I am on day 14 of Phase 1 and I have already lost 8 lbs!  Wow!  My pants feel looser, my belly is flatter and my thighs are more shapely.  I'm not hungry at all and I feel really good.  I had a few cravings and I waited them out rather than give in to them like I would have in the past.  I had an evening last week that I was required to attend...

Is anyone having problems getting the 17 day book. I ordered mine over a week ago and haven't received any tracking number or shipping notification. I attempted to call, but number is down and haven't received any email return. It is starting to look like a scam. Luckily I paid with my card and will dispute it shortly.

Good morning, losers. I hope all of you are losing at a steady pace. I left the Oreos and Klondikes behind and joined the Y in my area. I am very pleased and amazed at how the Y has changed since the last time I went there. They have state of the art equipment and staff on hand to help you along the way. I signed up for the Y Challenge and am on a...

Yesterday was D1 of C1.  I had good success with the 17DD earlier this year (lost 14 lbs) but my program got derailed for a while.  I had out of town guests for over 3 weeks and trying to follow a strict eating plan is very difficult when entertaining others.  But once they left instead of hopping right back on the plan, I got lazy.  I would watch my diet for a day or two,...

Have just received my book and dvd.  Starting this week-end I will be stocking my pantry with what I need for the coming week.  I sure hope this works for me but I do have my doubts.  I have so much weight to loose and I am so tired of being this size.  Hopefully I will soon be able to see that thinner person that is stuck behind all this fat.

I have always enjoyed watching The Doctors until Jillian Michaels joined the group.  She is loud, obnixous and constantly interrupts anyone is talking to voice her opinion.  She should stay on Biggest Loser and leave The Doctors!

Since I tend to eat healthy foods, I just have to give up somethings I really like until I get to the next and last cycles--edamame, multigrain flats, and peanut butter on my...

About 5 months ago I stepped on a floor heater vent and it collapased. My leg went clear through it into the basement ceiling. It caused a large bruse on my upper thigh (the same leg that I had my hip replacment done on). The bruse healed, but now a large lump, redness, heat and tenderness has appeared in the same area where the large bruise was. I went to see the doctor that did...

Some people may take this the wrong I apologize before hand. It bothers me when I hear military wives say they are single moms. Honey I'm sorry but a single mother is responsible for not only taking care of her child but also provide the income. My husband my be gone a lot but I haven't ever considered myself a single parent. I feel it is a insult to my husband who works hard to...

Well, the Easter Week-end was not so good for me. I helped my sister-in-law renovate her restaurant all week-end and of course she fed us. This was very nice of her to do so but of course there were not a lot of good choices for me. I gained 3 lbs. on the week-end but I have gotten back on track again. I lost 2 of those lbs. yesterday and am rooting for the other to...

Greetings fellow Canadians! I am back. I have not shared here in a while but I must say that this 17 Day Diet is definitely effective as I managed to keep the 15lb lost off over the summer and did not stay on the diet! This proves to me how it is most certainly effective and works. Well, I am back to Cycle 1 once again and feeling fantastic and full of energy! Please visit...

Anyone have this done?  I'm getting a referral from my eye surgeon to have this procedure after he's been monitoring my eyes for years.  Because I've been diabetic for 40 of my 43 years there has now been what he thinks is leakage in my right eye.  I'm thinking this is just a prevenative measure but he did say that if there is leakage, he will have to perform laser eye surgery to fix it. ...

Well if a healthcare professional did not take the flu shot I would not be upset, because after sitting in the waiting room for the doctor, I was more afraid of catching the flu from the patients then the healthcare professional because MOST healthcare professionals at least wash there hands,  use antibacterial gels, & or gloves.  I do not fear the professionals but the patients in the waiting area.     Also, individuals are always...
