The last few months my weight has plateaued and I’m looking for ways to break through the barrier. One of the things I’ve been mulling is cutting down on carbohydrates. At the very least it should help with my blood sugar levels. That’s why I was intrigued when I heard about the Dukan Diet.
About the Dukan Diet
The Dukan Diet is a physician developed weight loss plan consisting of four phases taking one through weight loss and lifetime weight maintenance. The creator is Dr. Pierre Dukan, a French medical doctor, who has over 35 years of experience in clinical nutrition. I like that the diet doesn’t include counting calories but instead focuses on lean protein, lots of water, daily walking and allows unrestricted amounts of 100 healthy foods.
I like the concept of no restrictions on portions when you’re eating healthy foods. It’s easier to make good choices when you’re not dealing with hunger pangs! I already do the other three so it seems like a great fit.
One concept that’s unique is that of True Weight. This is the realistic healthy weight that one can reach and, more importantly, maintain for life. Before beginning The Dukan Diet members learn their True Weight by answering 80 questions that will define a personalized program in detail. You can find your True Weight at www.dukandiet.com.
I asked Simone Gloger, celebrity nutritionist, what makes The Dukan Diet different from other low-carb diet plans. She told me about two major differences. The first is that the focus is on lean proteins and the second is the oat bran that is included in all four phases.
Weight Loss Coaching
The Dukan Diet Coaching intrigues me as it’s the only truly personalized, interactive, daily online weight-loss program I’ve found. Coaches tailor their approach to each individual’s Dukan Diet profile and lifestyle – not just once but continually.
Each person’s Dukan Diet program is adjusted daily based on a short report from the previous day. And at less than $1 a day the Dukan Diet Coaching costs less than any other online diet program. This is bargain weight loss coaching!

Interesting: my True Weight is 20 pounds into the Overweight zone for me according to the BMI range. I do think it would be super-easy for me to get to and maintain that weight, especially compared to something much lower.
