I am an Australian fan of the Dukan Diet and I have some time to try out some of the recipes (with modifications for the Australian context and what I have in my stores), take photos (sadly missing in the diet books) and get my family's opinion. If you decide to try Dukan for yourself, please remember to first discuss with your GP.

Day 7, PP day CRUISE diet
This will be my last example diet day as my systems for Dukaning are up and running now. There is considerable organisation and food preparation to be successful on this diet. To finish this week, I have a PP day on the CRUISE diet.

Dry fried Atlantic Salmon (seasoned with lemon pepper) and served with Dukan mayo.
Supper Yoghurt

Slim tea.
Note that this was Easter Sunday. I did not have any chocolate, nor did I crave any either. I admit, I did avoid being near any hot cross buns as their smell is normally too tempting.
In general, I feel well, energised and balanced. It is a diet that suits me and my chemistry well. By the end of 7 days, I had dropped 3.5 kilos, feel more myself and am already over a third of the way there. I am quite comfortable that I can continue the cruising process for another 6-8 weeks to lose the weight.

Now for the last of three ATTACK days.
Weigh in first, there is another sign of weight loss, down another 1.5 kg. so that is 2.5 kg gone, or 25% of the 10kgs I wanted to loose.
