My 17 day Diet - Day 3

Have a Can-Do Attitude
Day 3 -

Affirmations
I will eat from the 17 Day diet menu plan
I will drink 8 glasses of water today
I will exercise 17 minutes today
I will walk for minimum 20 minutes

Breakfast -
So far today
  •  - 1 poached egg
  • - lemon water
Finding that the lemon water is replacing my usual tea. And the tea is a trigger for titillating sugary treats!

Starting weight 175
Todays weight 171
Loss - 4 pounds

Its amazing to feel that I REALLY want the 5 pound goal! I know I can do it and having a Can-Do attitude helps!

You thoughts? What is your survival mechanism when the weight isn't coming off? Mine is tracking the loss. It seems to spurr me on!

My 17 Day Diet Begins

I have never been a 'big' person so when I reached my 50th birthday and found that I could not eat what I wanted to, I was astonished.

I was putting away the pounds and not understanding why! The cake, bread and crackers that I snacked on were now sneaking up on me and landing directly on my hips, stomach and waistline. I had never heard of the 17Day Diet and thought that if I could survive the 17 day diet and be 20 pounds lighter (or even 10 pounds) it would be wonderful.
17 Day Diet Founder Dr. Mike Moreno
Quick results and common sense eating is what attracted me. That coupled with a easy to understand well planned book and I was on my way.


As a plan of attack I will each day tell you how I survived the 17 day diet.






Day 1

Each day I will affirm what I will do
  • i will eat fresh fruit and vegtables
  • I will exercise minimum 17 minutes
  • I will walk for min 20 minutes
  • I will drink 8 glasses of water a day
and then let everyone know how I did!
