My story =)

[sarahistanbul]

funnily enough im not hungry....absolutely shattered though but will push myself to go on my air walker for 20 minutes tonight to get things moving!! i still have my galette to eat but think galette and steak will be too much for me! i feel really heavy as well with all of the meat that I am eating! Ive gone from really small veggie based meals to lots and lots of meat!! hope i start to lose weight and dont put on

He doesn't recommend any strenuous exercise on Attack, Sarah, so don't force yourself if you're tired...

I'd move the galette up to breakfast or lunch henceforth cos it's very filling, and the oats swell inside us!

 

[sarahistanbul]

ahhhh thats why! I was using the bran for yesterdays galette because I didnt have the oatbran and was full for the entire day! I know what I will have for breakfast now

 

[Maintainer]

every morning without fail... this is what I have (3 makes a Cruise dose)... (recipe and method on p.1 of the Recipe thread!)

 

[sarahistanbul]

i have just been to the shop and not been able to find any oat bran...lots of porridge oats but no bran....what do you suggest?? should i come off the diet and eat healthily until i can get some? i want to do this properly

 

[Maintainer]

As I said to you previously somewhere around here, either get an online order in quickly, OR get a friend to mail you some from the UK - they're not heavy... and you'd have them in a week. (The original French book mentions the bran on about page 200+ and doesn't say they're obligatory! Things evolved... you'll not be doing anything "wrong" or "unhealthily" - cos that's how the diet started - you'll just be a little more spoiled for variety.)

hey all....i decided to come off the diet until my oat bran was delivered, but my package of oat bran didnt make it to me in the end! i have started again today instead of putting off the diet because of no oat bran! i plan to use wheat bran in my galette instead of the oat bran and go from there..do you think this might affect how much weight i need to lose?

so far today ive eaten

breakfast- galette with sweetener
lunch - chicken with herbs and a low fat rasberry yoghurt
dinner - chicken mixed with garlic and low fat yoghurt

15 mins exercise on trampoline and lots of water and tea

Wheatbran and oatbran have two completely different reasons for inclusion in the diet. The wheatbran is optional and helps with transit. The oatbran is the one with the good stuff to help with cholesterol issues, etc etc.

Why would having wheatbran affect how much weight you need to lose?

Good luck whatever you do!

 

[sarahistanbul]

i just thought it may affect the rate at what i will lose weight..but i will give it a go and see how i go
today ive eaten
breakfast - galette
lunch - egg mashed up with salt and pepper
dinner - steak with garlic yoghurt
and shrimps
