Kate Middleton Dukan Diet and Tracy Andersonās 30 Day Method Latest Craze or Common Sense
With the upcoming wedding, there is a lot of focus on Kate Middleton. Her interest in FranceāsĀ Dukan Diet is the buzz. According to Psychology today, this Atkins-like diet, āIt is very restrictive and rule-bound (high protein, low calorie), and then eventually gives permission to “eat anything” on six days of the week if you revert to the original guidelines (to basically cut out everything except for lean protein) for one day of the week, ad infinitum.ā Iāve tried Atkins-like diets in the past and found that not having carbs not only made me miss them (especially chocolate), but I couldnāt sleep.
There are always new fads out there for dieting. LatelyĀ Tracy Andersonās 30 Day Method has been mentioned quite a bit as well. After hearing that Courtney Cox and Gwyneth Paltrow use her method, I thought Iād get the Anderson book. Although I havenāt had a chance to watch the DVD that came with it, I did look at the daily amounts and types of food that she suggests in it. Although it would be nice to look like Cox or Paltrow, the food choices were very unusual (not much I could even eat because I am picky) and very small in quantity.Ā I will give some attention to her exercise program though as Anderson and her followers do look pretty amazing.Ā
Sometimes these books are fun to read to see what people are doing out there to look perfect. But I think Iāll look a little less perfect and keep to a common sense diet ā¦ oh and with a little chocolate thrown in for good measure.
