Lost since monday: 2.5kg in 3 days of attack + one PV.
Yesterday I took the day off and had lunch with my mom. It was meant to be the 4th day of attack, but it turned into a PV day. Had a nice salad with lettuce, onion, tuna, asparragus, tomato and a tiny bit of corn that i tried to avoid and two eggs sunny side up and some green peppers as main course. I had 4 (literaly FOUR) french fries (hummm) that came with the eggs although I had asked not to have them. So temptation was huge and i dipped FOUR fries on the runny egg yolk (yummy!)
Anyway no harm done as yesterday's weight was 62.3 and today 62.0 yay!!!
So, as planned first week of attack -2.5 kg (which might be just 2 if you dont take the weekend water weight into account) Anywhooooo its great for the morale and the will power.
Two colleagues celebrated their birthday today and brought in an amazing breakfast... did not lift my bumb from my chair.. not even to whish them a happy birtday (not too nice... but i have zero will power) but as soon as all the food is gone I will go to their desk to congratulate them... oh well!!
Off to Valencia tomorrow morning... hope to behave food wise as Dukan will be difficult... but already feel good about kick starting the dukan challenge again!
On Tuesday I will let you know how it went!
Have a great weekend

Attack day 2 ...
Day 2
Loss: 0.5kg
morning all!! just had my coffee and dukan bread for midday snack.. yum.
Today's weight was 62.6 - so less of a drop from the previous day but very happy.
The weather in Madrid these days is so gorgeous. It semms like spring, but May weather spring. It hasn't rained (like real rain, not just a few drops, but good old three days in a row raining) in like 3 months, which is terrible as Madrid is a city with high polution and you can tell in the air that we are suffocating. Plus the countryside is so dry, and the lakes at very low levels, like the ones we would expect in August. So... we are very very concerned. Anyway, in the meantime we are enjoying the nice weather. Bad thing is I am too tempted to use my Vespa instead of walking... oh well.
Also this weekend B and I are going to Valencia to the "fallas" so eating will be a challenge. Specially because we have already planned a paella with friends on Sunday.
On my last Dukan attempt I had a "celebration" meal even if on Cruise phase every once in a while. Obviously my weight loss was slower but it was the price to pay. I did not mind at all. So, Fallas here I come, I hope the scales wont punish me too much. Until Friday though I will behave. I also just cancelled tomorrow's sushi lunch with a friend we had planned beofre re-attakcing Dukan... we will meet next week, preferably not sushi!!
This diet is very easy to do, just need to plan ahead!!
Today's lunch: Chicken breast with sautéed onions and tofu
Have a great day!

Attack Day 1 - check!!
I had written such a long (and ofcourse lovely) post and it got deleted... argg hate that!!
As I was saying today's weight 63.1 (wooohoooo!!!) that's a great start to the attack phase, although I have to say that the 64.5 reading yesterday morning probably had that extra .5 due to the amazing lunch Sunday which was so delicious that it can be the best bye-bye to non-diet eating meal ever.
I know that tomorrow's drop won't be as spectacular, but I have to say that this a bit over 1kg loss has boosted my ego and my will power to get back on track.
About an hour and a half ago my colleagues came out of a meeting with clients and brought over with them the left over croissants and orange juice and I did not even sniff them!! I simply grabbed my bag and took out my Dukan Bread sandwich with Philly and Turkey (the dukan nutella recipee in the linked post is only for cruise and only in case of chocolate emergency). Once again preparation is key....
Have a great Tuesday everyone and beware of the Diet Troll I haven't seen him around... YET! but me... I'm back!!
Cheers!!

Back.... hopefully to stay...
Hello, hello... I'm back on the blog... and re-re-re-restarting Dukan!
Since december 3rd when I reached my lowest at 59.5 i have not been able to diet at all. I had a restart on New Year's that didnt last. I then went back up. Then I finally quit smoking, and.... up up up and away. So now, I am back to the starting weight of august 2011 with 64.5kg (yikes, how did that happen)but at least I'm not smoking. Oh well.
My weight had stabilised at 63 - 63.5 but today I saw 64.5 and decided, that's enough!!!
B's away all week, so its the perfect time to do the Attack phase. Plus I'm studying again, so no temptations to go out with friends or anything like that. I reall really want to have a mega-woosh of a couple of kilos on Attack, I need it mostly psychologically... not so much for the 2kg but for feeling able to restart and go back to 60 again as a first mini-goal.
On my time away from blogging I have read your blogs regularly so I know that you are all doing quite well. A very special "congratulations" to Sandi who is now officially my hero... and also to Moonday for blogging regularly again. Can't name you all, but you know who you are.
I will now check out the new blogger, Dukan Dietress, who commented on my last post, without knowing I was a quitter .. haha... but I am back, stronger than ever, and since the weather is so awesome after a very very cold winter, i will start my walking again ...
Cheers all... and I am glad to be back, and hope to stay ...

Sushi and smoking
Happy Sunday everyone!
No weigh in today, this week like I reported on Friday has been baaaad, bad in all senses. Work was crap and frustrating. Diet even more... I had great days that ended with wine and picky food for dinner. I was not able to concentrate. Quitting smoking has been postponed until I feel better with myself.
Food wise. Saturday I had my traditional Sushi day with 3 friends. We meet every two or three monts taking turns with whose house we meet at - although this time it had been almost 5 months - and we make home made sushi. Its so much fun.... we buy everything, the rice, vinegar, algae, wasabee, 500 gr of salmon, tuna and butter fish... we use also cucumbers, avocado and crab sticks. We mainly make rolls, which is the easeast and funnest.. who makes the tastier roll, the better looking one.. we also make nagiri, of course and by the time we sit to eat we are so full because of trying it while we make it and eating the bits that fall out.. its great fun. Needless to say there is also a lot of drinking going on while we make it. Anyway, that was my saturday meal...
So, no weigh in today, first because i was at B's and since his scales weigh one more kilo than mine it was going to be depressing to see such a high number even if you know you need to substract one!!! And second because i am so afraid to see the actual numbers!!! ainssss
Today are the presidential elections. B went to his home town to vote (I voted by post a week ago as i would need to go to Tenerife to vote...) The political and crisis situation in Spain is very very bad at the moment. Our socialist government is in a very bad spot right now, and im not saying a change would solve things, but it is one of those times where weather you want it or not a change is in order. I just hope that everyone goes to vote and votes wisely, in Spain abstention rates have always been high, but hopefully not this time.
Anyway today as I already voted, its raining cats and dogs and B is away i will have a quiet dukan perfect day!! Lets see what the scales have to say tomorrow. And this week i need to jump back on the dukan wagon 100% get back to the lowest weight of 59,8 (if i reached 59,5 would be even better) so, that is my mini goal for the week!!!!!! A 3 day attack is my plan for the begining of the week! Yes sir!!
I leave you know with a few pictures of our sushi making and a happy Sunday to everyone!!!
