not lost hope LOL, I know its working. I was just having a minor rant...likely to happen each month cos i get so frustrated.

stayed the same today, not a budge. Had a good dukan day yesterday...........and the same today. I have had a tiny sort of cheat.........I say sort of because the fat content is only slightly higher than normal dairy allowed.

I bought Weight Watchers Mini Ice Cream tubs today, they are 2.6g fat per 100g, so a bit higher than the 2%, but I have been thinking about ice cream for the last week days, so instead of having one of the ice cream bars i bought an alternative. Was very yum.......but will try not to have one each night...just every other night LOL. Nah, seriously I'll keep them for when my brain is in overdrive for ice cream. Might try making my own frozen yogurt, but need a recipe first.

True, it will come right soon enough.
 
Lost 1.5lb this morning, so am pretty pleased with that. Must have been all that protein, i made sure I had my body weights worth, after seeing that video. Also didn't drink quite as much yesterday so that might have helped.

Made some toffee rhubarb muffins today, very nice. going to make sure I don't eat my oatbran too close to bed, as Iknow this doesn't help.

Having cheeseburger pie for tea, I was going to do my flat scotch egg, but realised I had used all my oatbran for the day. pie will be nice though, I add some nice herbs to it.
 
Might make cheeseburger pie tomorrow as have cottage cheese I need to use
 
I love cheeseburger pie!!!!!!
 
Another 1.5 off - you must be back to pre christmas weight now or lower??? Well done you....... xxx
 
Yea to the 1.5lb loss :D

Muffins sound delish how did u make those?

Lose, on the recipe page someone started a thread theother day asking about muffins, and I copied a recipe into it, I follow Trudy's recipe, but this time i also added a good 4 tablespoons of stewed rhubarb. So moist and yummylicious.

This is the recipe lose2win,

Trudy’s Muffins

4 tablespoons oatbran
2 tablespoons wheatbran
6 tablespoons skimmed milk powder
6 desertspoons sweetner
4 eggs
1 tsp baking powder
vanilla essence
1 muller light toffee or vanilla
3 tablespoons quark
Whisk all together and put into two silicone muffin moulds (makes 12 muffins) bake for 25 - 30 mins at 160 leave to cool!! I eat four a day and they stay in the fridge and last for days!!!! Everyone does different ones!!! You can add any flavour you want I sometimes do cocoa or caramel syrup (sugar free) or rhubarb and ginger


Another 1.5 off - you must be back to pre christmas weight now or lower??? Well done you....... xxx
you'd think eh? But with my gain day before yesterday all i've done today is lost that gain.........no clue why I gained unless it was the end of TOTM that happens to me. Still got about 4lb to lose to get back there, starting to annoy me to be honest, but..........I won't rant about that again LOL.
