Scrumpers diary the revenge !!!!

[Maintainer]

France is big on paperwork too, so I'm used to that. At the opticians last night, OH was mesmorised at the papers we were given for social security and the health insurance. In fact the guy ended up collating them for us and putting them in labelled envelopes so that I didn't get it wrong!

 

[robinhood]

Keep going, Tan. One day the paperwork will be a distant memory and the beach lifestyle will be a reality!

Peppermint tea all the way for your 'issues'.

(Jo, I wish all health professionals would accept the Carte Vitale machine, then our lives would be so much easier!)

 

[jaqys]

Aww bet the paperwork makes it all seem so much more real.
It'll be worth it.

mmm been solicitor with the kids today got all our stuff certified just Alan and his stuff now then hopfully it will all get lodged next week

dukan wise mmmm not going great but trying going to get back into it when the visa is lodged but try not to go silly ...im not eating bread or anything but i keep succumbing to the odd biscuit !!! not good

dont seem to be able to fill up on protein so need ket really but i cant live in ket can i ?



anyway early night time i think been up late typing stat decs the last couple of nights

We sound in similar places, Scrumps, so if you've not regained too much, perhaps it's a good place to be while we're not losing the plot. As you say, we can't stay in ketosis for life.

 

[scrumper]

mmm feel heavier ...dukan true weight was around 10 st 4 and i seem to hover round there if i put on i can get back to 10 4 easily but its a struggle to get much lower so maybe it is my true weight !!!


today i have had dukan toast and and egg
also a pineapple muffin (dukan muffin made with pineapple yogurt)

so already over the oatbran allowance

for tea im having chilli no rice but have used kidney beans so more carb , but i think it may not be too bad a thing

 

[Maintainer]

Reintroducing a little has to be a good thing. Yesterday I had some pita (small quantity in a mixed plate of salad stuffs), and some dressing, oh and a bread roll, and I lost 300g. Out of ketosis of course... so I'm losing the fat I put on, rather than just the water I suppose.

Who knows, but if this helps us stabilise, why not? (Just that I do get hungrier!!) And I don't like being hungry!

 

[scrumper]

yep im with you on the hunger thing ....not nice

 

[Maintainer]

but what IS nice is helping myself to an apricot from OH's stash to eat at some point during the day... knowing that I can

 

[Emmma]

Mmmm, apricots - yum! I think i have a pretty healthy fear of hunger, i'm definitely not pleasnt to be around when i'm hungry

 

[scrumper]

mmm well ive had pork this week a its now allowed plus the other bits and im up 2 lb !!!!!

mmmmmm also cut my eggs down , so
cholestrol v weight gain mmmmmmmmmmmm?????

 

[claire21]

Is pork allowed now on cruise please or have you moved on to the next level?

 

[scrumper]

apparently now that Dukan has sold his soul to the highest bidder and become a low cal diet , he now allows lean pork for the American market

 

[scrumper]

[Maintainer]

Petrol in the freezer? (I won't ask!!).
In our day, there were no party bags and you know what went down really well at my birthday party (to the extent that my Dad was made to do it year after year after trying a little of it one year) - BINGO!! No need to have big prizes... just the anticipation and fun of waiting for your number (oh gosh I used to love playing myself!!!). Legs 11 and all that
