    This is a pretty good site to learn about it, I suggest you get the book if you want to try it though.
    Its Kinda complicated!

    Hi everyone,
    Starting back up today doing the 17 day diet. I did it back in April til about June. And I lost 15 pounds on it.
    I would like to loose another 10 or 12.
    It really does work if you stick to it. Since then Ive been eating healthy during the week and not so healthy on the weekends. I need some support because I loose all control over the weekend. And I want to be held accountable!
    So Lets do this. Please add me as your friend. For I need people that are doing this diet also.

    Starting Weight 141.
    After 17 days: Hopefully 130

    Good Luck everyon!!

    Goal after Cycle 1 - 148
    Total Goal - 125

    Started 17 dd today. I was off for Columbus Day. Hooray for my job even though I don't get paid. I was able to walk for about 70 minutes, burned 432 calories according to my pedometer.

    For breakfast, I had a 3 egg omelet with green peppers and a banana
    Lunch was a tuna salad with lettuce and green peppers and salsa as dressing
    Snacks were a slice of watermelon and another banana I split with my son

    Now though I'm realizing that bananas are not allowed yet so I have to get other fruits to snack on. Tomorrow is the big test as to whether I can continue to eat this way at work.

    SW: 231.5
    CW: 219.5
    GW after cycle 1: 209

    Goal is to walk 4 times a week, an hour a day after work and Pilates with Exercise TV 3 times a week.

    Im doing the 30 day shred in the moring. Level 1,2 or 3 then I also usually run either later in the afternoon or at night. I usually run 5 miles. Usually exercise 5 or 6 days a week.

    For Breakfast I had eggs and a half of grapefruit. Snack carrots. Lunch tuna with a small amount mayo. and 1/2 grapefruit. Snack more carrots. Not sure what Im having for dinner yet. OH and tea with both breakfast and lunch.

    Now is the tricky part to eat healthy the rest of the night.

    Hey everyone!! I'll be starting on Wednesday! I'm gonna be so busy tomorrow, and I'll need to go shopping for veggies and some fruits. How many snacks do you all plan on having? I really don't think I can get by with one (or 2!). I'm a 3 snack/day person. If I don't eat something small after dinner, I won't be able to sleep... And I'm worried about not getting enough calories... I'm not a big meat eater, so I'll probably be trying to add calories through veggies... An impossible task. But I'm inspired by the people who have done this before, so lets have a great first 17 days!
    Whats everyone doing for excerisize?
    Loves2snack... I'll be 30 Day Shredding it along with belly dancing, stationary bike, and walking (so what I usually do).

    shellonis... Watermelon isn't allowed either, but you still had a great day! Good effort!

    Thanks Steph, I didn't know about the watermelon either. I may need to do some additional reading of cycle one. i was trying to avoid ask the tempting food at my sisters house and settled on a slice to keep the hunger at bay. I did go to the farmers market though and ended up getting the allowed fruits and veggies.

    Day 1 was pretty good. I had apples, yogurt, cottage cheese, leftover bbq chicken with green beans. Then for dinner I had 2 eggs and turkey sausage and some deli chicken. No cheating until I ate a handful of raw almonds. But I'm ok with it since I didn't have my one good fat for the day.

    Today, more of the same. Apple, cottage cheese and yogurt so far. I have another apple that I might but up and put with some leftover chicken for a nice chicken salad. I don't have any lettuce right now so I will just have to eat it plain. I have no idea what's for dinner tonight. I have class so not much time!

    Keep going everyone. We can do this!
