All about me...

Okay so the Dukan Diet website has a free personalised programme thing that you can use to work out how long you need to do each phase for and how long it will take to get to your target weight.

And here is mine...

Is the weight you wish to be your True Weight?

Your True weight is 61.5 kg. This is above the weight that you wanted, but it is a good weight, a weight that you can easily achieve and maintain. Have confidence in me about this.
If you want to calculate again your True Weight click here

By starting today you will weigh 61.5 kg on the 15/11/2011.

You'll have to follow 3 phases of my method, this means a 179 day programme to permanently stabilize your new weight.

176 days seems an awful long time doesn't it?! Eek...

The Dukan Diet

I've decided to create this blog to help me and others who are interested in the Dukan Diet. The diet that Kate Middleton made famous!

The Dukan Diet was created by food specialist Pierre Dukan who has an interest in food behaviour and it has taken the world by storm from Australia to Russia everybody is trying it. The diet is a high protein diet and consists of 4 phases...

Phase 1

This is the Attack Phase. Basically consisting of protein, protein and more protein! If it hasn't breathed then don't bother to eat it ha. This attack phase generally lasts about 10 days and you can eat as much of the protein foods you want all day.

Phase 2

The Cruise Phase is the time when you introduce roughage into your diet. You alternate between pure protein and protein and vegetable days. It is recommended that you stay in this phase for 3 days per pound you want to loose.

Phase 3

The Consolidation Phase is the best phase (I have to say!) as it allows you to cheat. Okay, we all know that it is near impossible to stay strict completely while following a diet and this allows you to cheat a little every know and again. You stay in this phase for 5 days per pound lost and you get two celebration meals per week! A-mez-ing!

Phase 4

The Stabilisation Phase...Basically to make sure you don't pile the pounds back on instantly then you need to follow these 3 simple rules...

1. Have three tablespoons of oat bran a day

2. Choose to take the stairs whenever possible

3. Have one pure protein (phase 1) day a week

Simples!! No points to count or red and green days to follow :)
