My Diet, Week 12 - Consolidation Countdown

Well overall I didn't do too bad on my 1st week on the consolidation phase, even though I found it hard work.

I tried a new recipe  during the week, which I thought tasted lovely.

Rosemary Beef Burgers 

I also treated myself to an Indian takeaway on Saturday night, and although I thought of it as a celebration meal, the only thing I ate which was not in the Dukan Diet was the onion bhajee and a little bit of popadom. Over the week I also treated myself to 2 squares of fudge & an Eccles cake.

Mostly I just added salad or stir fry on P days (for my OH) to my food. My Protein only days were Monday & Sunday. My OH lost another 1.75lbs this week, he has now lost 1st 8lbs, so he is still right on track.

I weighed myself this morning and my weight was pretty much stable, so not bad.

Weight: 8st 12lbs

Weight Lost: 3/4 lb

Total Weight Lost: 1st 9lbs

So although a small loss, I feel I am doing something right as I'd still like to slowly get to 8st 7lbs. 

I did managed 2 tracked walks last week, but I also did a fair bit of walking yesterday which I didn't track, so probably walked for roughly 2-3 hrs this last week.

I am having a meal out with friends on Wednesday night, so there is one of my celebration meals this week sorted, not sure what I'll do for a 2nd - probably won't but we shall see.

My Diet - Day 47, 48 & 49

Friday 2nd November 2012

Breakfast: Low Fat Natural Yoghurt, spoonful goji berries (little sweetener & Cinnamon)

Lunch: Left Over Shepherds Pie

Dinner: Tuna Steaks with Stir Fry (using low cal spray oil) Red, Green & Yellow Peppers, Courgette, Cherry Tomatoes & Mushrooms with a sprinkling of Soy Sauce

Beautiful morning today and I did get out for a walk with my son, 35.31 mins covering 2.2 miles and burning 160 calories. I think my job has burnt off its own share of calories as well today.

Saturday 3rd November 2012

Breakfast: Vanilla Oat Bran Porridge

Lunch: Grilled Trout with herbs & left over tuna steak

Dinner: Roast Beef

Snack: Chocolate Mousse, Cup of Hot Chocolate


Housework has been my exercise today, cleaning sofa's, not my favourite past-time, but it did burn off a few calories.  I know, on the whole, my exercise this week has been pretty poor, but some days it's easy and then other days I just can't be bothered, hopefully it won't affect my weight loss too much.

Sunday 4th November 2012


Breakfast: Turkey Bacon, Tin tomatoes, Poached Egg (& OH had grilled mushrooms)


Lunch: Chilli Con Carne with "Cauliflower" Rice


Dinner: Cinnamon Oat Bran Pancakes with Natural Yoghurt


Snack: Chocolate Mousse


Absolutely torrential rain today so no chance of getting out for a walk, however I suppose I could have done a work out on the Wii Fit but I didn't. I was out all morning and spent the football on the box, alas my team failed to win again - argghh!! Another draw, so frustrating.


Had a sneaky weigh-in this morning, hope it's similar tomorrow.
