by Marshall Brain<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Here is my journey so far with the Dukan Diet:<\/p>\n\n\n\n And today I am reporting on my seventeenth week (days 116 through 123) on the Dukan diet. It has been great week for exercise \u2013 I rode something like 100 miles this week on exercise and real bicycles, including a 61 mile ride on Sunday. But I only lost 0.8 pounds this week, which surprises me a little. Here is how the week unfolded:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Day 116 –<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Day 117 –<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Day 118 –<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Day 119 –<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Day 120 –<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Day 121 –<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Day 122 –<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Day 123 –<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n So what did I learn this week? I\u2019d say that overweight Americans, and anyone trying to lose weight, need to stay out of places like Cici\u2019s. The fact that Leigh gained 4 pounds in a single day, and I gained a pound even though I ate in strict moderation, shows the problem. I\u2019m also surprised that exercise didn\u2019t have a bigger effect on weight loss. The week started out strong and I lost a pound in two days. I rode (on exercise and real bicycles) about 100 miles this week and (except for Cici\u2019s and a bad day with pancakes) did a pretty good job on food consumption. But the week\u2019s total was only 0.8 pounds. Perhaps it is water, and next week will go better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Anyway, Onward to 175! How hard can it be?<\/p>\n\n\n\n [[Click here to find out what happened next…<\/a><\/strong>]]<\/p>\n\n\n\n by Marshall Brain Here is my journey so far with the Dukan Diet: I wrote an article on the Dukan diet: How the Dukan Diet works \u2013 The French diet that is supposed to end the obesity epidemic I started with a 5-day \u201cattack phase\u201d: Yesterday I finished a five-day \u201cAttack Phase\u201d on the Dukan Diet and lost … Continue reading Dukan diet Cruise Phase (Phase 2) week 17 \u2013 I lost 0.8 pounds, learned to stay out of Cici’s Pizza<\/span>
– So let\u2019s say the family walk plus 2 hours on the bike burned 1,000 real calories. That just about covers all of my transgressions today.<\/li>Dukan Table of Contents<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
