New to Dukan diet

[purpleflower]

Hi I'm new to the dukan diet ,I started 10 days ago now. I did attack for 7 days (stuck to)and lost 6lbs.
I'm now pv/pp cruising. I thought I would create this diary to keep myself on track as this morning my weight went up instead of down (. I'm normally a cambridge diet devotee and find this diet very different, the good thing is I am never hungry really....and do wonder if I am eating enough ??

Anyway,if anyone wants to comment on my foods/diaries please do and tell me where I am going right or wrong .i am also open to anyone sending me any nice recipes !

Today's pv day :

Breakfast: vanilla fat free yog with 2tbsp oatbran mixed in
Lunch: little yeo valley yogurt pot
Drinks: 2x cans Pepsi max,latte made with skim milk,1.5-2l water with cambridge flavouring
Late lunch/early dinner. Cooked chicken with bbq spice on,steamed courgette chunks and about 6 cherry tomatoes
Snacks. 2 slices of ham,chewing gum

Yay hello you!! Hope your ok! Day looks good the only thing to watch is ham as it's salty so you can hold water, also try asparagus, works wonders for weight loss and makes you wee loads lol!!

May lay off the ham then,am getting bit sick of it really so won't be a problem

[Andi75]

Great!! I think it's worth the effort!! Don't know a thing about ketotis so won't comment :0

Nice seeing your losses too...you're well into the 12's....nice feeling

i read that your adding Cambridge flavourings to your water...is it just flavourings or is it protein filled or something?

xxxx

 

[purpleflower]

its just flavour no carbs 5kcal

 

[Andi75]

Fab if it makes water taste nicer! I find the water tough some days & easier others. When I'm not on the dukan I'm not a big water drinker...at all...if I don't start getting it down me early in the day, I'm knackered....but he says if you don't drink the correct amount of water it won't work.... So we just keep of glugging!! Xxx

 

[purpleflower]

I find the water on dukan easy compared to cambridge which was 4l a day
