    Just joined MFP and I did the first stage of the 17 day last year with great results.
    I am thrilled that I can do it and track using MFP I look forward to connecting with others doing the same

    I did stage 1 and stage 2 last year with great results. I basically used stage 1 and 2 to kick start weight loss and to give me incentive to get back on track again. I do not recommend long term weight loss with just 17 day diet but it is excellent to with helping me get the weight loss results I need to see on scale to get me motivated and keep me motivated. Good luck everyone!!!

    I wish MFP had notifications for groups. I would say keep checking back at this group once a week. I'll try and get on and post on it. :)

    We did this last year right after the 1st, did the first 3 plans and had very good success. That was until the summer came and beer season started, which put a big snag on it. It does work if you stick to it and if you can get by the first 17 day's you should be well on your way. Planning on starting again this coming wednesday and maybe a group like this is what I need to complete the journey.
    Good luck all

    Bought this book a while back and never opened it. When I saw this group, I joined and then went to find where the heck I put the book. Wasn't hard to find with that bright pink cover! Will start reading tonight and create a grocery list. As I am a red meat eater, it's going to take all the willpower I can muster to eat only fish and poultry for 17 days. Will be here often for support to make it through the first phase. New member to MFP and new to try the 17 day eating plan (I hate the word "diet".)

    I am Willy ( love your t shirt). I started on the 2nd so I am only 2days in. I am feeling pretty motivated and have done some cooking and shopping to satisfy my need for good food. I find using MVP to track keeps me honest. At the moment I am not missing the carbs. Hope things are going well for you and the rest of the group.

    MFP really does help especially with the tracking of the food and the people that you don't know that you get support from. Hang in there for those first 17 days, after that it really does get easier. :flowerforyou:

    I am on day 12 of the first cycle. I have followed it 95% to the letter --I do have steamed skim milk with my green tea sometimes!

    I am sorry if this is too much information for anyone but I am having trouble with my digestive system. I am having very few bowel movements and those that I do have are very small. Maybe this is normal because I am eating so much less than I normally do. Is anyone else having this problem and does anyone know if it improves on the second cycle? Thanks!
