Hi,
Just wanted to share the following with you. I started the Dukan plan 8 weeks ago at 12 stone 10 lbs. Over the first 5 weeks I lost 10 lbs which I am delighted about. I stopped weighing myself 3 weeks ago and at that stage I was 12 stone. In the last 3 weeks I have never once deviated from the plan, the only thing that may have been causing me an issue was dairy, which I cut out for 5 days last week. Back on that allbeit limited amounts as from today!
So, this morning after a pp day yesterday I decided I'd hop on the scales. Before doing so I tried on my jeans of truth to find that they were fitting a heck of a lot better than a couple of weeks ago. Anyhow, got on the scales to find that I'm STILL 12 stone!! I couldn't believe it, that in 3 weeks I have lost nothing. These particular pair of jeans would be fitting me usually at 11stone 8/9/10lbs.
I'm just wondering if anyone else has noticed this - inches lost rather than pounds? I'm thinking since I've taking up the jogging I may be toning up a bit too. Going from doing no exercise what so ever to jogging 3 times per week has to be doing something right!!
I keep trying to tell myself that it's how my clothes feel on my that's important but I still find it disheartening not to see the scales moving downwards.
I drink 2 litres of fluid each day, mainly water, don't take salt in my food, don't suffer from issues in the basement and don't go off plan. The only other thing I can think of is that my cycle is a bit all over the place.
Many thanks in advance for any imput
