The Dukan Diet

Have you ever heard of the Dukan Diet? I have read about it the other day (sorry forgot the article's URL address) and I would like to give it a try! It is quite similar to the Atkins Diet in that it's main "principle" is to cut the intake of carbs and rely on protein but would gradually introduce fruits, veggies, and even a few carb-food later on. I read in the article that the French has adapted this diet and that they set one day a week to just eat food rich in protein. Not just taking the best protein powder, mind you, but real food that is protein-rich!

Anyways, I checked out the Dukan Diet's website but it's still in its early stage. It however gave me my "true" ideal weight after completing a form, and it pegged mine at 104.5 lbs. Hmmm. That means 5 lbs to go, hahaha. I still want my target weight though, which is 100 lbs.

I have yet to receive more info on this and the menu that's in store for me and would share this later on. In the meantime, I am scarfing down protein-rich food and minimizing my carb intake. We'll see!

depends on the scale hahaha, pero i peg myself at 5 ft 2 in.

check out the website and it will determine your "true" ideal weight based on a couple of questions. bad trip nga lang it didnt want to accept my lowest weight at 85 lbs. hahaha. so i had to tweak it at 89 lbs. maybe kaya naging 104.5 yung true ideal weight because of it. hahaha.
