Me too Ellie - really don't want to crave carbs again and would just be happy with more oatbran every day but I guess Dr Dukan has his reasons for giving us carbs on conso again........ That is amazing Chris and both of you are much healthier for it...... To have a health scare like that really puts your life into perspective, that must have been a terrifying time for you all. Thank goodness he is hale and hearty again. Hope you have a lovely weekend - not sure the weather is going to be lovely but no rain or snow here yet!! LOL x

STS today which is fine, its great that I can go away for 5 days with lots of Dutch temptations and come back having lost 2 (Wednesday) - so I'm happy same as MrR. Determined to lose these last 4 lbs - sat here thinking that Im 3 lbs under my original target - MARVELLOUS
Each day I pinch myself that I am wearing 14s clothes and they are comfortable and can get into a size 12 (the bottom half) when last summer I was 18/20. I sleep better, have more energy, I'm not hung up about food or constantly thinking I must do something about my weight problem - my head is sorted, confidence has soared. My family are proud of me and my work colleagues & friends cannot believe how strong I am, my family eat better too - No negatives to think about, the bank balance will survive with all my new clothes! What else is there to say other than I love Dukan and look forward to the 3rd phase.
Another good Dukan week in store, more time for cooking, exercise etc .......... have a good Dukan Sunday and week. A big thank you to everyone that has helped me feel so Dukan good

All I've done is ironing today and I still have a pile to do - its 2 weeks worth so it will take time to get to the bottom of it ................ had enough for one day so going to do the rest tomorrow. Don't think there's anything on the TV so its an early night with my book I think. Tomorrow I'm going into our local town with my son while he buys some new clothes. No sorry while Mum buys him some new clothes and then taking my daughter to Uni while she hands in another completed assignment. Will be glad when this degree is done and dusted. MrR is moaning about the washing up (we have a dishwasher but he chooses not to use it) taking an hour. My reply "try ironing for 8 hours, dear".
A good dukan day, coconut muffins, omelette, toms & mushrooms, yoghurt, and tonight roast dinner with chicken & bns, parsnip, sprouts, cauli & broccoli. PP tomorrow already got salmon defrosting and there is some chicken left over so thats a good start for a PP day. Muffins for breakfast, plan to bake a load when I get up so I have a few days worth in the freezer. Hope to make the tofu dessert while I have space in the fridge

Hi Chris, I just wanted to say what an inspiration you are. I've just come back from a holiday (yesterday) i took the Dukan book to read whilst I was away but had read it within a couple of days. We were able to get wifi at the hotel & I read your diary from start to finish & you have prompted me to start today ! Thank you so much for sharing your journey, I hope I am as sucessful x

Ah thank you JoJo - last June I went to visit a friend of mine that lives in Switzerland on my return she had sent me photos of our trip - I was shocked by what I saw so I started my Dukan journey and I havent looked back. Dukan is fab it needs determination but if I can do it then anyone can - so grip it by the horns and show it who's boss. Before you know it Jo you will be a happy dukan bunny just like me. I look forward to getting to know you and reading your dukan journey x
I cannot wait to visit Switzerland again this summer minus the 58lbs baggage

A very boring day today - sorting stuff out from my summer stuff and other stuff in my wardrobe now have 3 piles for friends, charity shop & and a few odd things for Ebay. No snow here but my goodness its blowing a gale. Just been to the local shop and you could feel the car being buffeted. I've had the horrible palputations a lady of a certain age gets sometimes. Ive not had them for ages so why have they started again! Oh well Im sure they will go soon enough ........... Not been hungry either today so not eaten much up to now - chicken roasting and having spicy kebabs and vegetable chilli instead of beef chilli. Just feel out of sorts - its the dentist tomorrow and I hate going to the dentist so thats on my mind too. Oh Chris stop whining it will be fine ................. see you tomorrow dukan ppl x

Not much happening today except for the dreaded Dentist this afternoon, will be glad when Ive been. Taking some black trousers back to M & S size 14 too big see what else I can find clothes wise never done as much shopping. Need to start looking for something for a wedding im going to on the 4 June fancy some nice oatmeal linen trousers (tailored) and a floaty blouse, patent shoes and bag to match ........ just dont do dresses.
Electricity maintenance here today (overhead cables) so may have no power from 8 - 5.30 everything in this house will not work ...... Its a horrible day too very cold and really windy. My next door neighbour had an awning type thing over the patio, came off and got stuck under the top guttering last night.
Today will be a PP (cant cook anything anyway) had a look for a flask but cant find one. Lets hope its only off for half an hour (wishful thinking)
Have a good dukan day x

Yep Sid never liked to wear dresses in my previous chubby life perhaps I should do the same and try some on - at 5'10" they will have to be xl - changed the M & S trousers for some capri trousers hope I suit them. My lovely daughter has just said 'Mum, we need to get some fake tan on those legs of yours'
forgot to say in my previous post even the Dentist congratulated me on the weight loss - she is a slip of a young girl and a lovely dentist if you can say dentists are lovely. Its around 8 months since I last went ............... does make you feel good when someone notices.
Im visiting a friend next week that doesnt even know Ive been doing a diet plan so it will be great to see her reaction - love it.
