Yea!!! It looks like your task is completed --- for now. Thanks so much for all the cross referencing. This is going to be a really valuable resource.

for a more decadent "chocolate pudding" try using yogurt cream.  OMG, it makes a much thicker almost mousse like treat and is super simple to do and very satisfying.  Before bed line a colander with coffee filters or cheesecloth and put in a servings of your lowfat yogurt.  Overnight the liquid will drain out leaving you a yummy thick yogurt (yogurt cream) that is perfect as a fruit dip or to use in the mock pudding recipes!

This is exactly what I was looking for.  How incredibly helpful.  Thank you so much for your efforts.  You've help lots more people then you can even imagine!

Thank you for this site!  I am on day 9, down 7 pounds and have eaten the most delicious food!  I dont think I would be this happy about the diet if I hadnt found your recipe addition!!! 

OH this is so much better than going through all of the pages. Thanks so much for the list!!!

Thanks so much for the listing.  It is helping.  I just made the turkey salad (in refrig) for tonight.  I have a recipe for french toast that I found on another website.  It is really good.  Slice an apple very thin and "saute" it in PAM and a little water if needed  (I just put a lid on pan instead of adding water) until the apple is soft.

I beat two eggs, or egg whites, with vanilla Next time I am trying a maple flavoring or extract), cinnamon and Truvia (Stevia)
Then pour the egg over the apple and let set. You can scramble it (which I do in a hurry although it doesn't look as nice it taste the same) or let it set and flip it.

I think this will be our Sunday special breakfast. 

terrific site.  thanks for putting this together. 

could you please add the Breakfast cookie to your list of recipes would really appreciate it

This is really great.  Can't wait to try some of these recipes.  Thanks for doing this.

p.s. Dr. Sears Kale Chips recipe has agave nectar - what cycle is that allowed in?  My recipe for kale chips uses olive oil, apple cider vinegar and Bragg's Liquid aminos but no sweeteners...

Love this list; thank you so so much!!!!

This is the best thing ever!!!! Thank you so much for doing this....can't wait for the next two....such a time-saver :-)

Just curious if pickles are ok to eat during the 1st cycle? 

Any idea when the cycle 2 recipe list will be up? I'll be ready for those in about a week. It's a great, quick resource to get new ideas. Thanks! Day 12 and 9 lbs gone!

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! This list is wonderful. I was hoping recipes would be broken up by cycles...

This is a very thoughtful community!

So happy to have found this site!...I was wondering are all these recipes approved by the 17 Day Diet author? (Doctor)  just curious.  :)

I am on the second round of Cycle 1, as I strayed after the first 17 day cycle 1.  I find this list to be very helpful

creating new meal ideas.

Can someone HELP, I have been on cycle 1 and part of cycle 2, lost 19 lbs. so far.  However, I need NUTS,

when and what can I have?

I have a ton of recipes on my blog if you want to link to them http://betterversionofme-tracie.blogspot.com/

I have only been on the diet for 1 week and have stuck completely to the day planner meals in the book.  I'm really going to go through these recipes and try some.  I take it that any of these recipes can be used while you are on cycle 1?  I have to admit I was getting a bit bored doing the meats the same way.

Jane1569: When looking at the recipes, make sure you double-check the ingredients, as some who post recipes aren't all that careful about making sure their ingredients are allowed in the cycle they say they're for.  MOST people are, but there are some that are not compliant -- just a word to the wise!

HMKSIS: On the nuts, Dr. Mike said in one of his videos or webcasts that we CAN substitute 1 Tbsp of nuts for one of our Friendly Fat servings -- every now and then, I do that with almonds.

Simmie

Loved the different recipes for cycle 1.  The recipes in the book were great but love the different ideas using the main ingredients.  Just started cycle 2 today.  Any idea when they might have these recipes for cycle 2?  Managed to lose 6 lbs in two weeks so happy with that.

Beachplum: These recipes are NOT approved by Dr Mike -- there's some that aren't compliant, period; and some that aren't compliant for the cycles listed.  Get to know your food lists for each cycle well! Altho....MOST recipes are compliant for the most part.

Simmie

Hey guys! im new to this and just started today! i was wondering if we can have any one of these foods on here for any of our meals? Also, if we dont want to eat fish or anything & cant. Can meal replacements be taken too? 

Thank you so much for compiling this list!  Just wondering how I was going to come up with variation of recipes to make me keep eatin sensibly!  Day 3 of cycle 1.  Feel better already getting that sugar out of my system!

I cannot find any sugar free yogurts.....and also, are we able to drink the bottled green tea?  Or is the green tea after each mean only the tea bag kind?  I just started today and it seems like I had more sugar than what is allowed.....:(

Couple questions:  I'm on day 4 and have not drank green tea with every meal.  Will that affect the weight loss? Also I bought no sugar regular yogurt that has 7 grams of sugar.  Should I discontinue that and get greek yogurt?

Thanks and help!

Has anyone had weight loss surgery and doing this diet?  is there anything that I should do different need to loose a couple of the happy honeymoon pounds?  Please let me know if you have heard of anything different someone should do if they have had weight loss surgery.

Thanks!

I have been on the 17 day for about 1 and 1/2 years, so far I have lost 67 lbs - haven't been very good for about 5 months but I am back on the band wagon.  All the recipes on this website will make it so much easier to lose my last 40 lbs.  So many great ideas.. thanks all.

p.s. I thought I would add that the last 5 months have proven to me that this needs to be a lifestyle change, not just a diet.  When i have reached the weight I would like to be - I will continue to follow this nutrition plan because I will never go back to where I have come from.
