I will be starting this soon and wondered if others who have taken it have had any problems/bad side effects.  How does it help (what feels different) when you take it? Melissa.

Ok, so I've made it to day 5 and how do I feel?  Amazing!  I've lost 5.6 lbs which I am completely ecstatic about.  I've noticed a weight change every single day so far but in a decreasing manner, understandably.  Day 1 (156.2lbs), Day 2 (153.6lbs), Day 3 (152.0lbs), Day 4 (151.0lbs), and Day 5 (150.6lbs).  So I went from losing 2.6 from the first to the second day to losing 0.4 from day 4...

If you are hungry by mid-afternoon, here's a favorite go-to snack for me.  A bowl of cherry tomatoes or baby heirloom tomatoes (from Trader Joes).  Get about a cup's worth.  Rinse them off and put in a bowl.  Drizzle just a dash of olive oil, swish the bowl around to coat them with oil, and sprinkle lightly with Morton Lite Salt.  You're allowed to have unlimited cleansing veggies for lunch, so my thought process is that these are...

I would like to know where, if any, on this website where one can purchase the products seen on todays show.  They had 3 dermatologists on, each explaining different produts.  I want to buy some of them and would love to know where to get them.  I know my Dr's office does not carry these.

I am on day 16 of Cycle 1 of the 17 DD.  I was very excited to watch the pounds come off the first couple weeks.  As of day 14, I lost 11 lbs.  The last 2 days I have stayed on the diet exactly, but I have gained 4 lbs back.  I do not understand what happened because it was going so well.  Has anyone else had this happen? I am going to continue...

Hey doctors, can you please fix the robax pop up on your site. I am getting very tired of it. I have to close it every few seconds in order to be able to read anything on the site. It pops up again within 1/2 second of closing it. It is very annoying.

So I've made it to Day 3 of the 17DD, for the second time around, and I feel great!  I've lost a total of 4.2 pounds just in the first 2 days!!  Seeing results FAST definitely keeps me motivated to continue on.  Swim suit season is coming up quick, and I want to be ready for it. One of the things I am noticing the second time around is that I don't have as much...

So lately i've been getting sort of like a cramp near the heart, & it feels like my blood is rushing, & near my neck it feels like it burns. It's kind of hard to explain all of this. but the heart/chest pain seems to spread to my arms and legs, it's hard to breath & I can't stand up without feeling like i'll pass out. This has actually happened before. Last year, to be...

There are over 20 million people that have HTLV worldwide and no one is actively looking for a cure. HTLV is considered a minor disease due to only 1% of people that contract it suffer from life threatening situations such as cancer. But HTLV can cause things like dermatitis, joint inflammation and swelling, uvitis, etc. HPV has been almost cured via the creation and introduction of the Guardasil vaccination. HTLV is contracted sexually just as...

Loved yesterday's show, Shocking Germ Traps in Your Home & on Your Body!  IMO, the doctors were at their best, giving advice and information in their particular field of expertise...they shined!  I learned a lot during yesterday's show, about where germs are hiding and what I should use to wash my face (I'm gonna get a baby washcloth and try it out).  I like learning of new procedures, like the non-invasive sinusitis procedure.  I liked the humorous banter between them when...

I officially started the 17 Day Diet in May of 2011 after watching a couple of co-workers shed pounds like it was nothing.  I immediately purchased the book and got myself acquainted with the basics of the diet.  I planned on a specific day to start the diet and made sure I was well-prepared with all of the food I would need for the upcoming week.  That first week was the absolute worst for me;...

I just want to make pple aware of these laws.  I've had personal experience dealing with them and they really need to be in the back of people's minds and enforced. HIPAA = Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act. The purpose of these laws is to protect the patient regarding confidentiality between personal and health information.  An example is, I see a psychiatrist.  I don't want family members to know of certain information that I've...

I was in the Army in the nineties, and I did a lot of wear and tear to my body.  I’m 5 foot 0 inches and while in the Army, weighed 105 pounds.  I always pushed myself to the limits, wanting to prove to myself and others that I can do anything, just like one of the guys. In fact, I pushed myself to be “as strong as the weakest male” I would always say--I...

Last edited: May 21, 2012 There was a report out today that Azithromycin, otherwise known as a Z Pack causes sudden death in people who have a heart condition or heart disease.  Over 55 million Americans took this just in the past year.  They took it for sore throat, earache, pneumonia, or bronchitis.  What if you have an underlying heart condition that you don't even know about yet?  Then you take this antibiotic?  Please be careful. ...

I have been a big fan of this show for quite some time. It was the only daytime show on TV that seemed to skip the silliness and provide relevant information and topics especially with healthcare. I would DVR the show and watch it everyday, however, I do not feel that way on days like this where we have irrelevant celebrities with nothing to say except to promote themselves by showing up to say nothing. Why in...

I started the 17 day diet today....and I'm confused on some things (that I may have missed in the book, but can't seem to find the answers)...is the Green Tea only the kind from the tea bags?  I guess I have to assume the bottled cold kind isn't allowed since it has sugars?? Also, I am struggling to find any sugar free yogurt.  Any I have found contains sugar.....any suggestions....same for the Kefir I found.....

Do you know what is your medical records?  I do I have copies.  And I couldn't figure out why I was being treated the way I was from a rehab counselor .  Know I know why.  Changes MUST be made in the laws that allow the patient to review, comment, and have included in their records BEFORE anyone else gets to see them

Hey everyone,  I'm sitting here reflecting on yesterday (5/11/12), and realized I had a really good day!  This AM when I woke up I didn't think I'd be doing much.  I just didn't feel like it, but at the same time couldn't find anything to do.  I didn't want to walk either because I wanted to rest my ankles (for some reason for the first 1/2 hour I walk it hurts my ankles terribly --...
