Yes you can with Dukan


Dukan website

I read the book, and feel great this summer.

Just a fan

The Mesquite Creek blog is not associated, affiliated in any way with Dukan, I just like it. I purchased the book with my own funds. No gain is given to the owner of this blog from Dukan.

Friday: madras shorts in navy blue purchased locally, LL Bean woman navy t-shirt, both 100% cotton, went out for snow crab legs, very messy meal

Saturday: jersey black knee length dress, 100% cotton, stretchy navy white belt, both from Target many years ago, was great for going to a watercolor museum exhibit

Sunday, white peasant blouse, and skirt both purchased from a trunk show both 100% cotton, great for church

Note: wore same shoes with a Dr Scholls for her high heel insert. As a hobby I am a bead person, I make beaded jewelry almost weekly and that is usually my accessories with simple earrings, such as ball stud earrings, hoops, gold starfish (j crew) ect.

July Fav


  • Burberry Summer for Men, I know it’s a men’s scent but I absolutely love it and wear this as my girly signature scent. I have been wearing this for several years, after Burberry daybued it in 2009. I feel ok wearing a man’s cologne with “The Preppy Handbook, 1980” saying it is ok for a girl to wear a guys scent.
  • Loreal telescoping waterproof mascara, first time to use the wand with a ball. The wand is ok but the mascara is perfect. I go swimming almost daily.
  • NYX from Ulta, lip gloss, love all the sandy rose neutrals, just love it
  • Bare Essentials foundation, loyal customer for almost 11 years
  • In a dashing mood I got a really short hair cut this past winter, and as it warmed in this early spring I was missing my ponytail option for go to hair styles; therefore, that is when I began to let my hair grow out. Now it is a 3 inch ponytail, or I do so sort of grown up braid.
  • Most reached for drink this summer is the iced coffee (zero fat, zero carbs) and or iced tea (un-sweet) so un-southern I know to drink un-sweet tea.
  • Hulu plus and Netflix both online streaming, #cantlivewithout
