This will be my last example diet day as my systems for Dukaning are up and running now. There is considerable organisation and food preparation to be successful on this diet. To finish this week, I have a PP day on the CRUISE diet.
Measure out 1.25 litres of water to drink in the morning, and 1.25 l for the afternoon.
Take vitamin capsule.
Black coffee no sugar.
Breakfast 8.30am
200 ml of forme yoghurt
When next hungry 10am
3 oatbran muffins
White coffee with natvia
11 am black coffee
Finish first bottle of water by noon.
When next hungry have lunch 1.15 pm
Hot smoked salmon and Dukan mayonaise
When next hungry 4.30 pm
meatballs
2 cups herbal tea with Natvia
5.30 pm
meatballs
Black tea with Natvia
Finish second 1.25 L bottle of water by 6pm
7.30 Dinner
Altamtic salmon fillet with Dukan mayo
9.00
Yoghurt 200ml
7.30 dinner
2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
Dry fried Atlantic Salmon (seasoned with lemon pepper) and served with Dukan mayo.
Supper Yoghurt
4 sugar free marshmallows
Slim tea.
Note that this was Easter Sunday. I did not have any chocolate, nor did I crave any either. I admit, I did avoid being near any hot cross buns as their smell is normally too tempting.
In general, I feel well, energised and balanced. It is a diet that suits me and my chemistry well. By the end of 7 days, I had dropped 3.5 kilos, feel more myself and am already over a third of the way there. I am quite comfortable that I can continue the cruising process for another 6-8 weeks to lose the weight.
I am an Australian fan of the Dukan Diet and I have some time to try out some of the recipes (with modifications for the Australian context and what I have in my stores), take photos (sadly missing in the diet books) and get my family's opinion. If you decide to try Dukan for yourself, please remember to first discuss with your GP.

Turkey meatloaf
Page 74 of Recipe book
I found some turkey mince at the shop so I thought I would have a go at this recipe for a Saturday lunch. The recipe calls for turkey breast which you mince , but this was an Ingham product with 9% fat and it had the Heart foundation tick...

I put 500 g turkey mince, 1 large onion (finely chopped) and a rounded teaspoon each of ground cumin, dried basil, mixed herbs, paprika and ginger in a bowl with a light shake of lite salt, black pepper, 6 eggs and 2 tablespoons White wings cornflour (maize, not wheat). I then used the dough hook on my hand held mixer and combined the mixture.
Do you think I could find my loaf tin? No way! I had three pyrex mini loaf tubs and used those instead. A quick grind of pepper to top and popped it into the 180C oven for 25 min. The meat looked cooked, but the egg was still runny on the side, so back in for another 10 mins and the egg was solid and browning. Nice. I let it cool for about 30 min before serving.

(You can see the spill on the left from the first check at 25 min, it was still very runny and needed an extra 10 mins).
We had it with a basil-rich garden salad dressed with Vegetable Boullon Vinaigrette (page 160 of diet book, see next entry) which worked well together.

Peter really liked it and gave it a 10/10, but he was very hungry at the time. Dan thought it a bit boring and gave it a 4.6/10. I thought it was good and easy to make with not too many dishes, so an 8.5 from me.
