Well done for staying firm and starting to see the results - it gets easier once you are cruise and can have veg. Just remember that PV days are still to be mainly protein, not mainly veg! What do you think to the galettes?

Thanks! I need to swot up on PV today so that tip really helps. I am out on a trip all day tomorrow (my first PV day) so I need to plan and make my packed lunch today.

I like the Galettes - tasty and quick. I plan to experiment a bit more with my oatbran when I get to cruise though and try out some of the other ideas.
 
It is pretty easy once vegetables are introduced. You can pretty much have any vegetable that is low in starch. So tomatoes, cucumbers, salad, squashes, all cabbages/brassicas. Limit the carrot and beetroot to one meal only on PV day. You can make up a huge pot of chicken casserole type meal and freeze into portions to use if you so desire. Same with beef etc. I couldn't find the low fat stock cubes so I decided to use only half the amount of stock cubes required and add more herbs/spices instead.

I took around a bottle of balsamic vinegar so I could make my salad better when out. One of my favourite lunches is salad, tin of tuna with a sprinkle of celery salt, greek yoghurt and balsamic vinegar (not mixed in).

So happy I can have veggies every day now except my PP day.
 
Thanks Poppy - I think I may have that [a tuna salad] for lunch tomorrow. It was one of my favourites when on sw and ww.

I am going to have a look in the recipe section now for something for tomorrow's dinner. The head to the supermarket - again! I think I have been practically everyday. I dread to think how much I am spending! Must muck of the fridge first - DH is away working this week and I bought veggies and fruit etc before I decided to start Dukan - they don't look that happy now!
 
I didn't really want to step on the scales this morning. I had convinced myself that I would have a little blip up and fail to meet my 5 lb attack target. WOW - I lost 1.6 lbs :eek:, which means I lost 6.4 lbs in attatck :eek:. Loving it!

My first PV day :)

Should I start a new diary for cruise? I know that I can edit the title of my diary but can I edit the prefix - and if so, how? Thanks!

I have decided to start a new diary for cruise. So please don't bother posting here. I will copy my attack summary into there.
