Sorry about my absence yesterday, I had a shower to go to and I didn't get home until late, I had a licensing exam to take this morning so I chose to neglect the internet and study up.
I havent weighed myself since the hiccup I had. I started fresh this morning on pure protein. Attack phase take 2. On top of that it's about to be my time of the month i can feel it. and I'm craving bad. But I can do this.
For breakfast this morning I had a little bit of vanilla 0 fat chobani, just like 2 tbsp, and I mixed it with my 1.5 tbsp of oat bran. I actually like the texture a lot it's like that cereal yogurt Activia used to make. I decided to go shopping after my exam for some proteins, so I got more pain yogurt, some beef cubes to make skewers tonight, some stirfry beef I made for lunch, I also got some thin chicken and some ground turkey. So far so good.
This summer is full of parties and functions I have to go to, and I hate going because I hate how I look, That's sad, but I plan on using it as motivation for this diet to work. I can't wait to start seeing results but I'm a far cry off the that.
Tonight is my favorite night for television so that means I need to go and be active since I plan on sitting around on my carcass from 8 pm until I go to sleep.
Hoope evryone is having a wonderful day and success along the way. Remember, Just for today.

Lunch
My take on Chinese chicken
2 thin chicken breasts
About half tbsp Dijon mustard
3 tbsp low sodium soy sauce
1.5 tbsp low sodium low sugar teriyaki sauce
2 tbsp plain nonfat Greek yogurt
3 tbsp chopped garlic
-- mixed all together and placed bite sized chicken in to marinate (I only did about 10 minutes an the flavor is strong)
-- cooked over medium heat until all sauce reduced and chicken was cooked through. About 10 minutes
I have a sinking feeling this would be great with tofu too.
Regression
Morning, Happy Saturday everyone.
Well, I know I said I would post again when I got home last night but I was so exhausted when I got home I just decided to skip it. I'm totally bummed out. I just weighed myself. 187.2. Thats an increase from Thursday. It really proves that no matter what the slip up is, it really affects you.
I can't believe I let myself eat that piece of pizza. Who knew that one piece of pizza could really do that much damage. I'll never make that mistake again.
Today is the surprise party at the habachi restaurant I love, I was planning on ordering Habachi chicken and eating just the vegetables and chicken and say forget the rice, but I guess I'll have to say forget the vegetables too since I just lengthened my attack phase :( One mistake and it royally screwed me! I really learned my lession with that one. My original plan was to stick to attack phase for 7 days, but with the weight gain I'm going to do.. 10.. god be with me!
I was reading a blog yesterday, www.undressedskeleton.tumblr.com this chick is awesome. She lost over 90 pounds the right way. She's so adorable, i'm envious. She has some awesome recipes too that when I can, I would love to try out. Everything she does is high protein low carb, and it's her lifestyle.
I need to make some proposed changes in my already changed diet, and the first is MORE MEAT PROTEINS. Dr. Dukan gave us 100 different foods, and I have been tip toeing aaround them like I don't like them, when that's not true. Me and chicken, we're meant for eachother. Turkey is my love child. Lean beef and I had a secret affair! So why am I only eating a little bit of these and filling myself with nonfat yogurt? because I'm lazy that's why. Get off your ass and cook something healthy damnit!!
For breakfast this morning I think I'll try an oatbran galette and have a HUGE bottle of water before I head to the mall for my eyebrows, where I will then stop at starbucks and have a HUGE iced coffee with a splenda and nonfat milk. I will then come home and go for a run around the block. I'll let you know how that works out.
6/20/11 ; 189.6
6/21/11 ; 189.0
6/22/11 ; 187.6
6/23/11 ; 186.0
6/25/11 ; 187.2 (kill me now)
Just for today I'll go hardcore with the Dukan

Day 5 ;(
Well. Remember my acheivemebts over the past few days? Yeah well today i achieved nothing but failure. Shame on me. I had to bring my puppy to the vet today early I didn't get. Chance to eat breakfast. I came home and had to run out shopping with my mother because she needed help stocking up for the big independence day party next week. All I had a chance to do wS shove a tsp of nonfat cottage cheese in my mouth. Three hours later we get out of the store I was so hungry I grabbed two reduced fat cheese sticks and a diet coke to ease the hunger pangs. Finally we get home and I had an appt for a mani pedi tgat I normally would have cancelled but I have two events this weekend and I couldn't put it off. The salon was overly crowded and they were running so behind it took me almost 4 hours but I had to do it. Nothing for lunch because I was not about to eat mcdonalds! I finally got home near 5 pm and I was starving. I showered but not before eating another cheese stick. Uh oh. For a quick half assed dinner i grabbed a can of tuna and put some mustard nonfat cream cheese salt pepper garlic and onion powder in it. Not that satisfying so I had a fat free sugar free pudding. Just wait this gets worse. At least up till this point I was Dukan attack friendly. The boyfriend called and needed me to come with my suv to pick something up from home depot. Ofcourse the Oreos were out on the counter so I ate 2. :-x. I get to his house and he ordered margarita pizza from my all time favorite resturant. If you're wondering if I ate it, the answer is yes. One slice.
I'm so disappointed in myself. I was almost through this attack phase. I know it's not the end of the world but I also know it set me back.
I didnt weigh myself this morning so when I weigh myself tomorrow wel see if there's a difference on the scale.
On another disappointing note I missed my oat bran yesterday and today. Maybe I'll eat it when I get home that would be good.
I'm slacking major I just realized i need to eat more protein meat like chicken breast and turkey breast and stuff. I'm getting a lot of dairy more than anything else. Granted it is all nonfat but still. I need a good seasoning for my meats. Any suggestions?
I'll post again when I get home. I typed this on my iPhone as I lay next to a snoring boyfriend. I'm hungry. Damnit. Ok kids talk to you in about an hour

Friends..
So I'm going to kind of rant a little bit, you don't have to read this but I need to get it out. This morning as I was making my new found favorite yogurt [non fat plain greek yogurt sprinkled with some non fat sugar free instant pudding mix] my friend called me. She's a great friend, honestly my only friend that I really see, I have some friends but I dont know if I would really attribute them to "friend" status as much as glorified aquantinces, but any way, she called me and she was upset [not something new]. She asked me if I wanted to meet up and go with her to a local walmart. I of course said yes. This particular friend has struggled with issues her whole life. From obesity, over eating, to alcohol and drugs. She just now is getting a hang of how to live her life without over indulging in opressive substances, be it food, pills, or booz. But now its another issue
She was rambling on and on and I'm listening my best and she said something to the tune of "and im so trying to be thin-spo..." I had no idea what that meant. "Thinspiration" oh Christ, here we go.
Now as I'm dealing with my own dieting I have to hear about thinspiration?! what is this world coming to? She starts telling me about how they have websites with pictures of nothing but a plate with a fork knife and a cigarette? really now? By this point I was craving some Reese's i know she needed to talk about how she was feeling, and I would never tell her to stop. But all that thin-spo talk was wearing me down. I normally have the patience of a saint. But today, I almost lost it on her.
Okay that rant is over. I am thinking of looking up this thin-spo stuff, see what kind of garbage she is filling her head with now.
Lunch - Just took my lunch out of the over, I took two slices of thin thin chicken breast (i hate thick chicken breast) grilled up two pieces of turkey bacon, took about two tbsp of fat free cream cheese mixed it with some garlic, salt, pepper, and poultry seasoning, slathered it on the chicken breast and topped it with the diced turkey bacon. It's actually dynamite. I wonder if I could fake this as a dinner and make my boyfriend eat it.
On the boyfriend note. Gosh I love him. He's trying to loose weight too. He's been eating healthier than before. He's lost about 20 pounds over the past few months but he's been slacking latley. Yesterday when I came clean about the dukan diet to him, he said he wanted to buckle down and stop eating junk again (he has this affinity for sour chewy candy, he can eat bags at a time) I suggested that he try to do the dukan diet with me, but he said he couldn't live on it and he also said he can't cook. He makes a point there. He lives with his father and he loves his starches. Potatoes with every meal. Boy I miss potatoes....maybe when I loose enough weight that it is noticeable he will change his mind.
Until next time
Just for today

Day 4
Ah, here I am !
Day 3 was ROUGH! I actually dreamt about italian twist sweet bread with butter. Hey fatty how are you? Yesterday was successful for the most part. I didn't cheat, but it was rough. Went to the movies, the boyfriend was hungry, he got mozzerella sticks and offered me some. I said no thank you and I decided to tell him i'm trying to eat only protein for a week as a cleanse. He was supportive but threw in the 'one mozzerella stick wont kill you' but i stuck to my guns and said no. I ate greek yogurt and 2 hard boiled eggs. Weird movie snack but it was good.
I'm down another 1.6 lbs today. 186. I know I said i wouldn't weigh myself today but I had to. Starting tomorrow morning, I will weigh myself every 2 days. so I can monitor myself but not obsess. Im proud of myself.
I'm going to try my hand at dukan baking and try and make a this pink cheesecake cupcake recipe. I'll let you know how it goes.
I'm going to check in in a few hours again. thanks for reading guys. I really appreciate it

Day 3
Good Morning everyone!
So I know I shouldn't be checking my weight everyday, but I caved (embarassed) Good news is im down another 1.4 pounds in just 1 day!! that's exciting. It's really motivating.
Yesterday I turned down so much i'm very proud of myself. My boyfriend got Dominos and I didn't eat it even when he and his father told me it was 'so good today' boy was that hard. When I got home at night I was so hungry and there were pretzels and oreos sitting on the kitchen island (anyone that knows anything about me knows my affinity for oreos. it's so bad, i could eat a box a day) I resisted them though, I settled for a handfull of fat free shredded cheddar cheese, a slice of low fat low sodium deli ham, and a sugar free jello cup. I was full, but i was really missing my oreos!
I've been looking online for some dukan friendly deserts i found some, but i'm always afraid to try them because they sweetened with sweetner like splenda. Now don't get me wrong I love splenda, but when you get into using excess amounts, upwards of a few tablespoons, the food begins to taste awful. I feel bad wasting so many ingredients that normally would have been fine to use, but the splenda ruined it. Anyone have any good dukan friendly desert recipes that they know the splenda doesn't ruin? send them my way.
The boyfriend is off work today, he wants to go see a matinee, i think i'll be okay as long as I bring some water maybe some fat free cheese with me. Today's going to be hard. I just need to keep remembering yesterdays 1.4 lb loss. Just for today.
