Do a google search, heaps of site that explain how it works, I know all of you guys know this basic info, but I was on Youtube and found some videos of Dr. Dukan explaining the diet. I LOVE his accent. :) (especially the way he says 'oat bran' and 'vegetables') Attack: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ds6W_X7K0BE&NR=1…

Anyone bought the recipe book? I tried the cheesecake one, and they looked good upon cooking but flattened to dried out square pancakes as soon as they started to cool! Help!!

Hi all, Great to see so many on here! I just stumbble across this diet from a friend, downloaded the book and then hey presto! A bit about me, 26, male obv hehe, heaviest 110kgs dieted sucessfully this year down to 70.2kg - let things slide and 8 weeks later the scales are tipping at 80kg!! So loving this plan and the fact…

Yay for some more Keto's!! Add me as a friend! I have tried Keto a few times but never last more than I few weeks, I hit my goal weight of around 72kg's and about 2.5 weeks in then I have the biggest carb cravings! The Dr has told me I need to focus on making this diet work as I have digestive issues that resolve…

If you using one for cardio burn yes they are very handy and quite aqurate. I bought a Bruer one - German design! don't get over sold on fancy add on's that you will never use! you need the watch and a chest strap (pref water proof if you might fancy swimming or running in rain) I'd get one which can work out calories…

Hey! Just hang in there and take each day as it comes! Yes this is a fantastic site and the results show for themselves. You just have to be brutally honest with it or it'll not be an accurate picture. I lost 35lbs in 4months using this site and am still loosing slightly - im now 71.8kgs from almost 90kg! Granted some was…

Hey all, So I've come to the end of my four week journey - and what a journey I've been high, low, good days, bad days, but I've been consistent. I've learned a new way of eating and balancing my treat foods with exercise and strategic fasting. But this is not the end and for me personally setting a goal and achieving it…

Walked it out for 5 mins then pushed myself to complete the run home - totalled about 6.5km. Did 4 or 5 walks through out my working day…

Week Three Day 7 Will keep this brief had a great morning went to Bendigo and met up with the famous duo and topped up my motivation - a word neither of them believe in. Consistancy is the name of the game - you do something for a month or so everyday it becomes a habit -'I found it this week while being ill that my body…

Week Three Day Six Ok will keep today brief as it's getting rather late.

Week Three Day Five Thanks for your comments guys! Yea must admit the motivation is starting to waive this week and had a few slip ups but being I'll doesn't help and not exercising fully pays it's price. Although I look at the bigger picture i have been regularly exercising for for almost 3 months and dieting for about 4…

Cadbury caramel I chose one of the 85% cocoa varieties. Ok the health stopped there the vanilla slice, and big bag of sour cream and chives chippies sereved their role. Just ensure that the preceding meal is back on track and an extra light choice. Thinking I'll go for a jog tomorrow am but will see how I feel not much…

Week 3 Day 2 Hi all sorry for not responding yesterday. I spent the past part of the last two days laid up with a cold and IBS so no exercise. Had a complete low point yesterday and had a binge chocolate, chips and bakery goods..... I'll be honest it felt great and I didn't regret it - I felt like **** sprawled on my sofa…

Week Two Day Six Just noticed my day numbers are up ****s creek so I appologise...

Came home and it was too late and dark to do anything. I…

Week Two Day Three Ok day of no will power or motivation.... Woke up feeling sluggish and really not in the mood for a 10min run let alone a 45min run - but I though the old me would have given in a said oh "one day won't hurt" so I got out there did the 10mins and it wasn't so bad so did the remainder. Still not going to…

Week Two Day One Hope you all had a great weekend! Yesterdays day off was nice though still kept food to plan for the day - really enjoying the recipes I am trying lots of new things and new spices. Starting to feel like I have hit a plateau with weight loss but maybe it's muscle going on as some of the exercising ar…

Week One Day 6 Ok, had a night from hell sleep wise and spent most of it out of the bed! Just what I wanted before hitting my first SS!

Week One - Day Five Almost one week in and still going well! Got home and went for a 4km run abit longer than Mich requests but after yesterday's "snacks" I thought I'd do me good. Came home and did my core and fitball work out - now you wish u were a fly on the wall trying to balance on top of a ball and lift limbs of the…

Funny how Mich doesn't mention any of this in her book hehe but still forcing myself to carry on with the routine so did a Michelle's Super Shedder DVD at 6am this morning rather than a morning of squats with a bar weights. Awful weather at work today so I walked around…

Plan And did a 45min run in pouring rain - that's the JFDI attitude! Early night today need to rest up and let those muscles heal ready for tomorrows weight training sessions. Coincidentally today was the new weigh in day and I came in at 79.9 a loss of .5kg in 3 days - I can no remember the last time I was in the 70's!…
