Dukan Diet Update

So, at the beginning of this past week, I talked to you guys about starting the Dukan Diet.  Well, since then, I've finished the Attack Phase {thank goodness!} and have moved on to the Cruise Phase where you do one Protein Only day followed by a Protien + Veggies Day, and so on and so forth. Not gonna lie to you guys--the Attack Phase was a total pain to get through! A bloggie friend passed on her mantra to me though, which was "You can do anything for 5 days!" And that's seriously what saved me because it was so not fun! BUT, it was seriously effective! I ate pure protein for those 5 days, drank tons of water, walked to work and home everyday, and lost 7lbs! Granted, most of that was water weight {I'm way less bloated now!}, but still 7lbs is 7lbs and it feels pretty darn good!

Adding in veggies these past few days has been a lifesaver, though! Once you get to the veggie phase, there's so much you can do with your food! One of my favorite recipes that I found was the Cauliflower Pizza Crust Pizza.  Obviously, it's not the same as eating Domino's {our house favorite}, but it definitely took away those pizza cravings I was having! And just a note, I substituted fat-free cheese for the mozarella and then used sugar-free tomatao sauce and piled the pizza with all the veggies I could find!!!! 

Let me know how you guys are doing on it or if you have any questions about it! Next Sunday I'll put up a few more places that I'm finding great recipes, but for now you can always follow my Pinterest board, which is where I'm getting most of my Dukan ideas from anyways!

Happy Sunday, Lovelies!:)
