THE DUKAN DIET RECIPE BOOK (Old Edition) Paperback – 16 September 2010

Very nice book

bought the book at same time as the main dukan diet book. Alot of the information is duplicated so it is possible to just buy this and not the main Dukan book and still do the diet effectively.reciped are organised into the pahses which helps a lot only confusin is in the sauces section which seems to have a mix from all phases and difficult to know which belongs whereMost of the meals are very dry and lacking a good "gravy" or "jus" to make them edible.the quantities are ok but hte Oat barn gallette says it serves one find it is large enough to feed 2 easily and then we strugle.a suggested weeks menus like in the main book would be useful as well as a more varied plan fish gets a bit boring after a few daysbest recipe tried so far is the chicken curry (attack phase) from the dukan website 6 ingredients and very tasty

Firstly, take time to read about why and how this diet works, and then read the recipe book.I took the book on holiday and planned my menus. I decided to give it my all and I have followed the plan EXACTLY for 2.5 weeks and have lost 9lbs. I feel great, and I'm already looking better - plus no hunger pains, no cravings, and no desire to deviate at all.It's so easy to keep to the recipes providing you get organised first. I have a stock cupboard of my most used ingredients, and shop weekly according to the recipes I've written out. Failure to plan in this case could be planning to fail as they say. It IS different, but that's why it works, and I wish I had started this years ago, but I guess it's never too late.

This is a great diet in that you will definitely lose weight pretty quickly and fairly easily (if you stick to the rules). It's hard for the first week, but you get used to it and it's really motivating to see the weight drop off each week. However this is a very dull, repetitive and uninspiring recipe book, with no pictures. For example, baked chicken with courgettes, baked chicken with peppers, baked chicken with herbs, baked chicken with spices etc etc. I find I can use or adapt much better and tastier recipes using the Hairy Bikers Diet Book or the Good Food Healthy Recipes app.

Enjoyed doing the Dukan diet and lost weight quickly and easily but as usual put the weight back on when I stopped! The recipe book was to inspire me to continue. It did to a point but I like a recipe book to show me what the meal is to look like (something to aspire to) and it is not that kind of a book. It is more of a job to read the recipes to decide what to make than an enjoyable way of spending an evening!

Great book
