Hey! I'm just about in your age boundaries! I'm 20! I'm 5'5'' and currently 139lbs, looking to get to about 130 but may go further depending how I feel at 130! I too started this journey in the overweight categorie at 157lbs, lost about a stone a year or so ago and then got stuck at 147 for absolutely forever. Gave it…

Made my salad for tomorrow! :) Rocket, onion, tomato, cajun chicken :) I'm gna take some yoghurt to drizzle over the top and some cottage cheese for a side :) Breakfast plan for tomorrow is scrambled eggs with dry fried tomato and onion. Tomorrow night will be my big test- my first meal out on the dukan! We're going to an…

Way to go guys! I think its such a fun thing to do, and when you see these things around you'll be thinking 'OMG I used to have one of your attatched to me!' It really puts the weightloss into perspective!

Mexican food is really easy, and great for larger groups of people (12 people is perfect!) Why not make a chilli or something? All you need is mince, veg, spices and kidney beans, with rice to go with it :) It can work out fairly cheap aswell!

I am going to lose 10lbs (or more!) by Christmas by: * Sticking to my Dukan diet plan and not cheating! * Drinking 2 litres of water every day * Going to the gym at least twice a week * Walking for 30 mins every day * Have the lights off for bed by 12 every night * Get up before 10 every morning Let's do this! :)

Start weight - 145(start of last week) 11/12 - 11/19 - 11/26 - 12/03 - 12/10 - 12/17 - 12/24 - Em xx

I'm in

Cereal is pretty good and easy, and healthy too if you get the right ones! I can see how difficult it must be to get a decent breakfast leaving the house so early! The other thing I could think of is whole grain toast? Otherwise maybe boil eggs the night before and put them in the fridge, then you can slice them up and…

I think that looks good to me! I'm doing the Dukan diet so my breakfasts vary depending on whether I'm on a protein day or a protein and veggies day. On protein only days: Boiled eggs with chicken strips to dip Poached eggs with ham Scrambled eggs Plain or ham omlette Ham with low fat cottage cheese If I'm allowed veggies…

This is so easy to do! My tip to stop it happening again, (with any foods) is to log in advance! I've started deciding what I'm having the next day the night before and logging it all in mfp, this means I can make sure I match my goals, I ban myself from having anything not already logged and if I do I have to go through…

Hey luzmidd! Wow congrats on the loss! When you stopped did you follow the consolidation and things? And did you put any weight back on? That's my main worry! That I'll work really hard to lose loads and then put it all back on again after! I've found a recipe for dukan cookies so I'm giving it a go, just got them out the…

Hey dia, I'm pretty new to this so I don't really know for sure but from what other people have said if you cheat on the diet a little bit it can affect your loss, but its pretty individual! So I guess it's more of a trial and error thing tbh. If your weight loss slows, stalls or reverses then its likely to be because of…

That's a really good loss! I think I've lost 6 but lack of reliable scales makes me a little unsure! I'm feeling good too I'm so happy that it's working for you too! I feel so unbloated :) I've resisted so much, it's bonfire night in England tonight and we went to a firework display, all my friends got burger and chips and…

That's so amazing that you've done it for 10 months! What phase are you in now? It'll be so good to have someone with experience to help! Quick question, do you know the policy on sweetcorn? I have a bag of frozen sweetcorn and I used to use it as a rice replacement when I wasn't feeling like carbs but I don't know Dukans…

I love dairy too! And chicken is soooo yummy so a good diet for me too! I make most of my sauces for food from scratch out of tomatoes and spices though so i've had to adapt this slightly for yoghurt instead of tomatoes, but tomorrow I can have tomatoes again! The Dukan website also told me 3 days in attack but I had a bit…

Hey livestrong and dia I'm a newbie too! :) I've just finished day 3 of attack, 2 more to go and then I can eat tomatoes!!! (I have been craving them massively!!) How are you guys finding it so far? Em xx

I've just started my dukan journey :) I've just finished day 3 of attack, and got 2 days to go! I'm thinking I might weigh in at the end of all 5 days so that I don't get disappointed if the scales haven't moved! I'm quite looking forward to being able to eat veg again! I've been massively missing tomatoes in particular, I…

You need to eat a minimum of 1200 really, ideally between 1200 and 1500 for most dieters. Below 1200 calories and your body believes that it is starving itself, therefore it will hold on to the fat to try and sustain you for longer, instead you'll lose muscle, which is dangerous in itself, but this mode makes it incredibly…

Hey! I've been on MFP a while but have previously only really used the phone app so have never used the message boards! I started Dukan Attack on Tuesday, I wanted to lose around 12lbs so I only did attack for 3 days, I'm now in Cruise Phase and have just done day 2 of that. Its a difficult diet I have to admit because I…
