Where do you find out how to do it and does it work?

    I've never heard of it I'm afraid. But it sounds like a quick fix type diet?

    In my opinion these never work long term. Much better is to consider your weight loss journey as a lifestyle change rather than a diet that you will do for a period of time and then go ack to "normal" eating (the very eating that caused you to put weight on in the past).

    The 17 day diet is a book you can get at the official website, it think it's "17daydiet.com" or you can find it at some book stores. I bought the book and read it and it didn't sound like it was for me. It's an exericse and eating plan that works in 4 17-day cycles that you work through that it supposed to help you lose weight "quickly and safely" it is very low-carb/no-carb so it's definitely not for everyone.

    You have to buy the book and you just keep cycling through the 17 days. A lady I work with did it and she has only probably kept ten of the pounds off that she lost. It didn't look like a good plan in my opinion.

    Eat what you want just exercise and stay within the calorie goal =]

    Any time I see any kind of number and the word diet, I say, "STAY THE HELL AWAY." It's a temporary fix and doesn't address the long term issues of learning how to eat right and become physically active. If you want to lose the weight and keep it off do it by slowly losing the weight, learning to eat right, and moving your rear end. There's no crash diet, pill, drug or alien abduction that will solve this problem outside of eating well and exercising.

    I'm on the year 3, still have 85 pounds to lose 'diet.' If this ain't a lifestyle, I don't know what is ♥
