Best £1 I ever spent
1 of 1 found this helpful I got several copies (2 I think only £1 each) because I'd already bought one from the hospital charity bookstall as I'm a hospital volunteer. The others were for my nephews, both of whom are overweight and one of whom asked for it, with a few spares. Okay I'm wasn't what you'd call overweight myself, 5'1" (down from 5'3"; am 73) and was in recent years hovering around 9 st., and am currently around 8 st 7 lbs, due to Dukan, Not constant use of Dukan, even modified Dukan, I add, but really only a few days' worth in 2 goes. Point is, I didn't put it back on, and am slimmer than throughout my entire adult life. In fact I haven't even finished the book. Very full medical explanations and recipes, but the gem is the diet itself. Even the first 'radical' phase gives you a wide choice - I only did it for 3 days first and 1 day further on - lovely food, instead of dreary 'milkshakes'. Google also gives you Dukan recipes for, e.g. soya curries. Totally recommend it.
Oh I forgot to say, I continued to lose a few pounds even after I'd given up all pretence of following Dukan or even modified Dukan. So, yes, it's the greatest!
