Dukan Diet: Sample Menu for Phase Stabilization

If you got this far I congratulate you! This means that a huge milestone reached!

 

In this last phase, the rules are simple:

 

Throughout the week you can eat whatever you want and once a week you eat only proteins such as during the “attack”. You can choose any day of the week, but Dukan recommended on Thursday, because it is generally less busy day, guests without the cravings weekend or Monday, but it can also be any other day.

 

It ‘important to sports, but it is not necessary to become suddenly a fierce fan of the gym, if you do not do enough sports to keep you active during the day, use the stairs instead of the elevator and take a walk instead of driving.

 

The stabilization phase is also planned to eat more oat bran, as it helps digestion and reduces the amount of calories absorbed from food. In addition, not to be underestimated is the fact that the bran swells in the stomach so you feel more satisfied for much longer.

 

And if I were to increase a few pounds? Do not expect to earn too much, just blocks everything with only two days of protein and you’re done!

This phase begins once you’ve reached your ideal weight and should last for 10 days for every pound lost.

Will be introduced wholemeal bread (no more than two slices per day), potatoes, cheese, pasta, rice (no more than twice a week) and twice a week is allowed a delicious dinner with almost anything you want to eat … Yes, can be pizza or French fries and ice cream, provided that:

 

- The day after you return to the stage “attack”

 

- Do not make two dinners “free” in a row

 

- Never do it again the same dish.

 

The key thing of this phase, to be sure not to gain weight is to keep one day a week with just protein and nothing else as being in “attack” (es.il Thursday).

 

We say that the news of this phase are:

 

1. You can eat a serving of fruit per day: an apple, two kiwis, two ripe apricots, a large slice of watermelon and so on. The forbidden fruits are: bananas, grapes and cherries.

 

2. You can eat two slices of bread a day.

 

3. You can eat 40 grams of cheese per day.

 

4. Every week you can eat two servings of carbohydrates like pasta, rice and potatoes.

The Dukan diet

Best die planThe creator of the Dukan diet is precisely Dr. Pierre Dukan, the diet is based primarily on a first phase called “attack” where you must eat only protein, meat, fish, eggs, bran and nothing else, where the weight loss is very fast and a second phase “soft” where you can add, on alternate days of simple starchy vegetables. To be clear in the Dukan diet … nothing but corn and potatoes in green vegetables like lettuce, celery, asparagus and zucchini, these are the two phases that make up the Dukan diet.

 

During the next step you should keep a food aimed at exchanging queens the two phases of the diet and therefore alternate between two days of “coupling” with two more days “soft” in which you add the vegetables and salad.

 

Finally there is the last phase, which is to be maintained forever, and is to follow these three simple rules, but non-negotiable:

 

1. Consume 3 tablespoons of oat bran a day.

 

2. Can exercise more and take all the ways to do it without going to the gym … always choose to take the stairs whenever possible!

 

3. Keep the “attack phase” where you only eat protein, one day a week (eg every Thursday).

 

On vacation are also granted the protein and the green salad, potatoes, pasta or rice no to, but you can treat yourself to a little ‘cheese, a piece of fruit, a glass of wine and two slices of bread every day.

 

With the Dukan diet you end up eating chicken breast, chicken breast and chicken breast! No pasta, pizza, chips and bread … I mean it takes courage!
