Thanks for sharing this info--this plan REALLY works. Who would have thought that a 60 year old could lose 7.4 pounds (easily and comfortably and healthily) in just 8 days!<br />HugsTishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01039903741028922963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6990977257817044347.post-81727177031678028842012-01-02T19:13:17.062-05:002012-01-02T19:13:17.062-05:00This sounds great.

Maybe, just maybe you've found something that works for YOU :) That would be fantastic.

Very proud of you!<br /><br />I have not heard of the 17 day diet, and at some point when I need a boost off a plateau or something, I might check into it! I just came off of Medifast (after battling with myself about how I despise real "diets"), so it will probably be a few months before I put myself back on a for real diet. <br /><br />And YES! I'd love to go hiking with you sometime. I'm honestly pretty busy through Christmas...but I'll check in with you after then and we'll find a day and a trail! (And we can do a shuttle hike for sure!)Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04134112483941066017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6990977257817044347.post-17402842591700386222011-12-07T07:10:12.955-05:002011-12-07T07:10:12.955-05:00Congrats!

I just took a book out of the library about what to eat for good skin care - but it's called The Skin Care DIET or something like that - which totally annoys me! I guess it's that people think that diet = losing weight, and it's not always about that, sometimes it's about just eating healthily! <br />I'll step off of my podium!<br />BTW, I do think that eating in cycles is very healthy - I know I get into ruts, I am such a boring eater. My weight moves very slowly but it does move faster if I change up what I'm eating.<br />Good for you!<br />Enjoy!<br />DawnAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6990977257817044347.post-79342475479894503892011-12-05T21:43:18.091-05:002011-12-05T21:43:18.091-05:00No, I have not heard of the 17 day diet, but then ...No, I have not heard of the 17 day diet, but then I am not looking.

I also don't think it's odd to start a new eating plan in December. In fact, it's a good time because even if you indulge a bit on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, or both, you've still been eating very well, very clean, and very healthy on all of the other days of the month. And I think that's what this is really all about.Michele @ Within Reachhttp://www.withinreachblog.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6990977257817044347.post-44661434413988363082011-12-05T10:35:17.816-05:002011-12-05T10:35:17.816-05:00Hi- found your post through another blog and yes, ...Hi- found your post through another blog and yes, I have been sorta kinda following the 17 day diet. I should be more diligent but it's hard this time of year. However, I have lost a few pounds and want to really get on track in 2012....my big downfall is I love to bake and <br />I have too many nuts (I mean pecans/almonds and walnuts)in the house. I did find a real bargain Friday when I was in a different city and bought 5 bottles of kefir for $2.39 each- here they are close to $5. I drink at least a cup a day and I like the cottage cheese too but hey, the only food I have ever found I don't like it black licorice. I wish I was more discriminating when it comes to food!NANhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01809533152358579455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6990977257817044347.post-88599489174412788382011-12-05T09:45:38.315-05:002011-12-05T09:45:38.315-05:00You win the Gold Medal in Hiking for the year!

Maybe after the holidays? Right now, I seem to be okay muddling along in my own way. :)Cammy@TippyToeDiethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00547787031318303521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6990977257817044347.post-67203681518612979432011-12-05T08:04:37.917-05:002011-12-05T08:04:37.917-05:00I've never heard of it, but I'm not a big ...I've never heard of it, but I'm not a big fan of low-carb dieting because of its dismal long-term maintenance.
