After trying out the Weight Calculator test on the website, this is recommended for my weight loss program.
Attack Phase
Source of article: http://mydukandiet.com/dieting/attack-phase.html
The Attack Phase for me will last for 7 days. "The main purpose of this stage is to introduce good eating habits, while dealing with the usual diet hunger issues. For most people this is also the phase with the biggest weight loss - as the time goes by your body will adjust to the new regime and lose weight at a more stable pace. Be sure to eat at least 3 meals a day, with good portion sizes and never go hungry. The first days are also when you will meet the potential side effects of the diet. As pure protein products are low in fibre there is a risk of experiencing constipation. To help alleviate this problem eat oat bran or you could even add some wheat bran for extra effect and drink plenty of water.

You can eat as much as you want as long as it is on the allowed foods list.
One important habit that you need to establish from day one is proper water intake. Avoiding dehydration and overworking your kidneys is crucial on a high protein diet like this. Be sure to drink over 1.5 litres per day.
Oat bran is a very important ingredient of the Dukan Diet and introduced as soon as the Attack Phase. You should incorporate 1.5 tablespoons of oat bran per day in any form you like - as porridge, with yoghurt, in muffins or pancakes.
One food unrelated rule is to introduce exercise in the form of a 20 minute walk each day. Many dieters will be happy to hear that at the same time more extensive exercise is discouraged in this phase."
Allowed Foods
Lean beef
Chicken (except skin and outside part of the wings)
Chicken liver
Any fish (except canned in oil or sauce)
Shellfish
Eggs (up to two per day, unlimited egg whites but watch the yolks if you have high cholesterol)
Dairy products (low fat, below 2% fat)
Sweeteners (except fructose based), vinegar, mustard, spices, herbs, garlic, onion (as spice), lemon juice (only as spice, not for drinking), sugar free natural ketchup (in moderation), sugar free chewing gum
