Day 4 was AWESOME! I feel alot less crackheadish :glasses: ! The weekend will be interesting with two funerals and a 50th birthday party. The plan is to take something with me that I CAN eat. I know that there is going to be FRIED food all over. Glad to see some are hanging in and that some just remembered:noway: !

Ok if you say so! Day 3 - I am itching like a crack head.....:indifferent:

Not one but TWO happy meals came in front of me today and I did not take one nibble. I have 40 days of no fried foods and today is only the second. I wanted tempted but survived!

Hit local farmer's markets on the weekend for your veggies if you can.

I tend to eat my meals in reverse! I have lard dinner like meals for breakfast and/or lunch and for dinner I have light breakfast or lunch foods. Kinda makes sense when you are trying to lose the pounds. More time to burn it all off.

Alrighty I have a support group :laugh: . You guys do not realize how much a LOVE fried foods :devil: . This is going to be the toughest 40 days of my life. I woke up this morning trying to figure out how to tweak these 40 days. I can do this. You can do this.

Two major reason to do it! 1. Rewards you and kills off the cravings along -- also giving you a day to look forward to during the week. 2. The human body gets bored - having a bad day allowed you to start a new diet each week. I have lost 33 pounds doing just this! What I did was change each week after my bad day. I always…

Sweet! I am there with you and sorry to say it get harder! However it is an awesome harder! Each day is something new and you learn alot about your body!

I have been wanting to try the Greek one and have yet to meet someone that like it. Good to know. I am so sick of the foods I am eating just seeking new things to try.

I did the one pound per week weight loss and each week lost more than that. Right now I am working to maintain and doing the 1/2 pound a week for this. It is more gonna be up to you. Good Luck you can do it.

That is so awesome! Guess not too many people have great stories like ours. Oh well. Congrats and keep up the good work.

Look at the South Beach or the 17 Day Diet before you try Atkins. I have done all three but my best results came from SB and 17 Day. I am on 17 Day now. It is still low carb and quick weight loss but not just meat, eggs and cheese. Need more balance than what Atkins has to offer. However you are an adult and allowed to…

I HIT DAY 17 TODAY! Cycle 2 and I lost a total of 9 pounds! Wow! I am 1.8 pounds from my goal so I am gonna go to Cycle 3 tomorrow with tons of exercise. The weight is not the best part the inches are! My pregnancy pooch is almost some and I see a waist. I am happy that I found this diet. I have much more energy. Man the…

Why are the HATERS telling people to have fun gaining the weight back. If you do not like it and do not wanna be a part just stay away from this post. Guess this is your best way of burning calories by pissing on the goals of others. Dang some people need to get a life and leave other's the heck alone. 17 DD people said…

Oh gosh I really thought I was the only one. I now feel better about myself and laughed off some calories :laugh: . Thanks

I have been on the road and eating hotel food and resturants but think I have done pretty well. I am on day 13 and only have one pound left to lose. I am pretty sure it is gone but I am going the entire 17 days to make sure. Man I feel great! Have you guys found that you have more energry? The four days were real slow but…

Wow tons of great food ideas. Some I have tried and some that I have not. Thanks guys for all the great tips. The grocery store would be the best option if they only have a drive-thru :laugh: . I do pack tons of snacks, fruit and drinks but sometimes ya just want some food. Gonna try some of these items that you guys…

The stall or weight gain might be due to you adding too many carbs at one time or lack of water. The human body is smart and is always in survival mode. On this diet, we limit the amount of carbs and processed foods. Once you reintroduce these items to your body the body hoards it and takes in as much as it can get. The…

GeenaLu I did not want to lose the weight too fast plus I did not have but around 10 pounds to lose. I wanted something that could get me down to my weight goal and I could stay on to maintain my weight loss. This diet allows you to shift between cycles as needed. More than anything it gives me rules and I do better with…

Oh my our 17 day diet family is growing while I am shrinking! I am talking for real! I can see a belly that is heading towards flat and I skipped Cycle One. Just think had a I done the first cycle. I am on day nine. Pretty much I keep my carbs 50% lower than MFP suggests and are still losing inches - more impt to me than…

Man awesome progress for all. Congrats keep up the good work. Do not forget to exercise! Does anyone have any breakfast ideas! This is the only meal that drives me crazy! I do not have tons of time in the am to plan something major. Gonna have to go back to oatmeal.

Started Monday and have lost 3.8 pounds and 8 inches. I only made it through Cycle One for a day. My body just could not handle those low restrictions. However Cycle Two is awesome and a challenge that I could meet and stick with for a long time since I am not trying to lose a ton fast. I LOVE THIS DIET plan :love: . How…

Walking is an awesome way to start! Go at your own pace and then work your way up. Create challenges that YOU can complete not anything someone else makes for you unless you need this. Maybe Day I to the mailbox and back then progress. Walking a little is better than sitting alot. Any activity burns calories - cleaning,…

Any of you guys have headaches? I have been having them since starting this Monday and now I have a migraine. Drinking tons of water.

Ok Day TWO is not as bad! However since I am only trying to lose eight pounds I went into cycle two and skipped one. I feel so much better and not as hungry. I would rather lose at a slower rate but I think the diet is awesome.

OK I am starving to death! What do I need to do. This is day one and um not gonna make it. Trying to drink until my belly feels full but that is not gonna happen.

Ok I started today! Now the Green Tea is going to be the death of me instead of my coffee. Have great breakfast and now ready for the hard part - the long day.

That is so awesome! You really give me motivation to get started and stick to the program.
