MMMM just had a lovely lovely meal! I got turkey mince and mixed into it tom puree,onion, praprika,sage and thyme. Rolled into sausage shapes, baked in oven. They were too dry for me so I then made on stove, onion, garlic, mushrooms, chopped tomatoes,oregano and then a slug of pepsi max and bit of sweetner. I chucked the sausages in the sauce to warm them up so technically I made sausage shaped meatballs hahaha! This has been my fav meal so far, I had it with celeriac chips, I had already par boiled them and chucked them in freezer so I just took them out planked on tray sprayed with fry light and left them in hot oven until they were chips. Sooo good!
I've frozen the rest of the sausages, can have them on pp or pv day, sauce is pv only obviously.
My girls (bunnies!) are much better today, have been keeping close eye on them, after wrk, I came home and cleaned my bunnies out, they were cleaned out on fri but I like to keep them clean, esp with stitches and possibility of infection. Wounds are clean and tidy, they are both eating more today, was starting to worry as they had only eaten parsley and spring greens. Put them out on grass all weekend and this afternoon for a while. If u ask Pebble for a kiss she will stand up and nudge forward with her nose for u to kiss her aaahhhhhhh sooo spoilt!
Hubby has finished all the wood in hall, just white bits,skirtings and banister all rest was done by me b4 xmas, new carpet ( well old carpet, been in loft 8yrs! Its fine looks new!) being fitted on stairs and landing tomorrow I cant wait, kids keep standing on carpet gripper since hubby pulled up old carpet 3 weeks ago! Zach has a permenant hole in his big toe. He has the smallest feet in the house and manages to stand on it every couple days

Gosh your dinner tonight sounds delicious - I'll definitely have to freeze celeriac chips, what a good idea Kirsty. Try adding some orange zest to meatball (sausage!) mix, it reminds me of turkish recipes and seems to taste moister! What a cute rabbit giving kisses - I had an angora when I was wee that I named Wonderfluff and my seven year old is "desperate" for a white bunny her Gran let her handle at a pet shop last week. Honestly, Grandparents should be banned from taking their grandkids to pet shops - my boy now wants a Blue Tongued Skink too! Thanks mother-in-law!

OMG CD i totally agree! My mother was out of the country for 6mnths 3 yrs ago, she came back, was staying here for a week or so, withing 2 hours she had taken the kids and bought a hamster as I accidently killed the last one (dont, really, dont ask hahahaha) I wasnt happy I REALLY didnt want another one, it lived until last mnth, died naturally of old age nothing to do with me that one! She said she would get them a dog!! My hubby said it would be boxed up and sent back haha
My bunnies are v sweet, I am a bit anal I like them to be cleaned and spoilt I hate seeing them in the hutch, make and buy all sorts of treats and toys for them, tonight it was a coco pops box for them to squish into, they are dwarf bunnies, I didnt expect to love them as much as I do! I also didnt realise how much ahrd work they are to look after properly, we had a bunny 16yrs ago and I hadnt a clue how to look after it, poor thing escaped last seen on the railway line in cardiff, omg I sound like an animal killer!!! Honest i am not! LOL

SIDIDD do u live near me ??hahaha do u already 'know' about me,,oooohhhh spooky ! Only 3 fish and in my defense one was suicidal and leapt out of the fishbowl and fried itself on the floor in the summer sun 
The other 2 I take full responsibility for, I did buy the kids 'nemo' on dvd as we set the fish 'free' down the main drain out the back, I dont 'do' fish I hated cleaning them out, I cant cope with them flapping in the fish net when u clean them. After a few times it made me cringe, I left them until the water was cloudy I hated it so much, aww little fishes must have enjoyed their journey like nemo,,hahaha bet they got as far as the end of the road. oops
I am v gulity re the hamster, I had a broken wrist, the kids cleaned him out and put him back, I came down from upstairs later hubby was out, I saw something run along the fireplace, saw the hamster and woke Cameron who was about 13 then, he caught it and tipped it into the cage, it was v large and u had to put it in the top into its bed area, then he had a tunnel to go from that into the other storeys of the cage, I shut the lid, he liked to jump out so I shut it quickly.
2 days later my neighbour came over with his toddler, the kid wanted to see the hamster, i said ok he is sleeping so i will open it quick, I did and the poor hamster was trapped! His fingers had got caught in the hinges of the door to his bed area ;-( I took him straight to the vets, he gave antibs and said the fingers that were squashed will prob drop off! They were squashed flat. He survived 3 weeks and 2 did drop off but was found face down in his food bowl. He had a good life,over a yr but a terrible end. I felt awful, hubby took the mick ! No more hamsters.

Good PP day today, sts weight wise, weighed morning as usual and this afternoon too, something I dont normally do,was same weight.
b-2 turkey rashers one fried egg
l- omlette with bacon medalion cut up and spring onion 1/2 baby bel light grated ontop (I know, not allowed)
d- steak,quark and mustard sauce
pudding at 8pm!!! Egg custard with 1tsp dukan caramel flavouring yummy but not sweet enough and needs tad more flavour
Just made hazlenut muffins 1 tsp dukan hazelnut flavouring YUMMY, dd must ave smelt them as she came downstairs and asked what the lush smell was, she of course had one! I mixed a dessert spoonful of quark with a half teaspoon of dukan nutella and 'iced ' 2 of the muffins, they were lovely Mair had one of those and I had the other, was lovely to have another flavour muffin as a change. I will freeze half and make another flavour tomorrow. I want to make lemon ones but only have lemon juice, need flavouring.
I spent an hour driving around looking for shiritaki noodles, cant find them anywhere! Can find them online but would have thought somewhere in cardiff has them!!
Got a funeral ( a friends mum) in the morning, going to the service,burial and after bit but i wont eat unless dukan friendly, I dont want to stay long, I always think after a couple drinks its family time. I am driving so will be on diet coke. Looking forward to srit fry chicken and veg with 5 spice and diet coke tomorrow.

Kirsty, I've only just caught up with your diary and your pet-care antics! Like Sid, I laughed out loud at the hamster tale. Let me know if you're ever coming to London, though, and I'll make sure our baby guinea pigs are under lock and key, you sound lethal!
Fabulous weight loss! Dukan obviously really suits you. I especially like reading the diaries of people who are being imaginative about the diet, indulging themselves in a Dukan-friendly way. I guess my trouble is, I don't really enjoy cooking and producing meals for 4 kids and the OH (if he's lucky) is about as much as I can be bothered with.
Keep up the good work, and the posting! x

thanks sarafvrm! I am enjoying dukan, need to keep coming up with new meals or i will revert back to bad habits! having a rest from hamsters hahahaha! Aww guineas are cute!! I love my bun buns would like guines but oh says no ;-(
I completely understand about cooking meals for kids and hubby, it can be hard, I try to plan meals and see what i can have, but even if i have chilli one of the kids wont eat it and i have to make another meal. Roast dinneres are my easy meal, kids are sick of roasted chicken veg an mash or new or boiled spuds haha ahh well we gotta do what we gotta do an I dont want to go back to eating crap all time again ;-)

Ok been missing in action for a couple days, my weight jumped back up after 2 nights drinking with my cousin, I stuck to dukan food, but had 2 pv days as was starving, I also didnt drink enough water,,anyhow moving on, i have to weigh it all up and it really was worth it, we had such a great weekend!!
I didnt have a monster hangover luckily!!!
So after a pp day yesterday (mon) I lost a 1lb, had a bit of a stressful monday hubbys hearing (still no final answer yet) anyhow I struggled with dukan but i did stick to PP day, it was hard an I am guessing it was beacuse of vodka and then pv days to soak it all up!! Today was pv day, much better day. I will still enjoy myself again like that in future, the small weight gain an hopefully loss again is sometimes worth it, I had so many lovely comments about my weightloss.
I have had my hair dyed, haordresser was here 3 hrs yesterday bleach bathing my hair to a lovely bright orange, then highlighting and dyeing and then a toner so now i have a coppery blonde with blonde highlights,, I hate it!! She is coming back mon to put more blonde in it or i will be dying it back to dark ;/
I was always blonde my whole life then just over a yr ago, maybe 2 I decided to go dark, had enough now have to keep bloody dying it to cover blonde re growth and grey ;-( So it wont be long before I can leave the house hahahaha I went to sainsburys after wrk and thought everyone was staring at my hair!

Kirsty, its good you can still go out and socialise choosing the best drinks option with the lowest impact on the diet. Were not saints or teetotal and sometimes we do drink......but were so commited food wise and Kirsty your foods are great so the occasional night out isint going to ruin your great work.....keep Dukaning ;-)
