Getting in Shape

17 day diet anyone?

Anyone else have success with this? Saw it on Dr. Phil and bought the book. Very similar to South Beach, but fruit is allowed.  Hope it works!

Re: 17 day diet anyone?

  • Diets shouldn't be confined to - and can't do much - in 17 days. Long-term, healthy lifestyle change is best.
  • Its not just 17 days, its 4 sections of 17 days to adapted eating.
  • whats the breakdown of this? What can/cant you eat for each 17 day cycle?

    HA! I should probably buy the book to find out, huh?
  • A quick search seems to show it's not really a crazy diet so much as helping someone kick start into long term healthy living in 17 day increments. Sounds kinda interesting...

    Although it does promies to "fight belly fat" - a claim that ALWAYS makes me wary of any product/diet/meal plan etc.

    Let us know how it goes! :)

  • Some women I work with have had lots of success with it lately, but they seem to feel a little deprived and I'm not sure if dropping all that weight quickly is really a way to achieve long term health. 
  • google has a book preview if anyone would like to read it.
