yeah two cheesey things was unfortunate. The CB pie was planned, but the cauliflower was on offer and I shouldn't have bought it!

Note to self (ref fish + veg dinner last night): when you overcater the veg, Jo, there is NO NEED to pile up your plate with it, then eat the lot. DUH!

Jo, I quite often overdid the veg (and will again today) and although I lost quite slowly, I did lose. Slow off, slow on. I've managed to maintain what I lost (apart from my Christmas/New Year feasting/holiday) so it's only water weight.
Better to eat too much veg that not and then turn to chocolate, etc because you're still hungry/wanting something.

That's exactly how I see it, Laura. I'm pretty sure I've overdone the veg quite often.

Hello ladies... like you, I have problems conceiving that veg will ever be my real downfall. Unfortunately though, the three veg I abused last night are the "worst" kind and I am REALLY REALLY bloated! (white cabbage, brussel sprouts AND cauliflower!!). Even the cat left the bedroom last night 
But I hear ya... slowly slowly healthily catchee monkey...

Yup here too - blooming nightmare here at the moment... back 10 mins early from lunch so having a quick browse but won't be talking much!
Went out for steak and green beans (liberally doused with butter - so I told myself "an Atkins meal"...). Just had a yoghurt, cos no dessert appropriate - didn't think a lemon meringue pie would quite cut it! I even brought away with me the biscuit given with coffee...

I'm now fiddling with papers cos I don't want anyone else to give me anything else!
Well, 4 weeks and bugger all that has stuck don't know why but it just aint shifting. I was stalling with Dukan anyway, but then that was over Xmas. I am fed up with counting carbs - and not being able to have a plate of cabbage for example if I want it without feeling I have to weigh it. Also hungry today, after eating my digestives earlier in the week!!

Glad to have you back Mousey...
Ref stall - it does happen with Dukan, particularly after a lengthy period on it, but he does say after 10 days one needs to act. There are a few remedies. We'll talk if you have the problem again.
Next time you stall (cos attack will give you a loss, I'm sure), when you post your menus, try to be as accurate as possible for a while (quantities and all)... it helps gauge them better.
