Daily Loss: 1 lb
Total Loss: 22.4 lbs
Wt. to go: 29.6 lbs
I did not eat as much protein as I should have eaten yesterday. I could not stand the thought of chicken after picking off some to make a salad. Had a glass of ff skim milk and then off to do my laundry. It took forever so I grabbed some yogurt (added coconut and pineapple sf flavoring) and frozen meatballs instead of making my big dinner. Jello made with yogurt for late snack.
Be careful not eating when you should and then feeling “just starved”. Your body may start to put itself into a protective mode.
It goes like this.
The little General, sitting on your shoulder, calls the signal and rounds up the troops and shouts:
“Save this woman from starvation”. “Cells! Hang on to that ounce. Do not let that fat get away. We will
need that.!” “Hey muscles! Slow that woman down. Save that energy.” “Save that woman.”
If you know anything about little Generals, they get more stubborn over time. They have a job to do
and little Generals “do not let the facts get in the way. “
I just love science, don’t you?
I have got to catch up on making my brocoli salad and do something with those other fresh veggies.
Breakfast 2 oat bran cookies and ff milk, coffee
Snack puree of cauliflower.
Lunch was wonderful french toast with turkey bacon, with cinnamon and splenda. So good
Will have pork tenderloin (with shallots, touch of cherry dash of Bragg’s) and steak (marinated in 1/2 teaspoon Pickapepper and 1 Tablespoon of balsamic) for supper.
I am trying to have less yogurt. I read ahead about the new PP day in the next phase of this diet.
Here is an updated Cookie recipe.

Great advise, Kath about the not starving yourself! I’m going to have to search your posts for the french toast recipe… you’re eating much more exciting foods than me 🙂
those cookies sound good – are they crispy or chewy when baked?
Ive just found the sunshine souffle recipe – how do you turn it into french toast please? this would be a brilliant breakfast option for me on a weekend.
To make french toast, slice it the best you can. Dip pieces into beaten egg. dukan fry it (my slices are more like puzzle pieces than bread )fry all sides. I gather the crumbs and fry those. Serve with turkey bacon cinnamon and sf sweetner.
Just found your blog — love your site & definitely want to try some of the recipes you’ve posted! Congrats on your weight loss thus far… 🙂
