My Dukan diet

I walked to town and back today (Dr Dukan tells you to take a 20 minute walk) which took me about 35 minutes, plus pottering time. When I got back I had a slight headache, but nothing like how I felt on Atkins (I think, let me check). Yep, headaches from day one. So it sounds like I probably did a bit too  much exercise.

If this is as bad as it gets I can definitely last a week on this diet.

Today I heard one positive, one so-so and one negative story about dukan. I know it goes with the territory but people do love to tell horror stories. My sister-in-law told me that I need to go to weightwatchers properly but it really doesn’t work for me.

Weight 222.8

Dr Dukan tells you to weigh yourself each day during the attack phase, probably because he expects you to lose a lot of water weight and see fairly spectacular losses. I’ve lost nothing which comes as no surprise.

I used my fitness pal to look at the calories I had taken in yesterday and it was probably about 1200. I wouldn’t say I wasn’t hungry, I’d say I was bored of eating protein, but I didn’t run for the biscuit bin. Enjoyed the hot chicken last night. I had two muller lights as well.

Today: a slightly thinner galette (I’m going to try making them more pancake-y), ham and cottage cheese for lunch, the mullers, the other portion of my smoked haddock and egg and crab sticks and chicken as snacks.

No headache yet.
