Dukan Diet--Day 19--PV day

Yesterday morning, my weight on the scale was 68.95kg. At that time, I want to admit that my weight is always drop at the forth day of remaind the same weight for three days. Oops, this morning, this theory was broken.

I didn't have time to record yesterday, so I will catch it up this morning.


Breakfast:
1 hard boiled egg white and half york.
120g water boiled Lilydare seasoninged turkey breast.
60g nonfat cottage cheese.

Lunch:
1 hard boield egg.

Dinner:
350g Ling cod baked with 1 eggplant ( huge, over 1lbs)
No oat bran palette.
I was sooooo full so I can not think about take another palette. If so, my stomach will blow.

2.0L pure water.

1.5hrs slow walk at Stanley park. It is wonderful.
40min after dinner walk, again, I was so full. I have to have a walk before I can sit down.


The weather was awsome these recent days. Chiled sunshine. Not too low in tempreture. That would be too sad if we didn't get out to the outside, to the beautiful Vancouver autumn.

Yesterday afternoon, after a little shopping, we went to the Stanley Park at Downtown Vancouver. I choosed it for purpose. Half of the sea shore walking pathway is showered under the dawn sunlight. Smooth, gentle, golden sunlight.

Though it was very hard to find a free parking lot at downtown, but we managed to achive that. The walking is fantastic.

This morning, my weight reflect of what I have ate last night.

Dukan Diet Day 18, PP day 5

Today morning my weight is 69.45 kg. Again, this has been the third day the number of my weight remaind the same. May I expect a little drop tomorrow? Hope so.

Breakfast:
100g Lilydare cooked turkey breast, water boiled.
60g nonfat cottage cheese.

Lunch:
half piece of lean ham.
1 hard boiled egg.
1 preserved duck egg.


Dinner:
1 red corkeye fish probably 250g fish meat.
80g defrozened firm tofu
1 big oat bran palette.
4 shirmp out of the seafood fry rice I cooked for my Mr. X.

2.5L pure water.

1.5 hr slow walking at Queen Elizabeth park.

The autumn of Vancouver is just amazing, if without the endless rain. Today is another sunny autumn day. Who can resist of getting out for some activities?

We went to the Queen Elizabeth Park in Vancouver. It is around 5pm, but still there were lots of tourists. There are uphills and downhills. I suppose that it is a good exercise.

I finished my Lilydare cooked chicken breast yesterday and bring back the Lilydare cooked turkey breast along with turkey breat ham. They are both 1 kg in size. That should last for another two weeks.

Mr.X always shouting for hungery when he is do the exercise with me, just like kids. Today, he get an 200g Gadbely  almond and fruit dark chocolete as the reward. I envy him, why he keeps his weight for the recent 20 years without any change while he eat almost all the unhealth food--chips, chocolete, burgers. Hum, so unfair.

Dukan Diet Day 17, PP day 4

This morning, the number on the scale shows 69.45 KG, the same as yesterday. So I think I can expect an down jump maybe tomorrow.Somehow, I ate too much today although were pure protein.

Breakfast:
1 egg white
100g Lilydare seasoned chicken breast, water boiled
50 nonfat cottage cheese


Lunch
300g Chicken thighs pan fried without oil
80g defrozened firm tofu


Dinner(huge)
1 oat bran palette
(This time with the egg white be beaten to very firm foam. The palette turned out a moist cake. Hemmmm, not that delicious as a drier version)
400g rock sole
(Baked with onion, mushroom, hot chilli pepper, seasoned with hot red chilli sause, soy sauce. I may have eaten proximitely 40~50g onion or mushrooms or peppers.That kind of ruined the pp day.)
20g pan fried pork liver( at my friend's home)
  They are cooked with oil!!!! but they are deadly taste good.


2.0L water

2 hours of exercise go and back from the Price Mart Food.

I did the walk with Mr.X. It was very uncommon that he offered me the walk when we just getting up from the bed. Today is a sooooooo wonderful sunny day after almost 1 weeks of rainning days. It was comfe cold outside with warm and delicate sun shine. A perfect day for any exercise. On the other hand, I am almost finish my homemade yoghurt and run out of the skim milk. So, on the half of the walk which started from out of the Price mart food. Mr. X was carrieing the 4 Liter organic skim milk. Good Boy.

The organic Skim milk is almost twice of the price of the regular skim milk. $8.79CAD/4L. When I boiled the milk to make the yoghurt, the different of the quality was obviously. There is a some kind of waxy and plasticy membrane on the surface of the regular skim milk after it half cold from being boiled.However, there is no such membrane on the organic milk at all. I think I will stick to the organic milk for the rest of my life although it is such expensiver than the other. In the end, it worth it. My family is not a mega-milk-consumer. For 2 bottles a month, I think we can afford it.

On our walking, There are several cats on the road. There are more than 6 cats in one of the neighbors home. They are just adorable.I will try to post some of the pictures I took for them tomorrow because my computer can't read any SD Memory card which capacity is over 1GB. I have to wait Mr.X to email them to me after he read them on his computer.

Updated, here comes the pictures.

 This little lovely heard my meow then came out from it's home. He goes straight to my leg but with a cool face.

This one followed us for 2 blocks until I felt a little worry about being consider a "cat thief". He must love my meow a lot.






Hope number change tomorrow.

Dukan Diet Day 16, PP Day 3

My weight at this morning is 69.45kg.

So it looks like my body has this pattern that it keeps the same weight for 3 days and then followed a down jump. Which is good since this would probably the fat combine with water loss.

In my experiment, now I saved the oat bran palette for after-dinner-dessert-desire which makes me the most full. I will keep this for few circle to see how it goes.

Breakfast
1 hard boiled egg white
50g nonfat cottage cheese
100g water boiled lilydare chicken breast

Lunch
300g pan fried boneless skinless chicken thigh cocked with
80g defrozened firm tofu

Dinner
250g Ling Cod
marrinated with sea salt and ginger, slice of lime, green onion
baked with onion, 4 small hot chilli
Oat bran palette.
1 preserved duck egg.

2.5L pure water

1hour of slow walk


Yesterday on my way home from walk exercise, there is lime on sale, 10 limes for 1 CAD. They are perfect for marrinating and seasoning. I even add few drops in my oat bran palette. Just test fresh and crispy.

Now a days, my biggest enermy againest my Dukan Diet is the desire of fruit. I am not attracted by the cake or any goodies but longing for fruit is almost kill me.

When I know that the cherries and the grapes are abandoned in Dukan diet even on the consolidation phase. I am so upset. They are the two of my favorite fruits. The Okanagan region of BC has the most sweet and delicious cherries in the world. This summer, on we back home from Banff, we passed through Princton.There is a valley on the roadside are all big cherries. It is like heaven on the earth. We purchased 20lbs of cherries and I finished them all in half month. Oh, how can I get ride of it.

Hope the number on the scale will still getting less tomorrow.

By the way, my peas shoots are growing fantastic. I can not wait for the pv days then I can have a whole bunch added on my salad. Emmmmm, fresh and crisp pea shoots. I fall in love with them when we had the dinner at Chante Lake Louise. Their Crossont with lobster meat has a layer of pea shoots. The pea shoots gives the dish a irresistable flavor.

Here comes the picture of MY pea shoots.

Dukan Diet Day 15, PP day 2

This morning, the number on the scale remainded 69.75 kg. It has been the three days of the same number on my weight. Just in the pv days. I just hope that it will getting down on the fourth day as on those pv days.

Breakfast
1 and half lean ham.
50g nonfat cottage cheess.
1 egg white.

Lunch
half oat bran palette

Dinner
half oat bran palette
350g skin and bone off chicken thigh, pan fried without oil
     (marrinated with ginger, garlic, onion, basil, soy sauce, taste soooooooo good)
110g defrozened firm tofu. Pan fried with chicken thighs.
20g of dried grape.( Sigh....I just cruving for the sweet thing   and have digged the raisin out of cereal. Hope this will not ruined the whole diet. )

Liquid:
2.4L of pure boiled tapwater.

Exercise:
4 hours of walking at speed of 2.5miles/hr.

I am not a huge fan of sweet things, however, in the pp days, I always want something sweet in my mouth after a protein meal. Maybe tomorrow I will left the oat bran palette for those moment.

Dukan Diet Day 14, PP day 1

This morning, my weight remaind the same as yesterday: 69.75kg. Hope from today on, the number will get down more obviously.

Breakfast:
50g non fat dry crud cottage cheess.
1 piece of lean ham.
2 egg white.
1 preserved duck egg.( Yes, I am a traditional Chinese girl!!!)


Lunch:
1 oat bran palette. This looked so huge and satisfied.
( made by 2 tablespoon of oat bran
  2 egg white and 1 egg york plus
  3 tablespoons of homemade yoghurt,
  1/2 teaspoon of Splenda,
  1 drop of vanilla extract.)

Dinner:

250g Ling Cod marrinated with Balsamia vinger, sea salt and ginger baked with onion, ZiSu leaf, 3 small hot green chili pepper and 80g cube cutted defrozen firm tofu, seasoned with light soy sauce.I didn't eat any of the vegetables but they add a significant aroma to the fish and the tofu.

They are fantastic. I definitely will make this again and again. I am sure that my husband will love this dish very much too.

liquid: over 2.0L of pure boiled tapwater. I am thinking of add a water filter bottle to my crowed kitchen count. Hmmm, I will think about it. The drink tapwater is still pretty good with no warning from the government yet. So....

Exercise:
I walked from home to the Pricesmart food for the non fat cottage cheess. And then I realized since I always throw away the egg york which is a waste so why not go straight to the egg white then the whole eggs can leave to other dishes.The 500ml pure egg white costs only $2.99. I assume that it is just pure natural egg white. It is much cheaper than the whole egg without egg york. On the direction says 1 tablespoon can take the place of one egg white. The whole box of the egg white will be equal to 30 eggs' white. This is so eco.

This Price smart food is pretty close to the Famous food I usually go to for the organic staffs. Their nonfat cottage cheess is almost 1 dollar cheaper than the Famous food. It is even farer than the Famous food to my home.

This shopping ended with 2 hours walk at the speed of 3miles/hr. The exercise for today is qualified.

Vancouver moved into the typical autumn and winter, wet wet weeeet! Rainning rainning raaaaaining! Anyway, I will continue my walking even I have to carry an umbrella with me.

See you tomorrow, my scale.
