OK everyone, one of my girlfriends Natalie has convinced me to start blogging!
I used to blog every once in awhile but am going to try and do a topic every few days. If you are extremely liberal politically, please do not follow me on here as I will simply piss you off and my point of blogging isn't to have to argue and prove idiots wrong.
If you have ideas of topics you want covered, shot them my way otherwise I will choose, life situations, current events, etc.
First blog post:
As many of you have heard from my FB page, I have started the Dukan Diet. I did the Atkin's Diet many years ago and had great success on it so I know this will work for me! This one differs in that you are choosing lean meats, cut even more carbs, and are allowed limited amounts of low-fat and fat-free dairy. You also incorporate 2 T of oat bran each day to help with er well you know, that shit that doesn't happen when you aren't eating protein!
I am getting married in December so am more focused than ever on making sure I am a pretty bride and all my bridesmaids don't outshine me :)
Here is some of the general basics on the diet: http://thedukandiet.info/dukan-diet-phase-1-menu/
Here is a great website for recipes: http://dukanitout.com/
I will let you know my success on the diet during the attack phase. I should see about 1 lb weight loss per day if I am doing it right! What is great about this diet is it gives you a great after diet maintenance plan!
I highly reccommend getting Dr. Dukan's book! http://www.amazon.com/Dukan-Diet-Steps-Weight-Forever/dp/0307887960
Also if you want to, I am creating a pinterest board with recipes on there as well. http://pinterest.com/stephanie_said/dukan-diet-friendly/
Happy Losing!
