Thank you, Wed is my experimenting day, I feed son & DIL on Wednesdays.

Scales say 134lbs this morning!!!! i've changed my signature & am hoping that they're not lying like they've done for the last 2 weeks! telling me a good loss one day & something else the next.
holiday countdown is well & truly underway. Less than 2 weeks to departure. Son,DIL & I have been supporting each other on this weightloss effort. I've got a few outings coming up next week & have decided that the only way to get through some of them is by drinking! planning to stick to vodka & diet coke to limit the damage and by eating my own food before going so not tempted by ll the yummy unhealthy nibbles etc.

Have a great weekend, xxx

Gala meal
trying out eating in the real world in anticipation of holiday food. bread & butter, soup, steak, wine. hoping that the scales don't shoot up tomorrow. Wanted to get a sense of what undukan food might do while on hol? don't really know why as i already know that hols equal weight gain.

Slightly too much wine last night, head is a bit sore this morning & planning on a drink tonight as going to a BBQ ( who in their right mind has a bbq in September?) and will need vodka to get through it! hoping for a STS not a gain this week.

Happy BBQ China! We once tried to have a gas BBQ on New Year's Eve .... epic fail!!!

Since I'm from the Midwest United States - where it can snow in late September and all the way into May - bbq's are an every month activity! Although, I'll be honest, no one wants to be the person hovering over the barbecue for warmth in a blizzard. My husband and I are attending a camping trip with others in two weeks in the foresty/mountainy area. Who does that in late September?!?! Seriously, that's not normal.

Have fun at the bbq! Try to eat more protein than anything else!

Hi China and thanks for your kind message on my diary. Looking forward to getting to know you on this fab forum!

Sounds like you're doing brilliantly on Dukan, just keep at it as it truly works. On the exercise front, I've also read that our bodies can take a while to get used to burning fat for fuel rather than carbs or, more correctly, instant access glucose and glycogen. So maybe try sticking with it and monitor if it gets easier? I'm with Caro tho - had no trouble doing fairly heavy exercise while being strict on Dukan. Can't remember if I had a transition period though.

So good luck, keep going, enjoy your holiday and I look forward to catching up on your journey!

The way I feel t the moment, calories are the last of my worries! Just read an article in theDaily Mail that said hangovers get less with age. I can confirm that they re talking utter rubbish. will do PP tomorrow in penance.
