Dr. Ducan's diet is based on the consumption of protein foods, which are easily absorbed by the body and help to lose weight. At the same time the body is cleansed, all toxins and toxins are eliminated, metabolism is excellent. The main diet products are meat, fish, vegetables and, most importantly, bran. The most attractive and compelling is the length of the diet, it depends on the number of kilograms of excess weight, the time it takes them to go, and the characteristics of your body.
Before starting a Ducan diet, it is worth knowing your optimal weight, which you should strive for. This can be done through services that are easy to find on the Internet. You will be able to enter all the necessary parameters (current weight, desired weight, weight loss attempts, height, pregnancy, etc. ) and get a number for your ideal weight. As you can see, everything is individual. In addition, you will receive a "ruler" that will help you follow the diet gradually: each stage will be calculated according to the duration and weight loss, which will very easily control the duration of weight loss.
So, let's move on to the stages where the Ducan diet is broken down. There are 4. More of each.
Stage 1 entitled "Attack"
From the name it can be understood that we will attack the extra pounds, provoking their rapid and significant loss. This is the shortest and most advanced period of Dr. Ducan's diet. Its duration is calculated as follows:
- If excess 5 kg or less - "Attack" will last a couple of days.
- Gained 5-10 extra pounds? Then we will attack in kilograms for 3-5 days.
- If there is more than 10 kg in addition, then the stage is delayed for 5-7 days, well, a maximum of 10.
During this period you can eat only protein: meat, fish, low-fat dairy products and eggs. All this time up to 6 kg of weight can be done without much effort.
Now more on the products we use to attack weight.
You can eat:
- Any lean meat: veal, rabbits, beef, horse meat (all meat except entrecote and fileshki), rabbits. Pork and lamb are taboo! Prepared without a gram of oil.
- Liver, kidneys, lungs - any beef, veal, poultry offal, as well as the tip of the tongue of beef.
- All birds except duck and goose must be skinless.
- Skinless ham with a fat content of 2 to 4 percent.
- Any fish, regardless of cooking method.
- Seafood.
- Eggs, but not more than 2 yolks, whites can be unlimited. If you have high cholesterol, reduce the amount of yolk to 3-4 per week.
- Low fat dairy products. You can also milk powder 0% fat, but not more than 3 tbsp. l. day.
It's all worth cooking without adding oil and fat, you can eat whenever you want, as much as you want, calorie counting doesn't happen.
Some foods should be consumed in moderation:
- coffee and any tea;
- vinegar and soy sauce;
- any greens, cumin seeds, no more than one and a half onions per day and other spices;
- gelatin, baking powder, yeast and agar-agar;
- a pair of pumpkin can be used as a spice;
- lemon juice for making sauce;
- salt and mustard - very little, otherwise the excess water will not leave the body;
- zero calorie sugar substitutes (excluding fructose, glucose and sorbitol);
- dietetic beverages;
- you can eat 8 crab sticks;
- mono oil can be used as paraffin oil (1 tbsp. l. ) because it is low in calories, it surrounds the intestines, allowing it to normalize work, and stool improves. Do not use for frying, do not heat, ideally - salad dressing.
In any case, it is mandatory:
- Eat 1, 5 tbsp. k. l. oat bran a day.
- Light exercise and daily 20-minute walk.
- Drink 2 liters of water (tea, coffee count).
If you have a bad taste in your mouth, do not worry about a bad smell, it is absolutely acceptable and indicates that you are on the right track. You can move on to the second stage.
Stage 2 - change or cruise
This step lasts until the scale arrow shows the desired, optimal number. The peculiarity of this period is that the protein days alternate with the protein and vegetable days.
Pierre Ducan's diet offers a choice of independent change - 1/1, 2/2 or 5/5. For overweight people, it is recommended to follow the 5/5 scheme, for those with a slight excess, 1/1 is optimal, so it will be easier for your body and you.
List of prohibited vegetables (starchy and not only):
Avocados, all legumes, green beans, peas, corn, potatoes, lentils, olives and olives, as well as all kinds of cereals and pasta. Artichoke has not yet been identified in any of the product groups, so its use should be kept to a minimum.
All other vegetables can be, only carrots and beets should be eaten in small quantities because they contain sugar. You can include 1 tablespoon in your diet to change. l. tomato paste (ketchup), as well as 0% yogurt with fruit.
You can use all the products from the attack stage to cook, which should be eaten in moderation.
The innovations are as follows:
- Bran now we eat 2 eats. k. l. day.
- If necessary, one Art. l. wheat bran will help against constipation.
- Dairy food should be no more than 1 kg, control it.
- Water is the same 2 liters.
- And now you have to go at least half an hour.
Thanks to protein changes with vegetables, you will allow to normalize metabolism, water will leave the body, removing toxins, toxins, fats and salt. As soon as you notice that the arrow on the scales has become a cherished number, you should move on to a stage called "Consolidation".
Step 3 - "Consolidation" or "Weight Consolidation"
This step will help you consolidate the results and will last based on the kg lost. That is, if in the second stage you lost 5 kg, then the consolidation will last 50 days, 10 kg - 100 days, and so on. It turns out to be one kilogram lost in the 10 days of stage 3.
Have you gone through the previous two stages, or do you want diversity and something new? You are welcome! You can now afford 40 grams of hard cheese that contains no more than 40% fat in the dry matter. The lower the fat content, the more you can eat cheese.
You can also have a couple of slices of rye bread, one unit of fruit (except bananas, cherries, cherries and grapes) and a couple of slices of watermelon or melon.
As for meat, you can now eat fried pork, bacon and lamb in any quantity.
And a few more bonuses: now once a week you can rely on a portion of starchy vegetables, as well as arrange a "belly meal", which allows you to eat any first, second and dessert (aperitif - a glass of wine with cheese). But all this should be eaten in one sitting, breakfast or lunch.
Now let's split the whole stage in half. For example, you must follow the consolidation for 80 days. The first part - 40 days: you can have one serving of starch and one "feast" a week, but for the next 40 days you can feast 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. They can be eaten for about 220 gr. sauce with natural tomato paste with onions or grind with a little Parmesan cheese.
- Whole grain wheat, as well as couscous and wheat bulgur and allowed 200 gr.
- Lenses. It can be 200-220 grams, it helps to stabilize the weight due to the slow carbohydrate content.
- Beans, peas and chickpeas are very nutritious, and you may also have some of them.
- Rice and potatoes should be eaten very rarely, in small portions of 125 grams (potatoes should be in uniforms). Whole-grain rice can be consumed in quantities of 220 grams.
What not to do:
- hold two celebrations in a row
- request a supplement - there is a sense of proportion
Choose yourself one day a week, so to speak, unloading protein, so that all the extra calories can be easily lost and let this day always be the same, for example, Thursday.
Bran should now be eaten to 2, 5 eat. k. l. per day and walk for at least 25 minutes a day.
Step 4 - "Stabilization"
Well, now we come to the last stage called "Stabilization".
There are some rules by which you will not gain weight for life, the main thing is just to follow them.
- Eat as before, but controlling the amount of food. Better more protein and vegetables, do not overwhelm it with foods containing fruit, cheese, bread and starch.
- Stay true to one day of protein fasting and the weight will never return.
- Water not less than 2 liters.
- Take a walk for at least 20 minutes every day.
- Walk more, forget about elevators, escalators and, if you can, sooner / later get off the minibus to the bus stop and go home / work. Check if it works!
