Aside from my accidental dry roasted edamame cheat and a bowl of cabbage, I have stuck to this diet 100% for what has now been 16 days. Yesterday I tried out a new hair salon and while I was waiting for my stylist, I was offered a complimentary glass of wine. I grudgingly turned that one down. But today... it was a good friend's birthday brunch at my favorite buffet place that comes with unlimited champagne, my weakness. So I ate a big Dukan approved diet breakfast prior to heading out and convinced myself that I would just drink coffee. I even walked the buffet line trying to convince myself to have an early cheat meal. Come on, enchiladas, sweet potato chips, unlimited guacamole, the most amazing desserts... I'm not sure how but I stuck with coffee. I am at 123 (at least last time I weighed) and I don't want to delay my goal of 120 longer than I have to. Plus, my first celebration meal is scheduled for 7/15, less than two weeks away. I am still debating what to do for my first celebration meal. I'm thinking date night with the hubby.
I've been having a problem of not wanting to eat much of anything lately. I don't really feel burned out, just not hungry! Actually, I could pretty much live the rest of my life without eating any more tofu, but I've been that way long before this diet. I keep having to force myself to have some yogurt or cottage cheese, or a big glass of milk. One of my fav snacks lately has been a tub of 0% plain Greek yogurt with 2 tablespoons of sugar free jelly, and a packet of stevia. Tastes just like sugary yogurt. I'm going to try making a tofu scramble today or tomorrow. And yesterday I made some "quesadillas" with the egg white/dry milk pancakes and fat free cheese. Not bad, but definitely didn't fix my Mexican food cravings. I've pretty much been living off those pancakes. And I've just been eating oat bran dry.
I don't have any other social events planned in the next two weeks, so I shouldn't have to worry about any more temptation :)
