Day 5: Not doing well.....

I started off well, as reported in a previous blog I had lost 2lb by Friday and when I checked on Saturday morning that had increased to 4lb.  So far, so thrilled.  We were taking my OH mother out for dinner on Saturday night, but I wasn't worried as a) we were going to the Harvester, so I could stick to flame grilled meat b) I was going to drive and therefore sidestep the drinking of alcohol (strictly prohibited!!). 

OH has promised that he will be supportive of my Dukan quest to lose many, many lubs.  He knows how down I am about the way I look right now and wants me to get to a happier place.  As we were getting changed ready to leave, I informed OH that I wouldnt' be drinking - cue a fully loaded ladle of guilt in the form of 'but it's only one night out, blah, blah, blah' to which I replied 'that's not being very supportive'.  Cue a mini strop from him followed by me agreeing to have one glass of wine with dinner (aaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrhhhhh - what is WRONG with me!!). 

Anyway, I didn't stick to my one glass of wine (of course......).  I didn't drink the normal amount for a Saturday night out, but I shouldn't have had any!  The next morning I felt awful, both in body and mind.  I felt totally mad with myself and hopped on the scales sunday morning - 2lb back on.  Grrrrrrr.

I was straight back to utter saintlyness yesterday, but by my weigh-in this morning it was obvious the damage was done - another 1lb on :o(.  So I've been on this diet for 5 days and I've lost a total of 1lb...........

Still, I know why and that is why I've been a perfect model of Dukan-goodness all day. 

Breakfast - one slice turkey bacon, 2 scrambled eggs
Lunch - Salmon fillet cooked with herbs, cottage cheese and yoghurt
Others - coffee with skimmed milk
Dinner - ??  Not sure yet - probably steak with a sauce of some kind made with mustard and yoghurt followed by an Oat Bran pancake.

The only thing I'm struggling with is trying to get down the required amount of water - need to get better at that.
