On the tail end of the 3rd round of 17DD. Started in September and have lost 20 lbs. Very excited about the results. I have not stuck to the exercise like I should. End of the year is a busy time and I don't focus enough energy on working out. I was proud to make it through Thanksgiving (on cycle 3) without gaining a single pound. I think just making better food choices has made all the difference. Of course I still cheat and have chocolate, but sweets are not my first choice. My husband is also on the 17DD with me and I believe that is the other secret to my success. I am not at my goal weight, so I think we will go another round! Keep strong through the Holiday Season and don't forget to enjoy life....after all, we only have one.

    good for you!! I modified the diet a bit and my loss has slowed some. It is hard to make it work with 7 kids in the house, hence the modifications. Luckily my kids like most everything on the plan so I haven't had to change too much. My husband is even learning to like salad!
