I didn't update yesterday, so quickly here it is: I gained 1lb 1/4! Oh the dammage a small slice of pizza can do eh? I'm guessing it was largely the salt content (and interestingly I could really taste the salt in it, which I am surprised at as I have never added salt to my cooking or to my meal, but clearly my taste buds were used to salt and are now not!
Today however, I lost 1lb 1/2 so that's 1/4lb in two days. Better than nothing, but it came at a time when I could have done with a bigger loss to be honest as I am craving carbs really badly and have ended up having some today (I had a very small slice of birthday cake at the kid's party we were at today - did avoid the carb layden buffet though - and I did a roast for the family and am afraid I snuck onto my plate a yorkie and a couple of small roasties. I'm working on the basis that if I didn't it would fester and fester until I went crazy on carbs, but no doubt I will be feeling the disappointment tomorrow).
Breakfast: Oatbran porridge
Mid-morning snack: Nothing as was on way to the party
Lunch: 2 slices of ham from the inside of a sandwich (I figured the ham was better than the cheese sandwich even though ham isn't a goer unless lean) and a small slice of birthday cake (I did however avoid the breadsticks, the sandwiches, the doritos etc)
Mid afternoon snack: Beef jerky
Tea: Roasted chicken breast with leeks, onions, carrots, courgette, broccolli and a mini yorkshire, 2 roast pots and a soup spoon of chicken gravy)
Drinks: 2 x cups of tea, 2 x cans of Diet Coke and a glass of water.
I need to do something to re-envigorate myself on the diet, I managed to get into a pair of pre-pregnancy skinny jeans today which you'd have thought would have inspired me again, but it just made me want to cheat to be honest. I may have to stick my pics on the fridge or something!
Starting Weight: 19st 12lb
Current Weight: 18st 12 1/4lb
I think sticking photos or something else inspirational on the mirror/fridge/cupboard is a good idea...if nothing else, it's a daily visual reminder of why you're doing Dukan, and what you hope to acheive. I was thinking of sticking my 'motives' for losing weight on the mirror, or having it somewhere I look everyday, just to keep me going!
