Pierre Dukan
the years I have tried many diets, We all know that dieting is really willpower to leave alone the foods that make you put on weight, I wanted to lose aboutlbs as I don't really look over weight I just prefer to feel slimmer, I bought the book out of curiousity really as my sister lived in France and I don't remember seeing a slim woman in the area that she lived in!!! Anyway, I started the and diet once I got the gist of it as I decided that I could read the book as I went along.
Seven days on the diet and I have lost six and a half pounds so I am thrilled!! I haven't found it hard to stick to at all and am rarely hungry.
I had a bit of a blip one day as I didn't feel well at all, To cut a boring story short I visited the doc and explained everything and she said I could carry on with the diet but if I felt poorly again whilst on the diet to go back to see her.
Low blood sugar might have been the problem that day not confirmed but I would say that Diabetics should be very careful and consult the doc first before starting this diet.
Overall, this is a very informative book and it worked for me so it could work for you, Most diets tell you to change your eating habits and this is no exception but it has made me face up to the fact that I will have to be good and not eat too many sweet items choc oh no! too often.
REMMBER!! IF I CAN DO IT SO CAN YOU!!!!!I am adding this p, s. about the oat bran. I disagree with the lady who said it was awful, One and a half tabespoons isgrams and it is better to weigh it as I wasn't having enough by spooning it.
I simmer it ina pan with either milk or water for about five minutes on a low heat, I love it because it reminds me of my childhood, When I was little my mum used to make something called 'gruel' if I wasn't well and it reminds me of that.
Very comforting!!Two weeks on and I have lost NINE AND A HALF POUNDS!!!!! I am so pleased, I wasn't fat to start with but I feel so much better, I know the pounds have crept on slowly and were not that noticable but to me it is well worth the effort of addressing the problem.
I have got into the habit of eating the way the book says and I no longer crave sweet things the same as I did.
I still like them but only have a proper dessert on a Saturday, Duing the week I have had strawberries and blueberries with plain yoghurt, Very satisfying. I did make a mistake earlier in my review, The one and ahalf tablespoons of oat bran which I said wasgrams should have been approx,grams but is still plenty when combined with the water and simmered, Even so, I still lost the weight havinggrams!!!!!My blip with feeling unwell has never returned, I put this down to my body having a shock because of no sweet things being eaten!!! To sum up I would say give this diet a go!!! Very interesting book, that explains many things about weight and diets.
The diet works, but I don't know yet what happens at the end of the four phases, An easy diet, however, you're not hungry, full of energy and not nervous which is a great feeling! We did the Dukan diet for two years and loststones each.
Easy to follow and no health issues, Slightly concerned about the amount of protein we were eating and we have now moved onto the:Fast diet to keep healthy as we get older!! Devised by Dr.
Pierre Dukan, a French medical doctor who has spent his career helping people to lose weight, the Dukan Diet rejects counting calories and promises permanent weight loss while allowing adherents to eat as much as they like.
Originally published in, the Dukan Diet swept across France, championed by people who successfully lost weight following its unique four phase regime.
The Dukan Diet has helped millions in France, where ithas been number one for than ten years and adopted in twenty countries, including the United Kingdom, Poland, Korea and Brazil.
All together, The Dukan Diet has sold thanmillion copies worldwide,
The Diet:Easy Steps to Permanent Weight Loss
Phase one: Attack
Using Dr, Dukan's True Weight calculator, dieters determine a reasonable and healthy weight loss goal, Then they begin the Dukan Attack phase a two to seven day period during which only unlimited lean protein and a daily Oat bran galette or pancake are consumed and dramatic weight loss is achieved.
Phase Two: Cruise
Dieters alternate days of unlimited lean protein with days of protein combined with healthful vegetables until they reach their True Weight.
Phase Three: Consolidation
Dieters stay on this phase fordays for every pound lost, At this point the diet allows unlimited protein and vegetables, and other foods such as cheese and bread are reintroduced, Dieters are also allowed two weekly celebration meals to stave off boredom,
Phase Four: Stabilization
This is the maintenance portion of the plan, in which followers are allowed to eat whatever they like without regaining weight provided that they followunbreakable rules including eating only unlimited lean protein one set day per week.
For each phase, The Dukan Diet offers clear simple guidelines for long term success, The Dukan Diet is the perfect diet for people who want fast weight loss, that can be maintained without counting calories or weighing portions.
I am a yo yo dieter which is extremely unhealthy, I lose weight and as soon as I stop dieting the weight goes back again, I do this lose and gain game for almostyears now, When it comes to diet I always did it the traditional way : eat less and loads of exercise, Two years ago I stepped on the scale and, once again, decided to diet again, I did what I normally do cut down on sugar, fats, carbs and just eat less calories and sensibly started working outtimes a week.
After a month i stepped on the scale again and i was horrified to learn that i BARELY lost any weightas a matter of fact all i lost waslb.
So I made a few tweaks on my diet lesser carbs and work outstimes a week again when it came to weight myself again the scale did not move.
I did measure myself as well as people would say muscles weight than fat but the measuring tape did not show significant change either.
Last year i went to full exercise mode and worked out hardtimes a week nothing happened nothing changed, There was an inch or two loss around my waist but nothing drastic and certainly didn't feel like it was worth what I was doing.
I went to see the doctor who did a blood test but the result showed normal functioning, I kind of stopped the active exercising around last year Christmas and I let myself indulge on yummy festive foods, January came and the new years resolutions with the i swear I will lose them lbs for good promise to myself, I accidentally found an article about the Dukan diet and it sounded interesting, I have read about Atkin diet before but it never seemed appealing to me, I did my researches and read the book i did some researches and I though I would give it a go, The firstdays were the hardest I missed sugar and carbs and i felt light headed on the second day but I did not feel hungry thanks for the allowance to have as much food as i can.
On the first week i lost,kg. I am on my cruise phase only and so far I am very satisfied with the result, I don't feel hungry and the meals a completely satisfying and filling, I do have to use my imagination when creating food but as time passes I am and creative, The reason I am giving this book/dietstar is because of the amount of time i have to spend in the kitchen is MORE than I have ever spent in my life.
The other slight problem is the cost you have to plan your weekly
meals well ahead before you buy your grocery as this diet is not the cheapest one and you can easily spend than usual.
Although this book is primarily written for women, this is a great diet for men too, As others have pointed out, there are similarities with the Atkins diet, especially at the start, where you eat only protein, however it is healthier as unlike Atkins, you are not allowed to eat food high in fat, cheese, cream, butter etc.
Like any diet you really need to stick to it, The attack phase, the first phase will get results, depending on how overweight you are, you'll lose several pounds in only a few days without going hungryWith the diet you need to follow the daily walks that he includes as part of the diet.
You start withminutes everyday, This is too conservative for me, I walkedhour everyday, either in one block orxminutes,xminutes etc, This really adds to the great results, It really is a case of move it if you want to lose it, How well is this diet known now Everyone heard about the Dukan diet, and a lo of people are trying it regularly.
What is important with this diet is to follow all rules that come with it, If you are not well aware of how this works, you will not get the results you are seeking, and you will even take the risk to make your situation worst.
If you plan starting this diet, buy this book, It is simply written and good to read, Everything is well explained and you learn a lot about why you have to eat this way during this diet, Don't jump into a diet without having all the information about it in advance, Especially for this diet, it is very agressive and it not well followed, can lead you to the wrong way, Reading it gives you the motivation you need as well to continue it, You feel like you are not alone as everyday you read and learn about the period you are going through, I would then definitely recommend this book if you are planning to correctly follow your diet and change your habits, This will lead you to a new life and you will be healthier and learn about your own body, ce livre se retrouve en Inde chez mon ami bonne réception de l'article pour le reste je pense que mon ami était content car in a perdu du poids!!!! This may be one of the most dangerous diets ever created.
The results: skyrocketing weight loss, but mostly from muscles, It's impossible to lose all this weight from fat, It is too quick and ketogenic diets very often end up with losses from lean muscle mass, Stay away Great diet for meat lovers! However if you are not a devoted carnivore you might find this diet difficult to stick to.
What follows reflects my own experience and opinion of the diet, I am not too interested in the for or against Dukan battle.
First I'd like to Le seul régime qui marche vraiment, à la condition de bien le suivre et de ne pas l'abandonner complètement.
Il ne faut pas oublier que TOUT passage à une alimentation malsaine entraine une prise de poids, Très bon livre, bien écrit et expliqué, Je ne vois pas Already have this on my Kindle, but bought a hard copy so I could flick back and forth.
Difficult to do on Kindle, I love the Dukan diet, I'm a carnivore and this diet just works for me, I lost heaps of weight the first time then immediately gave up smoking fed my cravings with lots of junk and failed to follow the consolidation and stabilisation steps so weight piled back on.
My own fault. Now I'm back on Dukan, have lost weight and bought this hard copy so I could easily read follow consolidation and stabilisation.
Seven days on the diet and I have lost six and a half pounds so I am thrilled!! I haven't found it hard to stick to at all and am rarely hungry.
