so does it work?

Friday 14/05/10 - ATTACK PHASE (DAY 7)
Weigh-in: 76.8 kgs
Down: 0.4 kgs
Total loss: 3.5 kgs

Hell yeah it does!

In my opinion this is an extremely effective and healthy diet. One where you don't starve yourself but don't have to necessarily stuff your face with trans fatty foods (that's for you Atkins!) in order to lose weight.

I think what I like the most about this diet is the fact that I can have fat free dairy products. These are such life savers! I can continue to have my Starbucks skinny lattes, and ease the lack of sweet stuff with aspartame sweetened yogurts and diet cokes.

To start off the diet may seem bland and boring but lots of spices are allowed and if you do a little research you'll be able to find lots of recipes suitable for the PP phase (pure protein).

I can consider myself a master of the diets, I have been there done all of them. I don't know if its because this time around the whole weight loss process feels different, but I cant truly see myself sticking to DD, losing the weight, and keeping it off. I am not depriving myself (well I am, but it doesn't feel like it), and I haven't really found myself feeling hungry nor craving sweets and carbs. Hallelujah!

The only downside to this diet is expensive. This is not a very "on a budget" friendly diet, but that doesn't mean it is impossible to following, you may just get bored of eating the same old food 24/7.

I know I am only 7 days into the diet, and it is probably to early to review. But so far so go, no complaint, and what can i say, the scales do show what the diet promises.

To follow.. yummy recipes for the Attack Phase! Stay tuned!
