Just saying Hi :)

[LittlestWookie]

Today I'm starting Dukan after my friend lost 3 stone in two months of her baby weight recommended it.

I went from 9 stone to 13 stone during pregnancy! I've managed to get to 11.4 stone since giving birth but not lost anything for 3 weeks and I'm eating really healthily so trying a different tact! I'm not breast feeding and doctor said at my 6 week check up I can start to diet. I had a c section so heavy exercise is out of the question at the moment, but do atleast half an hour a day walking with the pram.

My true weight is 8 and a half stone, I was always 8.6 stone but had gained after two holidays to Ibiza in the space of two months up to 9 stone (alot of eating and drinking!)

I'm going to center parcs at the beginning of November so ideally would like to get to 8 and a half but 9 stone would do, or I won't be able to go swimming.

Stocked up on plenty of fish, chicken, seafood sticks, sf jelly, oatbran and diet coke!

Thanks for the replies! Today went great although I'm eating ALOT more than I used too, I guess it's because it's carbs that fill you up?

TBH wookie, eating more protein actually fills me up. I have only ever been hungry when its been too long since my last meal. none of the meals I have leave me feeling hungry after eating them.

The thing you have to try and get into the habit of thinking is that this is no longer a 'meat, tattie and veg' meal....now its just meat, meat and meat....Instead of one chicken breast, I have one and half. I think it seems as though we are eating more, and especially as we spend far more time in the kitchen cooking it all LOL.

Well done on the first days x

 

[LittlestWookie]

How many eggs are we allowed a day on the attack phase?

 

[xeilidhx]

As many as you like if you don't have cholesterol issues. I have 3 breakfast, 2 in muffins and sometimes one to bind burgers. Some days I don't have the muffins but I always have three minimum x

 

[LittlestWookie]

I read it was two a day on another site, good to know as I love hard boiled eggs! Lol

There's something in the book that suggested as many whites as you like.

[LittlestWookie]

Oops,

it was 2 large skinless chicken breasts cut in strips,1 tbsp oatbran, 3 tbsp light soy, 3 tbsp skim milk, 1 teaspoon sweetener, 4 tbsp total 0% yog and 5 cloves of garlic between me and my OH (he had rice too as he isn't dieting)

Two egg scrambled egg with skim milk.

What if I added in a tin of tuna (in spring water) ?

Or add in another egg? So have 4 a day?

[LittlestWookie]

Duplicate!

 

[sididd]

Tuna sounds good, the more pure protien you can eat the more you loose. I can eat a chicken a day And it really does show xxx

 

[LittlestWookie]

Thanks

 

[ellie1969]

wtach the soy sauce... i think its a tolerated item on cruise 1 tbsp only and very salty so can causeyou to hold water

 

[LittlestWookie]

I got it the recipe online, it said it was for attack, I won't use it again x
