A little question!

Hello!!!

I'm currently on Lipotrim (like Lighter Life) and am planning for when I come off it as I know I can't stick it out until I get to goal.
I stumbled over the Dukan diet today and have ordered the book as I love Atkins but don't want to eat high fat foods.

I was wondering about the oatbran? I can see on here that people say it's really important but why? Does this not stop you getting into Ketosis?

I reckon the attack phase will be a breeze for me- after nothing but 3 sickly shakes a day, chicken, chicken, and more chicken sounds like a dream!!
 
The oatbran dosent stop ketosis. It helps move things along and fills you up.

Also nice to have something to make things with (gallette, muffin, cake) that have different texture.
 
Cool thanks!
I'm getting quite excited about starting this - don't know how people only have shakes for months at a time! I'm on day 12 and starting to feel the end is nigh!
My mouth is watering at the thought of chicken tikka!
ooh and I love cottage cheese 'quiche' from Slimming world days!
 
Hey lisa and welcome to the wonderful world of dukan. Its a bit quiet on here as it always is at the weekends but you will hear from all my lovely ladies soon.
 
Thanks!!!
I've got my fingers crossed that Mr Amazon hurries up and posts my book so I can have a good read!!
 
Hey Lisa :)
oh yes the cottage cheese quiches will be a godsend - unfortunately I got really sick of them lol.
and the oatbran also helps the fat come out of your body! very important.
best of luck :D
 
and of course the cottage cheese has to be the very very low fat variety!
 
Is that tesco healthy living? I don't know of anything lower?
Can you have the onion and chive? It really adds a twang to the quiches??
 
yes the longley farm one is 0.1.
I made the cottage cheese quiche once on here but I think I was in the horrid ketosis tast in mouth and it tasted bitter and off :(
 
Where do you get the lonely farm one? Never heard of it!
 
welcome lisa ,i swear by jo's egg custards yum yum and my concoction of cottage cheese mixed with tom's,cucumber and red onion when on a pv day of course !!!!!
 
asda sell it !!! but i think its dear for the size u get ,ive been using asds gfu !!

hope this helps !!

Thanks! I'll keep an eye out! I looove cottage cheese (I'll miss the pineapple though)
 
morrisons sell it too.
Oh i know I really miss pineapple. According to the UK dukan you can have the higher than 0.1% fat one as in the UK we struggle to get anything as low or lower. Ive had the cheese and chive tesco one and still lost.

As Jo has said on other posts, they have had to change the diet for the UK as fat free items are not as easy to get.
 
Boo hiss uk! We want to be thin too!!
 
it still works here though!!:D
 
50% dearer? Ouch! Oh well...it's worth it!
 
asds's gfu is 1 pound for a big tub !!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
My only worry is that as I'm already in ketosis but also on a vlcd that my body might go mad an I start putting on weight!
