What a nice thing to discover as I puruse the intertubes as a way to wind down after the pairings were announced on Strictly!!!<br /><br />I don't know a thing about the Dukan diet, but have seen the book. It was cellophaned shut. I was wondering whether the contents might have been censor-worthy.<br /><br />*pops open the Pringles and waits to hear about the excitement of the new diet*<br /><br />So glad that you're back!<br /><br />Ali xAlison Crosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06565962059926865121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1360091480233165032.post-73139449032143763722011-09-08T22:17:22.535+01:002011-09-08T22:17:22.535+01:00I have the Dukan Diet book on my bedside table, bu...I have the Dukan Diet book on my bedside table, but I am yet to find the 'right time' to start...I keep thinking if I put it under my pillow I'll lose the 5 kilos I need to overnight.<br /><br />Delusional is not the word.<br /><br />Helena xxAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02658858373848443540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1360091480233165032.post-13171637473193764282011-09-08T13:16:26.527+01:002011-09-08T13:16:26.527+01:00Good luck!

I must say I think I felt calmer, less anxious that I was missing things. <br /><br />I have also neglected my blog badly and it is something I love but sometimes I feel by the time I write a post I'm bored with it, if that makes sense- I too will be endeavouring to do more blogging- I hope you can because I really enjoy your writing style.<br /><br />With regards to boresome diets I do agree about my fitness pal- it sort of scolds you- though it's quite easy to just not tell it about the odd latte/ glass of wine- what it doesn't know won't hurt it! <br /><br />My friend did Dukan, I think it works but she did have to just eat pieces of fish whenever we went out and of course it didn't last because no diets do- it is a cruel truth that desk jobs do not think people makeRosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08459305021803770946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1360091480233165032.post-63062431060640664862011-09-06T18:00:52.114+01:002011-09-06T18:00:52.114+01:00Thank you; so glad to see a new post.

I have a couple of friends who've done very well with Dukan, but it is very hardcore. I'll definitely look out Dr Zermati (Mr Trefusis can help me with the tricky bits - his french is very much better than mine)<br />And Sally, My Fitness Pal sounds very much worth a look - again, thank you for bringing it to my attention. <br />I'm a hopeless dieter really: As Oscar Wilde said, 'I can resist anything except temptation'. ;)Helen Brocklebankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04572008161376510229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1360091480233165032.post-80541650878949857072011-09-06T12:41:28.344+01:002011-09-06T12:41:28.344+01:00Mrs Trefusis

Please continue to Tweet (and blog for that matter)<br /><br />Regarding the *ahem* avoirdupoids, may I recommend something I have found to be invaluable (with which I have no affiliation incidentally: just personal experience)?<br /><br />My Fitness Pal dot com is a free website which will calculate your daily intake of calories for loss. You then fill in the online food diary from a database which contains every food/brand you could want (it is updated by site users]. This lets you eat ANYTHING so long as you don't go over your allowance. You can also log exercise calories earned.<br /><br />It is very much like WW in this regard but no faddy points calculating.<br /><br />It is sensible and it works. You don't have to be involved in the "online community" whatnot if you want to stay private. <br /><br />Dukan strikes me as too fussy and not a normal way to eat but I make no judgment on your choice. Chacun a son regime!Sallyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00103403783736720899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1360091480233165032.post-44629220318507309712011-09-06T11:29:46.100+01:002011-09-06T11:29:46.100+01:00Dear Mrs T., I come occasionally to your blog beca...Dear Mrs T., I come occasionally to your blog because I really like your writing, but rarely comment. I don't feel the need. But reading about your intention of doing the Dukan (aka Dukon in France) thing, I am very surprised. He has just lost in a key trial in France http://tempsreel.nouvelobs.com/actualite/societe/20110705.OBS6505/proces-dukan-jean-michel-cohen-a-gagne.html and has been shown to be a money-motivated conman giving out dangerous advice. His "method" has also been discredited and proven to be useless in the medium to long term. And it really beats me how anyone could contemplate eating only crab sticks, slices of ham and lean chicken for a main meal for days on end. I saw my sister attempt it, then give up after a couple of weeks, and it was simply gag-inducing. If you read French, I recommend books written by Dr Zermati. Very enlightening.<br />My apologies for the unsollicited advice, I just hate intelligent women getting dragged into what I see as pernicious nonsense.sabelnoreply@blogger.com
