protein. The vegetables that one can consume during the cruise phase are rather limited. Some vegetables contain a good amount of carbohydrates, therefore, they are prohibited. Most green vegetables are allowed such as asparagus, celery and green beans. A dieter can be in this phase for a prolonged period of time, even months, depending on the amount of weight one wants/needs to lose.
The third phase of the Dukan Diet is the consolidation phase and it lasts 10 days per kilogram lost. One cannot enter this phase until the target weight is reached. It prepares the dieter to go back to a balanced diet while staying at the new weight. There is a little freedom, however, it is monitored and there is a strong emphasis on maintaining the target weight. All of the weight lost is still very vulnerable and if not careful, it is quite easy to pack the pounds or stones back on. During this phase there are two festive meals (or celebration meals) included to promote a gradual return to food that is desired. Fruit, cheese and bread can now be consumed in moderation.
Each day, the dieter is allowed one fruit but they should be watery fruits (i.e. apples and cantaloupe). Two slice of whole-grain bread can be eaten each day as well. During this phase, the dieter is only allowed one single serving of carbohydrates each week and one festive meal each week. This phase is a crucial time between extreme weight-loss and maintaining the weight-loss. Weight-loss is not to be expected during this phase, it is strictly reintroducing a balanced diet to the participant.
The fourth phase is the last phase and it is the stabilization phase. This phase is the most important because a majority of dieters put lost weight back on after dieting. The dieter should use the phase 3 diet as a platform for choosing foods. To ensure keeping the weight off, one should follow the rule of having a day of strictly protein consumption each week. Some say that it is during this phase that the dieter can return to eating any type of food.
However, this is the number one mistake made by those who complete a diet. If the dieter goes back to old eating habits, the weight will likely creep up and pile on with time. It is during this phase that the dieter should proceed with caution and still watch what is consumed. As mentioned, the previous three phases should be used and considered when making food choices. It is beneficial and advantageous for the dieter to continue exercising as well.
The chosen foods for this diet are called, “The Dukan Diet 100 Eat As Much As You Want Foods.” This list of foods includes meat, poultry, fish, seafood, eggs, dairy products, vegetables and vegetable proteins.

Chapter 4- Dukan Attack- Phase One Explained
The Dukan diet is a four step program that helps you eat right and lose unwanted weight. The program was originally created By French Physician Pierre Dukan for obese individuals to help them rapidly lose weight. The diet gained attention in France where over five million people lost weight. Now the Dukan has arrived in the United States, with the support of big celebrities who vouch for how they also lost a great deal of weight on this diet. It is a high protein, low calorie diet that will have you dropping at least a pound a day.
There have been thousands of claims that most have lost as much as 10 lbs. during the duration of the attack phase. The first step to the new you is the Dukan attack, it's the first phase of the process. This is not to be confused with the whole course of the diet. The attack phase is the first step, followed by the Cruise Phase, Consolidation Phase and the last and final stage which is called the Stabilization stage. While each stage differs, I will focus solely on the attack phase which is the most important stage of the diet.
During this phase you can choose from 72 different types of foods to eat. All of these foods are high in protein, low in fat, calories, and carbohydrates. The good thing about this list is that it consists of mostly meats and seafood, so if you are a fan of either of this group of food you will love this diet. You can eat as much as you want as long as you stick to this group of foods. However, there is one key to this phase that you must remember. You are allowed to eat 1 1/2 teaspoon of oat wheat bran a day. This oat bran helps you feel full as you go through this attack phase of the diet. Some examples of the types of foods you can eat are: lean beef, veal, rabbit, fish, seafood, eggs, and low fat dairy products. You are allowed to eat them in any combination you choose, but only from this group.
Spices and herbs are allowed to season your food. You can also add things such as lemon, zest and garlic to your meats and fish. Whatever tickles your taste buds and keeps you on the steady road to success. It is also recommended that the meats and fish eaten are roasted or grilled to prevent the foods from fattening up. You could continue this part of the attack phase from 5 to 10 days; it solely depends on how much weight you want to lose.
There are also many recipes out there that could help you mix up the combinations of foods so that you won't get bored just eating the same thing all of the time. And if you should have a severe sugar craving, things such as fat free yogurt or even sugarless jello would definitely help ease the craving. After a while you will get so use to eating those types of things you will find yourself thinking cinnamon roll what? Healthy eating stops becoming a priority once you realize how amazing it is for your body.
Now when it comes to consuming drinks it is a bit different from your assorted options from the food section. While you may have plenty of options to pick from when it comes to food, you do not have many items to pick from when it comes to your beverages. Everyone knows the healthiest thing to drink is water and that is the main item you have as an option. You are required to consume 1.5 quarts of water a day. You may add coffee or tea as well but that is counted as part of the amount of water you are supposed to consume. Including a mixture of coffee or tea helps those who are not as use to drinking as much water, have something else to pick from. This is very important because water is an important nutrient to your body and not only helps keep you hydrated but it helps speed up your metabolism and helps you digest the food better. Also one has to remember that you are not allowed to put sugar in your coffee or tea. So if you are one of those individuals who have to have their coffee or tea sweetened, then it is best to just stick to water.
There are little to no side effects from this diet. You could experience constipation, and or bath breath. However, these things can be prevented by chewing some sugar free gum or eating the 1 1/12 teaspoon of oat wheat bran which contains fiber.
As for exercise, there is no requirement to exercise during this diet. However, since you are consuming high protein, low fat, and low calorie foods, exercise could help increase your weight loss during the attack phase and increase muscle, a small twenty minute walk has never hurt anyone.
Some may wonder how healthy this diet is for you. Well when you look at the foods that you do consume, they are low in fat, high in protein and low in calories. You are cutting out all of the things that are bad for you and taking in the things that are good for you. As you continue through the phases you will eventually add things in such as fruits and vegetables. This phase to help you cut out all of the unhealthy eating habits and start eating what is better for you while helping you lose a lot of weight during the process.
It is very important that you stick to the regimen that is laid out perfectly for you to follow. One mistake could lead you to start over completely. Even the creator himself stated that it is like sticking a needle into a balloon, once you have disrupted the diet, you jump off track. The key to losing the weight that desire is to stay on track.
