Hi Hanna,
could you give me the recipe for the protal cheescake you mentioned, the one you use gelatin. What is f-f? fat free?

I’m not the biggest fan of quark but looooove the fromage frais and use it for cheescakes or cold desert made of f-f, eggs, sweetener and gelatin (yum!). Anyway, I learnt I can live without pasta, bread and chocolate, so I can as well live without cheese. Good luck once again.

Ah, my bad, I read the calories as grams on the website listing… I think I need to get glasses or something…

Well if you love cheese you can have quark… that one is 0% and actually tastes nice – great for cheesecakes and stuff.

Which Babybels do you eat then? On Sainsbury’s website, the lightest ones are 12g fat in 100g. I only looked because I love cheese and that’s one thing I really miss in the diet. Sausage and Philadelphia aren’t desirable products either for pure protal. I am not criticizing, just pointing out that someone looking for examples of the diet menu will be confused seeing what you’re eating.
Anyway, keep it up! Hopefully you’ll reach your perfect weight soon.

I agree that babybells are not core dukan, but the light ones are 6g fat / 100g which is 6%, not 15%… again note the difference between what I post as recipes and what as a food diary.

I think Jerry is right. I just googled the Dukan diet, looking for some extra tips and found this website. And what did strike me was the Babybel cheese… Even the light version has about 15% fat in 100g. Dukan allows dairy up to 5%. Cheese is definitely forbidden.

So good luck, carry on with your diet – it is obviously working for you but this is not Protal – the Dr Dukan diet. A little statement about this would be useful for people looking for answers on Google.

Well if you haven’t noticed, I’m TRYING to be on the Dukan diet. I do not claim to perform a controlled experiment and I never told anyone to follow what I eat. I’m only human and I have better and worst days.

I’d be interested to know what actually you think is so NOT Protal that you expect a special disclaimer…

What you are doing here is misleading people.

Please stop calling this Protal, the food you are eating here is NOT the Pierre Dukan diet and is simply misleading people, there are people who are trying to follow the diet and if they try to follow the diet the way you are doing it they are going to be completely mislead!

You should post a story explaining that what you are doing is YOUR diet, not Dukan.
