    How funny! I am starting that, too. It's not the same thing, it's called "Dukan Diet" but it's based on the same principles. I hope I am strong enough to survive the first couple of days! Any ideas on how to tweak MFP totals?
  • I've heard of the Dukan "diet"....You'll have to keep Me up to date on how it works out for You. I'm new to this site so I really can't elaborate on it; however, I think it's going to be pretty good. It seems as if Everyone here so far is really nice and helpful. Add Me as a friend if You'd like :):smile:

    I will keep everyone posted on Dukan diet... as soon as I learn more about it! I started it today... basically no veggies, no fruit or carbs for a few days. Just proteins and fat free dairy!
    More soon!

    Good luck ! I'm now on my 2nd week :) I've lost 7 lbs. so far. I may stay on induction for 2 more weeks if I can. I admit, I've slipped a little here and there but I compensate through workout. And I agree, Zumba is fantastic! A better burn than walking I think.
