And for today:
B/L: 1 dry fried chicken breast, 2 slices smoked salmon
D: about 250g turkey marinated in vietnamese shaking beef (also called luc lac in the book) marinade
S: 5 toffee muffins (my silicone trays are smaller than paper muffin cases so 2 days worth of bran makes 10 muffins)

It does actually feel like I'm having a naughty extra one, but hey hum - 2 for breakfast, 1 mid afternoon and 2 for pudding works well for me I think. Made 2 batches today so I'm set for this week - once they're gone I'll go back to galettes for a few days I think.
B: 2 toffee muffins
L: 1 smoked mackerel fillet, 1 pack fridge raiders chicken bites (reduced in sainsburys so thought I'd try), few slices beef jerky
D: About 250g turkey breast fillet dry fried with garlic chilli & herbs
S: 3 more muffins

Had a disastrous (as in: nerve-wrecking, OK Dukan-wise) weekend, and have stalled at 210.5 for 3 days, despite the fact that I actually saw purple on the ketostick this morning for the first time in weeks. However, Aunt Constance is back, so I am now fully convinced that in my case constipation is linked to stress and stress only.

Alottolose: The laziest way to eat the gojis is soak them in yoghurt before going to bed, and in the morning I either eat it as it is (or add some sf jelly for flavour), or add the daily dose of oatbran to the mix, and it tastes like muesli. By that time the berries are softer but still crunchy, yummy!
Today had Dukan's oat tabbouleh for the first time, and I think I have discovered a new addiction. He seems to have recommended eating it for 3 consecutive days at lunch in case you are stalling. Hope it helps heh...

Today's PV menu - and THANK goodness for a well stocked (Dukan) freezer because my day could have gone belly up with a cancelled lunch today, so nothing planned... and both lettuce and cucumber going off!
4.5km walk to work... getting ever milder so won't bother with scarf and gloves cos they get in the way after a kilometre or so
B: Dukan muffins with smoked salmon in the mixture
L: slice of each beef mince and chicken mince meatloaf with (what I could use of) lettuce, cucumber, couple of cherry tomatoes, little onions, and a skinny chicken leg to gnaw (bought a 5K box of legs and they're ridiculously scrawny!)
Fat free yoghurt
S: sugar free jelly (1/3 sachet)
D: 100g chicken livers, caramelised onion (fry lite, candarel, good non stick pan!), small salad (will stop at greengrocer's tonight)
baked egg custard

Weight is the same, TOTM day 1 so I will be sticking to PV for the first 3-4 days, especially since not feeling very well.
B fromage frais, agar jelly, gojis, bran
L veg soup with 1 blended hard boiled egg and a blob of yoghurt with green spices; fish mix, baked (just miscellaneous fish), out of prawns so making my hm curry-ish sauce with tuna flakes from a can instead of prawns and crabsticks (sadly noo crabsticks, either);
S tzatziki (cottage cheese, yoghurt, gherkins)
D egg whites omelette, roast pepper & cottage cheese mix for filling
Lots of water.
Exercise - something light, probably just treadmill
