Low calories, high carb diet?
hi everyone. i have been on the dukan diet for a month now and lost 5kg. i have always found that i lost the most weight (and sustained that) on very low carb, hi protein food programme. If I allow myself any lee-way, i tend to fall off the wagon. I am on a protein day and am doing ok. I made the mistake of eating carbs (marshmallows) on Friday and paid the price by putting on .5 kg! Scary how the body reacts to even tiny changes. Anyone else taken this route? Long term I will introduce the basics back in (the consolidation phase) but right now am in the cruise phase (1 day protein, 1 day protein veg). I also keep a calorie counter to keep track of my eating so that I am below the RDI for my weight. I haven't had chocolate etc in a month! I feel better for it. I also exercise a lot : I run, play squash and do pilates. But my body seems to be stuck at 90.1 and has vacilated between 89.1 and 90.1 since Friday. Am getting frustrated. sob sob Crying or Very sad
