17 Days!

Hey guys!!

So while I am a firm believer of the weight watchers plan, here is another one to try for fast results.  Keep in mind that faster results can also lead to faster bounce backs if you do not keep it up.  This guy makes some excellent points in this book!  I picked it up this past summer and tried it out in the fall and it works fast! I dropped 5lbs in 3 days, no word of a lie.  Basically what I have been telling you to do, drinking water with lemon and lots of green tea.  I was amazed!  Unfortunately my streak ended after 6 days.  Carbs found me again.

I read the whole book and it's very insightful and also has some excellent recipes to keep you on track and motivated.  Basically he discusses four phases, each consisting of 17 days.  The first 17 days are of course the hardest because you are completely taking carbs out as well as many other items you may usually snack on.  There a few rules that must be followed on fruit consumption as well.  If you can keep up the first phase he says most people generally lose up to 10 pounds.  Following this he begins introducing carbs into your diet again.  The good thing about this is that your metabolism is working so well that these carbs are essentially burned off.  The next two phases teach about moderation and control.

Dr. Mike Moreno has a cook book out as well now which introduces some great new recipes that can help you stay on track!

If you are a person who needs to see results fast then I recommend following Mike's 17 day diet plan.  It definitely works if you have the will power.  Maybe don't start this one until January...Christmas is around the corner and you will want to eat turkey, potatoes and cookies I promise you.

I have another idea as well, this one worked very well for a close friend of mine.  She looks amazing!! I will share this with you in a day or two.  I am out and about tomorrow for work so I may not see you guys til Thursday!

Cheers!
