Susie and Orbit's daily dribble

[flutter-by-us]

Hey lady Susie quick query re harcombe .... it states you can have v low fat (live) yoghurt and in phase 2 v l fat milk & yoghurt yet most low fat equals high sugar not sure how this fits in with the diet and I think that's part of the reason I failed at dukan eating l f yogs, oatbran, veggies etc.

Interested in your thoughts my lovely not dissing the diet just a-wondering xxx

Hi hun

All yoghurt is live, so (from what I can see from the forums) most people have full fat yoghurt, especially Yeo Valley (but not flavoured ones). I bought Total 0% because I didn't realise this - but will get Yeo from now on

I'm still not clear on the milk thing, need to read the book right through

But no Atkins bars today, or sugar free anything!

Well done my lovely its great getting to the end of the day and thinking its been a good one!

I am a little confused with the diet but am skim reading ... not sure on the not mixing carbs and fats meals in phase 2 am guessing its to do with our body metabolising the meals 'correctly' but can't find an explanation.

Its about how our body processes fats & carbs differently, so if you mix the two its something about an insulin inbalance, can't remember the scientific facts tho!

I have natural yogurt on Atkins & pretty much have since moving onto OWL, couldn't be without if really. x

You have the low fat yog and milk with a carb meal and you have the full fat yog or cream with a fat meal. No mixing the fats and carbs is the key

Tee hee afternoon all - just sneaking in for a quick howdy.

It's not precious here about internet use and they have music playing (which I actually find really annoying but am going to let it flow over me lol).

Nice bunch of people - but oh so young - and poor office manners, no one will pick up other phones when they ring, and stuff like that - drives me nuts! But it'll be fine

Harcombe is going well - I don't really think it's that different from OWL, but hopefully will be the kickstart I need

B - bacon and eggs
L - tuna, lettuce, grated carrot and beetroot with lemon oil
S - 25g brown puffed rice and Total yoghurt
D - roast pork and cauli mash
W - 2 litres
E - might try walking home, about a mile
A - nope - Day 3

 

[Dietkitty]

One day of full attention is really all they can expect lol.

 

[ladyfelsham]

Well half a day anyway

 

[LVLLM]

oh enjoy your walk home love xxx

 

[ladyfelsham]

Abandoned the walk - peeing down here - so decided to stay dry

And OMG I ate - no, sorry, inhaled - dinner at 6pm, I haven't been home this early in ages!

 

[ladyfelsham]

Oh boy am getting the low carb headache and flu, so gonna head to bed with a book and some nurofen. Sleep well buddies xxx

 

[flutter-by-us]

Sounds like your new work will be fun lady susie! Hope you feel better after early night. Sleep well. X

 

[Quak]
