I'm so glad you are doing well Slim. Keep up the good work! I won't worry about the weekends again! I went out for a walk at a castle near to where I live. We stopped for a coffee in the grounds, and my partner said, " would you like a cake to go with your coffee" I said "No than you" I am so proud of myself !:smile:…

You look absolutely amazing! Well done and congratulations!

Thanks Slim, you're doing really well too!

I thought day 6 would be really difficult, because it's the weekend, but it has actually been really easy. I probably haven't eaten enough, so will log my food now! I will probably weigh on Monday again too! Twice a week should be ok shouldn't it??? Mon & Fri!

Hi Jen, I only get one cup of green tea a day, and still losing so don't worry so much about that. Do you like fish. If you do try alternating fish with chicken so you get a different taste on the palate. I felt better when I ate more protein snacks when feeling hungry. Also try the green tea cold as already mentioned. I…

Hi all, Can I have prawns or smoked salmon on cycle 1 of the 17 day diet?

Nice weight loss Jen! Well done! Keep up the good work!

Can any of you tell me if parmesan cheese is allowed on the first cycle please, because there is no sugar or carbs in it?

Hi all, It's not a bad day, but still getting headaches!:grumble: I'm really happy I managed to get to 1100 calories today, but it was a real struggle peeps! I'm not sure if I can keep this up for another 13 days! I so want some sweets and chocolate. I'm really craving them! I've upped my protein, so this is keeping me…

Morning all, Hope you all have a great day today. This day 4 for me. I'm aiming to get to 1200calories today to see if I feel any better than I did in the previous 3 days. I'm still not sleeping unfortunately since I started this diet! Don't know why that is! I will speak to you all later on when I've finished work and my…

Hi all, Nice meeting all you lovely ladies. My name is Debbie, I live in the UK. I've been trying to lose weight for a very long time. I started on this site last September, after having major surgery, and putting on more weight during my recovery phase. I started off at 115 lbs in Sept 2012, went down to 104.1 lbs at…

Hi all, My starting weight (SW) on this 17DD on Monday 05/08/2013 = 210 pounds My goal weight (GW) is = 147 pounds., or there abouts.

Slipped off the wagon a bit today. Woke up with a stinking headache and feeling sick :sick: Gave into a small egg and tomato wholemeal sandwich and a Pimms drink later on. I'm still not able to get enough calories in, plus I'm exercising high impact too. Not sleeping very well either!!!:grumble: I'm sure tomorrow will be a…

Slipped off the wagon a bit today! But I'm back on it now! Still worried about calorie intake! I will try to have more protein tomorrow. I must squeeze in the fat free yoghurt portions.

This is day 2. I'm really worried, because I can't seem to eat more than about 800 calories. I drink at least 10 glasses of water a day plus hot water and lemon in the morning, plus black coffee and green tea, there doesn't seem to be any more room for any more food! What should I do ladies ????? help. I work so hard all…

Forgot to say, my weight was 210 pounds today, starting weight! Got to get down 2 dress sizes by my nieces wedding in 5 weeks! Thanks for all the food tips and advice, that was really helpful!

I didn't seem to be very organised I must say. Missed the water and lemon this morning, but did have a green tea and some fruit this morning. For lunch had tinned salmon and lots of veg. For dinner had Cajun chicken breast and lots of veg, and had basmati rice by accident. Only had about 25g. Had 10 glasses of water. Had…

Haven't got the book yet. Can anyone tell me what I'm not allowed for the first 17 days please, or is it asier to tell me what I can have? Thanks

Hi Slimbettie & all, Count me in. Sounds a really good way to get things going again.

Sorry! But this challenge isn't long enough for me: It isn't just a 17 day diet plan! It changes every 17 days, so you could use it as long as you want to. Why don't you give it a try. Plus you will have the help and support of this group too!

This thread is brilliant!
