Lose weight the French way | Herald Sun - StumbleUpon Attack phase ... Protein like meat and fish is the focus of the first stage of the Dukan Diet. Source: The Sunday Telegraph HAVE you ever wondered why most French women appear to be effortlessly slim? When French nutritionist Dr Pierre Dukan introduced his Dukan Diet there 10 years ago, the book rushed to the top of the French bestseller list and spawned a dieting revolution. Today, more than 1.5 million French women swear by its dramatic and long-lasting results. Politicians, film stars and high-profile models, including Gisele Bündchen and Jennifer Lopez, live the Dukan life, all of them seduced by its promise of permanent slenderness while eating what you like. The basic rules The Dukan Diet starts with a short Attack phase, where you eat nothing but protein – just meat, fish, eggs and non-fat dairy products. This is the kick-start that gives you the initial impetus and sets the tone for the other phases. After one to 10 days in the Attack phase, dieters move on to the Cruise phase.

17 pounds in two weeks, without much effort by kalima on Lose 10 pounds on 43 Things Breakfast is truly the most important meal of the day; not in food amount, but because it’s the first food intake, it defines how you start your day. Now, when you write that your stomach feels awful, what do you mean exactly? Are you hungry? Do you feel stomach ache? I remember that the first 3 days were difficult because the change was pretty radical from my previous morning habits. So my advice is to take a solid breakfast, it doesn’t have to be exactly like mine (2 eggs, 2 slices of bacon, 1 tomato, 1 piece of cheese, some hazelnuts), but I think you should have proteins (eggs+bacon), some moderate fat(cheese+bacon), fibers (tomato) and a small treat (nuts). I don’t drink coffee, sometimes tea, and sometimes milk. When you’re out of phase 1, you can add a couple fruits, like an apple or an orange. Finally, to answer your question about low-fat fruit yogurt, yes it has too much sugar. By the way, most low-fat products replace fat with sugar.
