DUKAN DIET

I have just begun the Dukan diet and it is going well. I am not hungry and have stopped myself grazing all evening on nuts and fruit. Also no urge for chocolate. A major achievement!

Three years ago I lost 2 stone [28 lbs] on a mixture of diets but mainly Audrey Eyton's F2 diet. But after six months my weight became stuck and I could not lose the last 14 lbs I need to lose. I tried Weight Watchers but no success in losing those last stubborn pounds.

For 2 years with great effort I maintained the 2 stone weight loss but in the last six months my weight has crept up by 10 lbs.

In the three days I have been on the diet, the amount of protein I have eaten has not exceeded the amount the MyFitnessPal website says I should consume but the carbohydrate and sugar are much less. As I eat skim milk products, I am still getting some carbohydrate and sugar.

Has anyone else had success with the Dukan diet?

    There are a few celebrity cases and I know a couple of people that did well on Dukan, which is essentially low carb low fat.
