So, let's move on to the steps in which the Ducan diet is divided. There are 4 of them. More about each.

Stage number 1 called "Attack"

By name, it can be understood that we are going to attack those extra pounds, causing their rapid and significant loss. This is the shortest and most progressive period on Dr. Ducan's diet. Its duration is calculated as follows:

If the extra 5 kg or less - "Attack" will last a few days.

Do you have 5-10 pounds extra? Then we will attack kilograms for 3-5 days.

If more than 10 kg is extra, the internship will be delayed by 5-7 days, well, a maximum of 10.

During this period, you can only eat protein: meat, fish, low-fat dairy and eggs. In all that time, up to 6 kg of weight can pass without much effort.

Now more about those products with which we are going to attack weight.

You can eat:

Any lean meat: veal, rabbit, beef, horse meat (all meat except spare ribs and fileshki), rabbit. Pork and lamb are taboo! Prepared without an ounce of oil.

Liver, kidneys, lungs - any beef, veal, poultry offal, as well as the tip of an ox tongue.

Any bird except duck and goose must be skinless.

Skinless ham with 2 to 4% fat content.

Any fish, regardless of cooking method.

Seafood.

Eggs but no more than 2 yolks, whites can be unlimited. If you have high cholesterol levels, reduce your yolk intake to 3-4 a week.

Low-fat dairy products. You can also powdered milk with 0% fat, but no more than 3 tbsp. me. In one day.

It's worth cooking all this without adding oil and fat, you can eat whenever you want, as much as you like, no calorie counting.

Some foods should be eaten in moderation:

• coffee and teas;
• vinegar and soy sauce;
• Any vegetables, cumin seeds, no more than one and a half onions per day and other spices;

• Mono-oil can be used as paraffin oil (1 tablespoon. l. ), as it is not high in calories, it involves the intestine, allowing it to normalize its work, and the stool improves. Do not use for frying, do not heat, preferably - salad dressing.

In any case, it is imperative:

Eat 1, 5 tbsp. me. oat bran daily.

Light gymnastics and daily 20-minute walks.

Drink 2 liters of water (tea, coffee counts).

If you get a bad taste in your mouth, don't worry about the bad smell, this is an absolutely acceptable phenomenon and indicates that you are on the right path. You can proceed to the second stage.

Stage 2 - Alternation or Cruise

This stage lasts until the arrow on the scale shows the desired ideal figure. The peculiarity of this period is that the protein days alternate with the vegetable-protein days.

Pierre Ducan's diet offers the option of independent alternation - 1/1, 2/2 or 5/5. For people who are very overweight, it is advisable to adhere to the 5/5 regimen, for those who are slightly overweight, 1/1 is ideal, so it will be easier for the body and for you.

List of prohibited vegetables (starch and beyond):

Avocados, all pulses, non-green beans, peas, corn, potatoes, lentils, olives and olives, and all kinds of cereals and pastas. Artichoke has not yet been identified in any product group, so its use should be minimized.

All other vegetables can be, only carrots and beets should be consumed in small amounts as they contain sugar. For variety, you can include 1 tablespoon in your diet. me. tomato paste (ketchup) as well as 0% yogurt with fruit.

For cooking, you can use all the products from the "Attack" phase, which should be consumed in moderation.

The innovations are as follows:

Bran now we eat 2 tbsp. me. In one day.

If necessary, an Art. wheat bran helps with constipation.

Dairy foods should not weigh more than 1 kg, control this.

Water has the same 2 liters.

And now you need to walk for at least half an hour.

Thanks to the alternation of proteins with vegetables, it will normalize the metabolism, water will leave the body, eliminating toxins, toxins, fat and salt. As soon as you notice that the arrow on the scale has become the estimated number, proceed to the step called "Consolidation".

Step number 3 - "Consolidation" or "Ensuring weight"

This phase will help you to consolidate the results obtained and will last based on the lost kg. That is, if you lost 5 kg in the second stage, the Consolidation will last 50 days, 10 kg - 100 days and so on. It happens for a lost kilo of 10 days of the 3rd stage.

After going through the previous two stages, do you want variety and something new? You are welcome! Now you can buy 40 grams of hard cheese that contains no more than 40% dry matter fat. The lower the % fat, the more cheese you can eat.

You can also eat a few slices of rye bread, a unit of fruit (except bananas, cherries, cherries and grapes) and a few slices of watermelon or cantaloupe.

As for meat, you can now eat fried pork, bacon and lamb in any quantity.

And a few more bonuses: you can now support yourself on a serving of starchy vegetables once a week, as well as organize a "stomach feast", which allows you to eat any first, second and dessert (an appetizer - a glass of wine with cheese). But all this must be eaten at once, for breakfast or lunch.

Now let's divide the entire step in half. For example, you must keep the consolidation for 80 days. The first part - 40 days: You can eat a portion of starch and a "party" a week, but for the next 40 days you can party and eat starch a few times a week.

What do we mean by starch? Here is the list and the amount allowed for consumption:

• Pasta. Can be consumed at around 220 gr. season with natural tomato paste with onion, or crush with a little Parmesan cheese.
• Whole wheat, as well as couscous and bulgur wheat are allowed in the amount of 200 gr.

• Beans, peas and chickpeas are very nutritious, and you can also eat some of them.
• Rice and potatoes should be eaten very rarely, in small portions of 125 grams each (the potatoes should be in your uniform). Brown rice can be consumed in the amount of 220 grams.

What not to do:

Organize two banquets in a row

demand a supplement - have a sense of proportion

Choose for yourself a day of the week, so to speak, a protein flush, so that all the excess calories can go away easily and that this day is always the same, for example - Thursday.

Bran now needs to be consumed up to 2. 5 tbsp. me. a day and walk for at least 25 minutes a day.

Step 4 - "Stabilization"

Well, now we come to the final phase called "Stabilization".

There are some rules, adhering to which you will not gain weight throughout your life, the main thing is just follow them.

Eat as before, but with control over the amount of food. Better more proteins and vegetables, don't overdo it with fruits, cheese, bread and starchy foods.
