    Terrible....17 days? What in the world happens after the 17th day? Do you start over? No diets; what we all really need is just a healthy lifestyle change.

    I saw it on tv today. apparently it goes in cycles of 17 days with different foods that you eat in each one so your body doesn't plateau.

    I was wondering myself about that...i am gonna get the book just to see....maybe from the liabrary and read and see....im sure it works....anything with guidlines like that usually shows results...reguardless if they are healthy or not...but i dont see why that one wouldnt be healthy.

    One of the people in the Sexy by Christmas challenge is doing it and she likes it -- it looks VERY similar to South beach in terms of food lists, its just that it has the 17 day gimmick (whereas south beach was like do phase 1 for 3 weeks, do phase 2 for 10 weeks...)

    they do your head in all these diets which constrain you to certain types of foods, telling you to avoid others. Just eat healthy and balanced and do the calorie counting, and do lots of cardio. It does work!
    I feel so much better since I started eating carbs again!

    it's lifestyle. It's figure out what foods you can & can't eat.
    For life.
