Day 1, I know will be a tough one, despite all the preparation in my Day 0
This is the day where I will make a big change in my lifestyle. How will my body react to this?
I took the day off. I have heard from other women that cutting off carbohydrate = pulling out hair, and screaming at people.
Moreover, the office is full of Christmas goodies - minced pies, chocolates etc - you name it. There will also be lots of well meaning colleagues to warn me that high protein diets will kill my kidneys and livers.

| NO one would want to see me like this at work! |
My fridge is full - chicken breast fillet, salmon, eggs, milk, and I was preparing to raid it to stay on course.
I had a lie in, and weighed myself right after the "morning toilet" 85.4 kg. I decided to have a set time for my "minimum" weight, and thought this would be the best time.
Had a breakfast of milk and coffee, and made a modified Dukan Galette using a dash of milk instead of quark. I found that really easy. Just beat the egg with the milk. Heat the non stick frying pan. Rub it with butter ( I am cheating!) and wipe off with kitchen towel. then just pour the mixture in, swirl for an even coating. Sprinkle with oat bran. I added some pepper and a dash of soya sauce for taste.
I like to fold mine, so I fold it twice. It is surprisingly yummy! I can eat it everyday! However, that does not seem to satisfy me and I fried another egg to keep myself happy. I decided to eat whenever I want.
After breakfast, I became engrossed with a book. However, by lunch time, I was craving for carbs! I had a salmon fillet, pan fried, but still eyed hubby's cookie jar. My home is now a danger zone! So I decided to give myself a treat and went for a massage. I felt so happy and contented after the massage and then I realised, I had a big cup of GINGER TEA, sweetened! There is at least 2 tsp of sugar there, no wonder I was happy!
By late afternoon, my stomach was unhappy again, and I made myself a protein drink to replace my usual tea and biscuit ( I WANT MY BISCUITS and COOKIES!!!!!!)
I tried to sleep but could not. Whenever I close my eyes, I see this....
Managed to play some computer games to take my mind off biscuits & cookies, and made some agar agar with sweeteners. Loved my salmon for dinner, and I also had some soup made with Gallo organic stock cubes, an onion and a carrot and "fish balls" ( you can get this from Asian foodstores - protein /carb content almost identical to crabsticks recommended by Dukan, if you go for good quality fish balls, but they are more fun!). I had just a couple of fish balls with the broth and left the rest to hubby.
Still feeling ravenous, and dying to CHEW, I gobbled up ONE LITRE of agar agar cakes. Gosh. Thank goodness that these had no calories, apart from the 40 or so I added from the Ribena Light to get some taste and vitamin C.
By 10 pm, I was ready for bed. Hubby found me fast asleep on my tummy, after falling asleep while doing my "bum crunch".
I have kept a record of what I ate below...very pleased that I limited total calorie in take to 1200 and have 720 deficit!
Since 1 kg weight loss = 3500 kcal deficit, I will be able to lose 1 kg in 5 days if I keep it up!
