Step number 1 called "Attack"
From the name, we can understand that we will tackle the extra pounds, causing their rapid and significant loss. This is the shortest and most progressive period of Dr. Ducan's diet. Its duration is calculated as follows:
- If the additional 5 kg or less - "Attack" will last a few days.
- Do you have 5 to 10 extra pounds? Then we will attack the kilograms for 3-5 days.
- If there is more than 10 kg more, the step 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 the while, up to 6 kg of weight can go without much effort.
Now more on the products with which we will attack the weight.
You can eat:
- Any lean meat: veal, rabbit, beef, horse meat (all meats, except rib steak and fileshki), rabbit. Pork and lamb are taboo! Prepared without a gram of oil.

It is all worth cooking without adding oil and fat, you can eat when you want, as much as you want, calorie counting does not take place.
Some foods should be consumed in moderation:

- zero calorie sugar substitutes (no fructose, glucose and sorbitol);
- diet drinks;
- you can eat 8 crab sticks;
- Mono oil can be used as paraffin oil (1 tbsp. L. ), Since it is not high in calories, it envelops the intestines, allowing it to normalize its work, and the stool improves. Do not use for frying, do not heat, ideally - dressing for salads.
In all cases, it is imperative:
- Eat 1. 5 tbsp. l. oat bran per day.
- Light gymnastics and daily 20-minute walks.
- Drink 2 liters of water (tea, coffee counts).
If you have a bad taste in your mouth, don't worry about a bad smell, this is quite acceptable and indicates that you are on the right track. You can go to the second step.
Stage 2 - Alternation or Cruise
This step lasts until the arrow on the scale shows you the optimum number you want. The peculiarity of this period is that the protein days alternate with the protein-vegetable days.
Pierre Ducan's diet proposes to independently choose the alternation - 1/1, 2/2 or 5/5. For people with a large excess of weight, it is advisable to adhere to the 5/5 scheme, for those with a small excess, 1/1 is optimal, so it will be easier for the body and for you.
List of prohibited vegetables (starchy and not only):
Avocados, all legumes, non-green beans, peas, corn, potatoes, lentils, olives and olives, and all types of grains and pasta. 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 eaten in small amounts, as they contain sugar. For a change, you can include 1 tablespoon in the diet. l. tomato paste (ketchup), as well as 0% fruit yogurt.
For cooking, you can use all the products of the "Attack" stage, which should be consumed there in moderation.
The new features are as follows:
- Bran now we eat 2 tbsp. l. in one day.
- If necessary, then an Art. l. wheat bran will help with constipation.
- Dairy products should not exceed 1 kg, check this.
- Water is the same 2 liters.
- And now you have to walk for at least half an hour.
Through the alternation of protein with vegetables, you will allow yourself to normalize the metabolism, water will leave the body, removing toxins, toxins, fats and salt. As soon as you notice that the arrow on the scale has become the cherished number, you need to move on to the step called "Consolidation".
Step number 3 - "Consolidation" or "Securing the weight"
This phase will help you consolidate the results obtained and it will last according to the kg lost. 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 turns out that for a kilogram lost in 10 days of the 3rd stage.
After going through the previous two steps, you want some variety and something new? You're welcome! You can now afford 40 grams of hard cheese which contains no more than 40% fat in dry matter. The lower the% fat, the more cheese you can eat.
You can also have a few slices of rye bread, a unit of fruit (except for bananas, cherries, cherries, and grapes), and a few slices of watermelon or melon.
When it comes to meat, now you can eat fried pork, bacon and lamb in any quantity.
And a few other bonuses: you can now lean on a serving of starchy vegetables once a week, as well as have a 'stomach feast', which allows you to eat any first, second, and dessert (an appetizer- a glass of wine with cheese). But all of this should be eaten all at once, for breakfast or lunch.
Now we're going to split the whole scene in half. For example, you have to stick to consolidation for 80 days. Part One - 40 Days: You can have one serving of starchy foods and one "feast" per week, but for the next 40 days you can feast and eat starchy foods twice a week.
What do we mean by starchy foods? Here is the list and the quantity authorized for consumption:

Bran should now be consumed up to 2. 5 tbsp. l. per day and walk at least 25 minutes per day.
Step 4 - "Stabilization"
Well, now we have come to the last step called "Stabilization".
He has rules that you will not gain weight throughout your life, the main thing is to follow them.
