Dukan Diet--Day 25--PP day


This morning, my weight reminded the same as yesterday: 68.8kg.
Somehow, I felt gladful because of the hugh over 1 pound vege and meat mix. This is a really good result out the big dinner I had yesterday.

Today, Mr.X has an training be held at his work place. I was planning to go shopping today so I went there with him and waited him at the lobby.

We went to the Metrotown Metropolic mall for shopping the sauce pan and an coffee cup.

He ended have a nice midium rose-orange color stainless steel cup with the capacity of around 300ml coffee. This is a really good deal comparing to the normal consumption of 1 to 2 cups of coffee at the Starbucks or any coffee shop. We bought the Ethic organic coffee at The Costco half month ago, it was on sale at the time. for 2 pounds of coffee bean it only cost 12 dollars. Even if he drinks 1 huge cup of espresso a day, the beans will last for almost a month. He didn't have a cup which can be carry on with him on his way to work so he always have the cup of coffee at midnight when he backs from his work.

He can go straight to bed after swallowing the 300ml espresso, he is just that wired.


Brunch:
1 hard boiled egg white.
60g nonfat cottage cheese
120g lean ham, water boiled.


Dinner:
400g Ling cod and rock sole baked with
130g defrozend midium firm tofu,

Dukan Diet Day 23--PP day


Good news!!!!
This morning, the number on the scale is 68.95.
Should I say again or DA-La? because this number has been on the scale once 4 days ago. Anyway, It is back, isn't it?

2 spicied egg white.
50g nonfat cottage cheese
100g lean ham

1 spicied egg white,
30g lean ham.

Dinner:
250g Skillet oven fried Chinese style beef heart,with
140g defrozened midium firm tofu(bad choice)
1 oat bran palette made with 3 egg white.
2/3 preserved duck egg
1 hard boiled egg white.
The above didn't eat in the same time.

2.5 L pure water

2hrs walking with Mr.X.





It seens like that the rainning days will be back to Vancouver tomorrow and will last for at least 5 days. Too sad, we are planning to go a vineyard to pick up some fresh Oct grapes for the last wine.

The blueberry wine which was made in the old fashioned way: only fruit with no added yeast and other adjusment ingredients, is now matured at our small leftover bottle. Thanks to the patient Mr.X gives to waiting, it finaly has the time to reach it full taste. As I could say, it is better than the bottled wines and much better than those made from juice and concentrations and other added ingredient. I have to admit that it has never been oaked or whatever-ed. It just delicious. Not smooth as those you can buy at the store but with the super wild and stronge back after it flows down your throat.

Of course I didn't drink any of the blueberry wines, I am on dieting. Mr.X is almost wanting to drawn in the wine, he can not let it go when I finaly permitted his drinking, half glass a day. I just hope that he will obey my order.

My blueberry wine is made from fresh picked blueberries. I crushed them by using the hand immersion blender, a wonderful tool. After a long 2 and half month fermitation, It finally juiced by triper double layer cheese cloth. Every drop is preciou.

I will post the picture of my blueberry wine tomorrow, although there is only one bottle left already. I made only 3 bottles proximatly 3.2L wine from all the blueberries we had picked.

It worth it.

Dukan Diet--Recipe of Chinese Style Oven Fried Pork Tongue


I just made this yesterday and it was sooooooo delicious. I am not sure whether it is suitable for any other people besides Asian people because it is very much spicy and hot. But hi, friend, why not give youself a try to the new discover?!

Preparation before real cook:
Any tongue( pork, calf, beef, you name them)
Wash throughly with flow water.
Boil water in a deep pan or pot,the water should can cover the tongue.
Let the tongue set in the boiling water and cook for 10 to 15min.
Remove the tongue from the boiling water and wash with cold running water until its surface cooled down to be handle.
Use knife to brush off the white membrane surface of the tongue, as clean as you can.
Now the tongue has been prepared.


Cook method:
Cut the tongue to desire slices( 0.2cm to 0.5cm thick)
Marinate with : (a pinch salt, 1 tablespoon light soy sauce, 2 clove minced garlic, 1/6 medium red onion minced, minced fresh garlic-clove sized ginger, 2 pinchs of cumin seeds.2 pinchs of crushed dry red hot chili)  for 4-5 hours.
Preheat oven to 350F
Cut garlic stems into 1 inch long sticks, with cutted red onion and 2 hot green chili pepper.
Slice the defrozened firm tofu into 0.2 cm thick slice. ( Before using, just put the tofu in the frige at the frozen part for 1 day then defrozen it, you will have a very chewable cheese like firm puffy tofu )
Lay the tongue and the above cutted veggies on the cast iron skillet.
Cover the skillet with foli paper and cook for 40min.


Enjoy it. Be cautioned that it is sooooo hot. Even for me who comes from the place that having hot chili every meal.

I forgot to take the pictures but I will update it in the future when I make this dish again. It will not be too far....

Dukan Diet, Day 20, PP day


Saddly, this morning the number appeared on my scale was 69.35. Although it was still 0.1 kg down of the day before yesterday, it has raised 0.4kg up from yesterday. This probably because of the huge eggplant I had ate yesterday and all the light soy sauce I put on the fish before serving.


Breakfast:
1 hard boiled egg white,
120g Lilydare cooked turkey breast.
60g nonfat cottage cheese.

Lunch:
100g skim milk jello

Dinner:
70g Lilydare cooked turkey breast,
2 preserved duck egg,
200g pan fried pork liver.


2.5L pure water.

3hr slow walk go and back from shopping.

This afternoon, Vancouver has faced an power outrage. It started at around 1500 finaly ended at around 2000. It was pretty scared when you stay at home and the light is off the sunlight is turnning dark. Somehow, the shops on the main road are all well powered without any interupt.

I had checked the website of BC Hydro. It updated resorted time postponed from 1700to 1730 to 1830 to1930. Finaly when the lights are suddenly on, all the peace mind back to me. However, before the lights return, I had beinged 2 preserved duck eggs and 60g turkey breast. I was just so starving after such a long walk with the desperite of having no warm food on hand.

It is not usual to have a power outrage at Vancouver especially that it is because of the " wile down".

Hope that I will see a happy number tomorrow.
