I have lost my focus as well. I joined in April I think. I am now 30 pounds heavier. I really didn't realize it until I tried something on in a store dressing room. OMG I realized I had gained and had to go to a larger size. And of course the full length mirror and the lighting didn't help. That was my AHA!!!! wake up…

Yes vitamins should be taken as recommended. I am hyperthyroid with hypo side effects. Losing weight is almost impossible no matter how much I work out or cut calories. Alli is working for me with the permission of my doc. I have noticed I am losing inches and I didn't notice it until I put on a top I hadn't worn in a…

I have to agree with you. As long as you stay within your calorie range and fat range no problems should occur. I too am on the 60g/19g. I try to keep it at 16 g a meal though as I am stuck in a class room for several hours a day. No time for bathroom runs. While I have only been on this for two weeks I see a difference. I…

I just started taking it two weeks ago. I am not having extreme side effects. While things are a little "looser" I am doing very well. I have lost about six pounds so far. I just watch my fat intake according to the alli site I should have 60 grams of fat a day or 19 grams per meal. So that I don't suffer the side effects…

When I crave ice cream I put ff milk a few ice cubes and sf chocolate syrup in the blender. It makes a nice shake that helps with the craving.

I am doing a do over also. I am starting day 3. As of this morning I've lost 5 pounds.

Have you checked the dukandiet.com.uk to check your true weight. According to the book if you go beyond the recommended days of attack you might start gaining weight instead. I belong to a team that has been doing the dukan for a while and they are an awesome support and a fountain of knowledge. They have helped me a lot.…

If you are really craving crunch I had a friend suggest eating 3 or 4 pork rinds. Yes they are high in fat but they give you the crunch you need without the carbs.

I have been doing the Dukan since the middle of May. As long as your oatbran is 100% oatbran you will be fine. I have used Hodgeson mills. I now buy mine in the bulk food section of Hy-Vee. You can also get it at most healthfood stores.

I take my iron at night. My doctor prescribed the slow release and I am doing much better since switching to taking it right before bed.
