I've decided to switch to the Cruise Phase now... because I miss veggies!!! Weird, I know.
"In this phase of the Dukan Diet, days of protein only are alternated with days of protein and vegetables. The types of vegetables allowed in this phase are limited to those that do not contain starch such as lettuce, spinach, celery, cucumber, asparagus and tomato. Vegetables can be consumed raw, steamed, or in soups and stews.
This phase is followed until you reach your target weight. Dieters can expect to lose up to two pounds a week on this phase."
I am going to do 2 PP days and 2 PV days instead of just one and one.
What I ate:
9 am: 1 cup greek yogurt
1.5 tbs of oat bran
2 pm: 6 oz grilled chicken breasts
2 light laughing cow cheese
1/2 cup of fat free cottage cheese
3 pm: 2 oz of jack cheese
7 pm: Jason Deli's salad bar (estimated):
2 cups of spring mix
3 cups of fresh spinach
.25 cup of red onion
6 tbs of ranch dressing :(
.5 cups of fresh mushrooms
1 cup of broccoli sprouts
8 kalamata olives
3 green olives
2 oz of feta cheese
1 oz of shredded cheddar cheese
.5 cups of shredded jack cheeses
Calories: 1805 Protein: 123 g Fat: 110 g Net Carbs: 48 g (10.4 g from oat bran) Sodium: 3804 mg
So I guess not too bad... The fat is a little high so I need to stop eating ranch and full fat cheeses. I am not surprised that I didn't lose any weight. Still at a 9.2 lb lost total. Hope tomorrow I lose some!!
You're doing such a good job! Well done! :)
ReplyDeleteHey LizzyBeth :) Don't forget that when you start eating veggies again that you still have protein as the main focus of the meal, or at least a lot of protein....and like you pointed out, watch out for all of that cheese! :P
ReplyDeleteGood job so far hon xo
Hey LizzyBeth, how are you going? Haven't heard from you in a while?? xo
ReplyDeleteWell done Lizzy Beth.
ReplyDeleteI love Ranch and we can't get it here - probably a good thing because when I visited my brother in the States last year I would go to the shops and but loads of celery and ranch dressing and scoff it all. The weird thing is that you can't get table celery here either, only soup celery which is thinner and not crunchy.
Hope your Cruise is going well.

ReplyDeleteFOR BEST INFORMATION ABOUT DUKAN DIET.
Jennifer Aniston and Madonna are talking about it so it must be good! The Zone is so last year, the diet craze to hit the celebrity world this year is Dr Dukan’s Diet. It has hit the world by a storm, and has to work if it’s created by a doctor, a French doctor. The French have kept its methods a secret for years, we all wondered why the French look so slim and toned, it’s not because they only lived on snail legs and olive oil, and it’s all thanks to Dr Dukan. It is the ultimate diet that consists entirely of protein for the first three days before fruit and vegetables can be introduced. With its very strict first phase Dr Dukan promises us that we can lose up to 6 pounds in the first week. Ladies that is impressive and enables us to fit in to that black dress for the party on Monday. Because of its effective first stage results are seen immediately. Guess the Italian on Wednesday needs to be cancelled …. Living without carbs for a week can’t be too difficult can it….???
