My life is as good as an ABBA song!

Hey Cheesegirl! You've not failed until you stop trying! Chin up and carry on

I've had a gain over Christmas (10lbs) - Dread to think what would have happened over the course of a few months.

 

[Jojo25]

Great to see you back CG, come on let's do it this year xx

 

[CheeseGirl]

Day 3 of attack! Starting to feel I'm at the helm! Arrr, me hearties!

Today's eats (in no particular order as I've been munching all day)

2 hb eggs
muffins
mince flan
whole roasted chicken breast
yoghurt
sf jellies

No wonder I feel stuffed to the gills (or would that be 'beak' instead of gills?)

Was watching a local morning show, the local nutrition doc pooh-poohed high protein diets as they wreak havoc on your metabolism. I suppose that's true and I think actually that's what causes the temporary hair loss. Don't know where he got his numbers but he claims the highest success (80-90%) in weight loss is in people who reverse their daily meals - as in breakfast biggest meal of day, lunch average sized and dinner just a few bites - I know this to be true because when I unknowingly did it I lost tonnes of weight without counting nary a calorie and without foregoing desserts and whatnot. That said, I think right now I need the safety of dukan to lose the weight and then I'll (try to) figure out how to not gain it all back

Onward and downward!

You're sounding stronger all the time. Well done on your first 3 days of attack. How long are you going to go before you introduce the vegetables? x

 

[CheeseGirl]

Day 4 of attack!

B-muffins, coffee
L-grilled chicken breasts
D-rump steak, fried egg
S-yoghurt, sf jelly

Feeling pretty good, don't know if I've lost any weight but I defo don't feel bloated any more. Is it just me, or when you cut out carbs do you lose some body heat? I find I'm not sweating at night any more. My internal furnace has always been cranked up high, even as a skinny kid I was always hot, but the extra pounds obviously make it worse. Hoping to get to at least a reasonable weight before summer hits

Feeling stronger all the time! I had set a tentative goal of 5 days on attack and thought I'd be glad to get through 3 but it looks like I'll manage all 5 without much trouble. So, 1st goal nearly met! I start cruise Sunday so Sundays will be wi. I'm curious to see how I've done on attack but oddly haven't been tempted to peek at the scales

 

[Jojo25]

I'm sure you will see a good loss, your menus look fab x

Well, 5 days of attack and I'm 3.4lbs down. Tbh, it may actually be a pound more as I've been properly bunged up since day 3 (sorry, tmi). Will defo be adding wheat bran to my muffins from now on Stats update when I get on laptop, no can do from tablet. Have a great Sunday everyone!

[sarafvrm]

Well done, Cheese! You deserve a big pat on the back. You can do this!! xx

 

[CheeseGirl]

#result! Wheat bran is my new BFF
Why is it that when I have a pv day I somehow seem to forget all about the veg?? All I had yesterday for veg was a leafy salad! Well, and the stuffed peppers I made.

PP
B-fried eggs, muffins, coffee
L-grilled chick, turkey patty
D-grilled salmon
S-yoghurt, sf jelly

Am jonesin for some cauli mash but the cauli at the shops looks like it's been through the wash and they want €2 for it! At least I've got a bns for tomorrow

 

[Paulinegin]

Jonesin?! Ha!

[sarafvrm]

Bloody predictive text! It's quite fun trying to work out what was intended, though! xx

 

[Neonic]

"Jonesin"

Originally used to describe withdrawl symptoms caused by an addiction. An extreme craving. also; "jonesing"


Haven't heard 'Jonesin' for ages.

 

[CheeseGirl]

When I used to smoke this is how I would come off the plane after a long haul flight - screw the baggage claim, where's the smoking area!!

 

[Paulinegin]

Ha .... love it! Like you, Sara, I thought it was a predictive text replacement (there must be a word for that now, surely?)

Anyway, I'm Jonesin home time!
