day 18

well this morning was my 17th weigh in - 13 pounds!!! it slowed down the last few days so i was excited about cycle 2 starting today. OATMEAL!!! i missed it soo much. i thought it would be difficult without milk but it was delicious. my memory is terrible so i will have to keep track whether it is a cycle 1 or 2 day:} hope all my friends are doing well.

What's that lump?

I have been looking for someone in the same position I am in but have not found them yet. I have a mass growing in the right side of my chest. I am only 24 years old and it has been there since high school. Doctors have seen it but never really found out what it was. if any one can help me figure it out it would be greatly appreciated

Great Show

I would just like to say that the new format for 2012 is absolutely wonderful and enjoyable. So good to have the Drs. back, smiling and giving us good health reports. They look and feel so comfortable. Very good guest appearances. I just love this show.

Day 17 - tomorrow I weigh in

I excited and yet nervous. I did it. I am so proud of myself. LOL I will post tomorrow the results.

Where is the professionalism?

I used to plan my day around watching the Doctors. No more. The yelling, constant talking over each other by Jillian and the psychologist have turned me off. Get rid of them and return the show to the Doctors who have provided an excellent program in the past. Submitted by an RN who used to enjoy the show

Just a Thought

Just wanted to let everyone know that this site has been wonderful. It has helped me vent about things and I have met some very wonderful people (you know who you are)..... so whether it is physical or emotional my thoughts on illness is covered in this quote by an unknown author: "The I in illness is isolation, and the crucial letters in wellness are we."

End of first 17 weeks

At the end of my first 17 weeks, I lost 14 lbs and never felt hungry. My Husband lost 16 lbs.

Interesting

Watching the show yesterday was inspiring to say the least. I would like to know where to get the exercise machine and what it's called that one of the contestants was riding outside. It looked like some kind of an elliptical machine because she was standing up and it looked easy on her knees and joints. It would be a change in a routine of exercise. I see a specialist today for gastrointestinal problems that...

Health and Exercise

Why is it so hard to go anywhere without being tempted with fast food ads, chocolate, donuts, and ice cream just to name a few. I do want to eat healthy and exercise. My book will come in soon. Judy

Quiting Smoking

Just a note of encourgement to those of you who recently quit or want to stop smoking. I know someone posted that they had just started the 17 Day Diet and quit smoking at the same time. With the help of my Public Health Department, I quit December 17, 2010. I opted to go to group sessions once a week, lots of information and we ALL had stories to share. The support of other people...

Weight Coming Off.

Down 5 lbs since Monday, 1-3-11. Gotta love it.

Day 9

Day 9 - down 5 lbs. Feeling good. Eating healthy and sticking to the plan pretty much. Went out to eat a few times this week, but stuck to meals that I would have fixed at home: grilled talapia over a tossed salad (without croutons or cheese) and oil (1 tsp) and vinegar (2 tsp) over all. Very good. Another restaurant meal: steamed brocolli, steamed carrots, grilled salmon and a small house salad with balsamic vinegar...

Seeing Results and Feelin' Great

So I just jumped on the scale this evening and saw the numbers decreasing, which put a smile on my face. I was down to 212. I am down 18 pounds. I have also been able to get back into exercising once again, which felt amazing. I felt like I had my life back after being laid up with a sprained knee. This week has been the first week I have fully been able to...

Not buying any new clothes yet but I will be throwing out the LARGE clothes cause I am NOT going to fit into them anymore. I will then go shopping when my closet thins out. That is my new reachable...

Misc

Immediately after watching The Doctors yesterday I ordered the 17 Day Diet off the internet and just waiting for it to come so I can start with the tips in the book. My goal is to lose 60 plus pounds. I am excited to start this new healthy chapter in my life. Even though I don't have the book yet I am starting to make healthier choices in my lifestyle. I exercise more and strive...

Morel Mushrooms for Cycle 1

For those of us that live in "Morel Mushroom Country" you can treat yourself on Cycle 1! I just followed the Eggplant Parmesan recipe. Therefore I put the morels in egg whites and Parmesan cheese and fried them in a bit of olive oil, they were very tasty!!! You could also bake them like the eggplant recipe in The 17 Day Diet book.

On a budget-fast fixes

Today I must share what was right action for me. The Docs had a seaweed snack that taste good. Dr. Sears said. "Its good", twice so I took a look to see what seaweed was good . Roasted seaweed Snack(trader Joes) .99. Cinnamon from your spice rack lowers cholestrol and blood sugar levelS(Yeh!) Dr. Travis believes cinnamon gum is good to control bad breath. Mayonaise good for dry skin: elbows, feet and hands. Make certain you clean...

Lice Removal Northeast Ohio

Discreet Lice Removal, a company in Northeast Ohio, took care of my lice problem. They came to my home, checked the entire family and treated my two daughters. They were professional, knowledgeable and set me straight on the facts about lice. I would hightly recommend using their service. I spent a lot of money on store products first. I should have avoided that nightmare and called them first.

Day 1

Ok the lemmon water was tough. 1/2 way through my tongue was on fire. Breakfast should take that away. I'm on my way like a train out of control. I'm so ready for this.

stress

Some of us where I work were discussing how we manage stress. I was always told one good way to manage stress is to die. I am not saying hurting yourself is a good idea or that I am going to inflick pain on to myself. All I am saying is that no matter what we do or are involved in we have stress. Its a part of life we can let it affect us...

Day 12

This is beginning of day 12 for me. Did not weigh this morning, will weigh tomorrow. Hoping to be down at least 2-3 lbs. since weigh-in on Wednesday. I feel good this morning. Breakfast was scrambled egg whites with green peppers and non-fat cheddar chese, hot green tea, yogurt and frozen strawberries (heated in microwave). Still waiting on my book, but the blogs and recipes are helping a lot.

Childhood

Have you ever tried going back as far as you can remember of your childhood? What are the things most prominent? How far back can you remember? Are your memories things that actually happened or have you over the years used your imagination and elaborated on something, unintentionally, that happened. Things that I remember I have associated with feelings. Feelings of pain, of happiness, of anticipation. I was looking at some of the scars I...
