My Dukan Attack phase was short lived.
About two days in....TOM showed up 3 days early. The more I work on my diet, the crazier my cycles become. I want to blame menopause but people keep telling me that 41 is too young for that.
I lost half of a pound and then I stalled. The combination of no coffee, wine, chocolate and TOM was too much for my family so my husband begged me to stop and have a drink.
I'm only kind of kidding.
I stopped the diet but kept up the higher protein because I actually liked how I was feeling on the diet. I just added a few carbs and a glass of wine a night.
I'm happy to report that as of this morning, I'm down 2.8 pounds! My pants are feeling looser and I have lots of energy.
So.....I'm going to keep on keeping on. Mostly high protein with some carbs and wine here and there.
My husband is happy because he threatened not to take me on Vacation at the end of the month if I stayed on the diet. He doesn't want to deal with my eating restrictions at Disney Land and while visiting his very overweight family.
I don't want to go without wine while visiting his very overweight family.
Have I told you that I'm addicted to the Dukan Pancakes? OH MY GOSH! I love them.
I'll post my version with a picture tomorrow.

Do You Dukan?
I had to make a decision yesterday.
I was making our menu plan and grocery list for the next two weeks and I had to decide if I wanted to try the latest diet that I've never tried before.
Okay....there might be a couple other diets out there that I've never tried. Jenny Craig being one of them.
My friend is on the Dukan Diet and having great success. The only problem is....she seems to be miserable.
I'm a glutton for punishment. So why not!
I'm going to give it a trial run. Three weeks.
At the end of that three weeks I'll decide if I get to cheat on my daughters birthday....and stop. Or keep going.
The good news is that we're getting closer and closer to spring and then I'll be able to walk outside again. You have no idea how much I'm looking forward to that!
