I remembered my lunch today! Very enjoyable too - turkey & spinach leaves with cucumber and boiled eggs washed down with yogurt. I only had time for a yogurt this morning for breakfast so made sure I have had a good tea. Forgot to get anything out last night to defrost for today so managed to quickly defrost a chicken breast. Combined with a recipe for tikka sauce and dry fried served with a couple of thin galettes and pickles on the side it was almost like a takeaway! A girl can pretend right?
For tomorrow I've made Turkey timbales (turkey layered with savoury yogurt sauce and baked in a bain marie in the oven). They look nice but will report after it's been eaten lol.
Need to make sure I get out some more chicken for tomorrow's tea. Have stuck to the diet religiously and am really pleased with myself. Have noticed the scales haven't moved for a few days so might have a couple of days off weighing then I'm less likely to get disheartened.
Really busy with uni work and to be honest am not sure when I'm going to get chance to do it all! Looks like the old 'rota' will be coming back out for housework etc.... will see how long it works!
Off to finish my cuppa and have another early night (you must think I'm about 80 the way I go on but a girl needs her beauty sleep!)

Day 8 in the Dukan house...
So tired! Had a busy day yesterday with an early night followed by an early morning. First day of placement today so the stress/worry/excitement combined with tiredness made me forget my carefully prepared lunch! Had it all ready and everything! Stuck to the diet though and bought a packet of chicken breast and some ham washed down with a bottle of water *polishes halo*.
Have had a stinking headache all day though so I'll be having an early night again. Have cooked my turkey for tomorrow so will finish making lunch tomorrow (P&V day tomorrow so am looking forward to that!)
Had mustard chicken for tea. Chicken thighs smothered in Dijon mustard and thyme, steam baked in the oven then topped with a mixture of yogurt, oil, salt & pepper - was delicious! Turkey and red pepper for lunch tomorrow... need to check what's for tea ;-)
Anyway, off for another early night. Might be able to update better by the end of the week xxx
