    The dukan diet can be very effective, as long as you follow it strictly. Its a great starting point, just remember that carbless is NOT a long term solution. Dukan diet actually introduces carbs into your diet over time, so it's a pretty good program imo.

    Just remember: for the first week of no carb, you are gonna feel like you have no energy and will probably struggle to workout.

    Bump what? Im not advertising anything. The dukan diet is a European diet plan that has been making its way to the States lately. You can google it if you like. Just wanted to see if there were other out there..thats all..Not an advertisement..!!!!

    I'm intersted in the DD. I actually don't even like carbs all that much, so a low carb/no carb diet is something i am interested in learning about. i'll be searching for that thread later.

    when mccgivens wrote 'bump' they were just posting something to add it to their list of topics so they can find it later as well as to keep it near the top of the posts so more people will see it and comment. wasn't meant as an insult or a jab at your op (original post)

    Hee hee! Learning webspeak is never easy - still struggle with it myself. An interesting thread - I'm not doing full-on Dukan but have picked up recipes from his book as part of my low carb lifestyle. I am tempted to do an attack phase though just to jumpstart my weight loss again.

    AMEN! Seems like everyday, there's a new phrase, abbreviation, etc. Sometimes I can figure it out, but most times I have no clue. I didn't get 'smh' for the longest time. Had to look it up. It means "shaking my head". I swear there needs to be a RosettaStone for webspeak! ;)
