Dukan Diet?

nini83 · by **nini83** » Mon Jan 02, 2022 11:26 pm

Hi Luckyladee :wv

I'll join back in the thread with you if that's ok??
I have never tried the Dukan diet but girls in work do it and they love it. I lost over 3 stone in ww after having my daughter to get to my goal of 10 st 7 lb (i'm 5'5') i then prob lost a further half stone in the run up to the wedding with nerves and running around etc , I totally relaxed after the wedding and over christmas and weighed myself this morning I was 10st 11lb actually was pleasantly surprised as have been pigging out and was at a wedding nye and ate and drank all around me.!! Iwas good today as wanted to start back today but will start the dukan tomo and let you know my progress , I need to read the thread to see the "rules" of the diet more clearly but i get the jist. We are heading to singapore and australia on a big holiday in 6 weeks so plenty of time to lose a stone would love to be 9 stone 11 going and then ttc no 2 when we get back :o)ll

You were very good today well done and keep posting to give me inspiration and motivation!!whats the most important thing/tip for the first week??

Hi nini!
Glad to have a buddy while I'm starting out.

Well - good news first - in 24 hours I've lost 2.4lbs. I know there's a million reasons but regardless of why - that's a motivator if ever I saw one.

Tip for the attack phase nini - apparently it's don't go hungry. Stick to the allowed list only but eat as much of it as you need in order not to be hungry.

I just had my scrambled egg and smoked salmon for brekkie and am having my cup of tea now.

Good luck today.

I started before the x mas went from 10 7 to 10 2 on my scales, actually saw 913 on my mothers scales, the battery was dead on my own so I dont know if it was acurate or not. .

Well battery back in my scales now and was disgusted to see im 10 10 this morning, massive attack phase for next few days and must actually do some exercise this time.

Theres a few of us in it together now!

I was actually starting it yesterday but wasnt prepared fridge wise and DH was very bold and i ended up ordering in taco fries and chicken nuggets!! >:o)

Im seriously (tmi) constipated, i reckon theres gonna be a few lbs gone when i finally go, i drank 2 big glasses of prune juice yesterday to try get me kick started.

Roll on the scrambled eggs!

Good luck girlies!

YoMamma So

Fair play for posting the list and on the weight loss. Feels so good to be on the right path doesn't it?

I was 172.6 this morning - that's 4 lbs in 2 days!!!

I'll be back on later to put up my food diary for the day - good luck girls.

luckyladee · by **luckyladee** » Wed Jan 04, 2022 10:21 pm

Ok, so here's today's food diary:

Brekkie - 2 eggs scrambled with smoked salmon and a cup of tea
11am - another cup of tea
Lunch - tin of mackeral with 2 slices of turkey
Afternoon - 1.5 litres of water and a glass of diet coke.
Dinner - meatballs made from minced beef (less than 5% fat variety), oat bran, parsley, smoked paprika, salt, pepper and combined with an egg. They were YUM!
Evening snack - muller light yogurt

Still in great form and not all that bored yet - 3 more attack days to go.

YoMammaSo · by **YoMammaSo** » Thu Jan 05, 2022 8:55 am

good girl nini keep up the good work.

Luckyladee i like the sound of those meatballs i might just try them this eve. Im at an advantage as my dh is a butcher so i could have any meat i want in the evening, but im unimaginative really . . i was going to ask him to make up super lean mince but to add smoked bacon to the mince, i could still do your meat balls out of it.
how is your weight lose going ?

Im 10 5.6 this morning. Im not getting to do any excercise I think if i did the weight would come off faster. . .

yesterday
millions of cups of tea- skimmed milk and hermesetas
breakie boiled egg lean rashers
lunch honey and mustard kippers with cottage cheese
dinner vietnamese shaking beef -dukan recipe
Lean thinlly sliced sirlion beef
2 tblsp of soya sauce
1 tblsp of oyster/fish sauce
grated/ ground ginger
cracked black pepper
pinch of salt
some dried garlic
marinated all the ingredients with the beef for half hour or more, heat up a pan add a few drops of oil and wipe with kitchen towel put in either sliced or crushed garlic (i used garlic paste) and when the garlic gets fragrant ( 10-15 seconds) and the beef, the pan must be very hot, stir fry for about 1 minute and your ready.
The meat should be slightly rare!!

I actually fried some onion off before all of this and added to the pan in last few seconds and have a teaspoon of garlic and herb philly light on the side.

How many days are you doing the attack phase for? i'm going to do it till sat that will be 5 days we are having friends for dinner on sat night so will be having some carbs then and a glass of wine we will only be having pasta with roasted veg and the like as they are strict vegetarians i think by that stage tho i will deserve it!! keep up the good work girlos and lucky you yo momma with the butcher hubby perfect for the diet!! :wv

im the same nothing moving really here either, i swear new years day dinner is still in there :o0

luckyladee · by **luckyladee** » Thu Jan 05, 2022 11:11 am

That beef dish does sound YUM!!!

Well, this morning my scales showed no change at all. Disappointing but I guess after losing 4lbs in 2 days I had to expect it to slow down at some point. Hopefully we'll see more movement tomorrow.

Good luck today ladies.
