There is a thread for Dukan diet that has some posts on it. I tried it, but was to able to stick with it once I had to start once again cooking for my family. But, the two weeks I was on it, were very good. I am now on my own modified diet where I am not eating PP and PV but I am aware of carbs and I try not to eat them as…

I use the Weider 90% soy protein - for a fake latte I mix the protein powder with skim milk powder and sugar free flavored syrup (Carmel is my current fave) mix it with a cup of strong coffee in a magic bullet and I am ready to go...

Sounds great - thanks for sharing

that recipe sounds amazing - I had an off Dukan day today...but I will back on track tomorrow - its the wine with supper and beer at football games that are killing me

I know - last night I had scrambled eggs (3 egg whites and 1 egg yolk) with smoked salmon and chives...it was so gourmet I didn't fel like I was dieting at all.

I started Dukan on August 3rd - did really well the first week - then went to a conference for 5 days and had a hard time following the diet - but I only gained 2 lbs and they came off right away the next week. Last weekend was a Dukan disaster - too much going on. I am finding it a little more difficult now that I have to…

I am 52 and have only been on DD for a couple of weeks - tomorrow is my first weigh in after starting cruise phase - so far except for when I was at a conference for a week, this has been the easiest diet ever - and I have been on a LOT of diets.

WOW Claremarie198 - that is fantastic! Thanks for the inspiration.:happy:

No, but I love protein! I am usually pretty close to 1200 calories per day - depending on the day. I did find on days that I ate chicken or fish as my main meal it was much harder to get in the calories. Cruise doesn't really change the calories much as you are just adding in veggies - so if anything your calories may go…

So far I have lost a bald eagle and I need to lose an automobile tire and then another bald eagle and 2 guinea pigs - which will mean that I will have lost an elephants heart! I really like the idea of picturing that tire - very visual image! thanks for posting the list.

thanks pkw58 - I weighed in today and that 5 day conference plus a weekend of company (and me giving up) cost me +3 lbs. But...yesterday was a better day (cheated with some cheese) and today will be even better.

I just got back from a 5 day conference and then had company for the entire weekend - I started out well at the conference, but by the end I caved and was eating anything and everything. I weigh myself on Tuesdays so tomorrow might be a frustrating day - but starting today I am going back on Attact phase for three days to…

I just finished my first 6 days on the cruise - I didn't follow it very well as I had a few social engagements, but I still lost another 3 lbs. That means that so far I lost 7 lbs on the attack and 3 lbs on cruise for a total of 10 lbs in 12 days. I know this pace will not continue, but I am very happy with this start. My…

For me the key is the spreading it with a little Fat Free Cream Cheese! I made one last night with cocoa powder and a little Splenda - it was good - not great - but good. I can see getting a little tired of the pancake after a while so I will need to find other ways to incorporate the oat bran.

I weighed myself today after 6 days on Attack - I am down 7 lbs! I have to add in though, I was doing a landscaping project that burned a lot of calories (moved 11 cubic yards of rock from a bed in the front of the house to the side of the house, by shovel, pail and wheel-barrow). But even with that, 7 lbs is amazing. I am…

I make mine with cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, vanilla extract, and a little Splenda. When it is done I spread Fat Free Cream Cheese on it. I alao made a couple ahead of time and then popped them in the toaster-oven a couple of minutes to heat and crisp up and again spread them with fat free cream cheese - this is my mid…

thanks I will weigh tomorrow and see what I have lost - that will be after 4 days on attack.

Hello all - I just started the Attack phase yesterday - I love protein so I am hoping I can stick to this. I am going to be on this phase for 5 - 6 days. I have just booked a trip to Mexico for November 3rd - so really hoping to lose some significant weight before then. I am not sure how much to expect (I never seem to…

Dr. Bernstein clinics are, first off, really expensive - but they do work - you eat a really restricted diet and you have to go in three times a week for vitamin B shots. You also have to pee in a cup and take that in three times a week - they can tell if you have 'cheated' with extra carbs when they test your urine. You…

I too have fallen off and on the diet wagon so to speak - I was doing really well before Christmas hit and I just haven't managed to get back on track. I find it much harder now to lose weight - but I still remember how fat I lost it when I was on the Dr. Bernstein diet - of course I gained it all back and then some - but…
