IF AT FIRST YOU DON'T SUCCEED, try try try again and again (and again...)

not really Scrumps - the 14s were well stretchy and I spared the public the sight of my rear end and thunder thighs with a long jumper!

OK I'm disappointed this morning, although I know I have no right to be and should be pleased to have lost 1.5K this week. I'd hoped for more! BOOO! So now the "slog" will start... slow and more painful (on the scales). I have to admit that I'm having no issues otherwise. I left all my salad and veg at the house Sunday night, so veg has been thin on the ground this week! I found a package of Dukan spag bol in the freezer for lunch so at least there are some veg in that.

Cold weekend forecast at the house but dying to get there as usual nonetheless.

Happy Dukaning to all :)
 
Don't be disappointed with that x Hope you have a good weekend at the house .... I'm jealous of you living in France... We are going this summer again x
 
dont be dissapointed ..im due a weigh in tomorrow and have not lost ...... Im not eating enough as im not hungry go me !!! ....so in a cycle i need to break out of ..back to work monday and then the motab will slow as im in water ....... im going to see if i can make myself eat more ...i seem to have gone off everything ....but still the weight clings to me !!!
 
I have constant goosebumps!
 
Morning diary (and all),

I'm disappointed with my loss this week (although was showing a gain three days ago, so I guess I got lucky at the end of the week)! Now I guess I'm into the "hard slog" period - and the easy pounds have gone! One thing I shall take out of my menus (once the weekend pot has been eaten) is cottage cheese as it's the only thing I can identify as a potential issue. Also ham. So convenient but alas perhaps a culprit.

TGIF and all that.

A loss is still a loss in my books, so well done, you're heading in the right direction. i've done PP all this week hoping to get things moving but my loss was only 1lb & i've not strayed of the nearly straight & narrow!
Have a great weekend!
 
think we both on LONG HALL me dear ..... im trying to find my food issues dkan bread after 3pm is one but im not sure what else
 
Sorry the loss isn't greater this week but it was my experience in Cruise that it went in fits and starts, not steadily. I never was able to pin a stall down to one particular food or another, although at the end I did start eating more beef (the fibres mean it takes ages to digest) and drinking loads fo fluids to shed the last few stubborn pounds. But we're all different and definitely some seem more prone to water retention and constipation than others. You've obviously discovered what works and doesn't work for you. Have a great weekend and keep up the good work xx
 
I agree a loss is a loss. Patience will out xxx head down bums up and youll be back to where you want to be xxx:D
 
Confession time
I didn't mention it beforehand, for fear of egging on the "other me" to simply EAT this weekend, but on Saturday our local town in Burgundy hosted an important cremant tasting event (cremant is the Burgundy version of champagne). Realising that attending without drinking wasn't an option, I did however plan Dukan friendly food, and hoped I'd stick to it. Unfortunately not.
BUT I did draw a line in the sand in the car on the way home, and had my PV dinner, did my usual PP yesterday, and so consider the worst was avoided. (OH later confessed to me that he'd visited the "not to eat until slim again" cupboard when I nipped out for a cuppa with a neighbour. So at least I didn't do that.)

Scores on the doors this morning? +100g. Maybe it'll be worst tomorrow, who knows, but I'll consider I escaped lightly!
 
Well done for stopping when you did and getting back on track! Hopefully that little gain will be all there is as it sounds like you did really well.

I don't think I could at the moment - wish I didn't have the 'all or nothing' button ;) xx
 
awww you could have made it a cracker of a confession , at least you had some restraint , maybe we are learning in our old age xxx
 
Awwwwwwww thought it was going to be a massive front page confession Jo lol xxx You kept out of the naughty cupboard and your gain is only small, All in all not a bad slip onwards and downwards xxx
 
The gain was only small the day after, but worse things have happened since... yesterday was the leaving lunch of a long term colleague of mine. 22 years she's worked in the place. A select group of her friends went out to a restaurant, chosen by her, for lunch paid by the Firm. Set menu. I ate all I was given. Of course. So weigh in today shows that.

Again, last night, I stuck to PP and am happy to continue again. Not ideal but "fortunately" my social life seems to be quiet now for quite a while! (Why do I have to live like a hermit to be able to stick at anything?!)
 
Maintainer, I admire you so much - your diary is so honest and you don't kid yourself when things go wrong which is refreshing!! Hope the lunch was lovely and a good send off for your colleague - I will be hermiting from today for a bit - defo won't have the self control to socialise where food is concerned for a wee bit!
 
Wouldn't it be easier if we were all locked in a room and someone brought us our dukan friendly meals
 
oooh gosh yes, Ellie.

This weekend, OH decided to have a "weekend off" as his loss has slowed. (I've given up advising him so just went along with it, and actually quite enjoyed seeing him having all sorts of things I heroically ignored!). I'm definitely a "feeder" as I ended up encouraging him to have more before restarting today!

We had a centimetre of snow yesterday in the country and I was so disappointed there wasn't more! Back to yet more drizzle here in the city... boo! Will walk to work cos it seems to have stopped, but might have to suffer yet another frizzy hair day!

Ref that mug cake, Ellie - unfortunately I just can't live without my muffins at breakfast so alternate oatbran recipes aren't good for me... and, like another poster, I try not to have chocolate powder ever for fear of where it might send me!

Slight loss on the scales but it's not weigh in day yet!
:)
