I NEED CARBS!!!!!!

I have done really well so far on this diet but have had a tough day today At Uni there was a buffet as it was the last day for some of our group. The food there looked amazing. EVERYONE there was eating delicious food and all there was there for me was a couple if slices of chicken I stuck to it though and resisted all goodies. Only thing is now I can't get the thought of lovely treats out of my head and I just want to have a blowout and eat everything!!! To top it all off the beef stew I have in the slow cooker for when I got home us not ready as we had a power cut!! Nothing in for tea now and if I see another chicken fillet I'll scream!!!! Trying to resist the lure of the takeaway right now!
Phew, rant over!!!

Oh, I know what you mean.
I just hang in there.
It will be worth it.

Stay strong, it is difficult but we have to learn how to cope around buffet foods etc., iys gfoing to happen and we cant shut ourselves in a room..... drink plenty of water till the electric comes back on, dont give in yoor doing well, and will kick yourself if you slip x

Ah thanks for the reply

I went to Sainsburys and bought some nice extra lean mince and have made nice dukan friendly bolognaise which I have had in a bowl with some low fat cottage cheese. I also bought the ingredients for a dukan lemon cheesecake which is setting in the fridge for later. First time for both of these things on this diet and I think the idea of having something different (and special) is helping me to stay on track

Your so close to that first stone................... you might do it next weigh day x

awww it does get easier, plan your weeks menu, if its at all possible try and batch cook some things. You would then have emergency stuff in the freezer.
Well done for avoiding the buffet stuff.
