The 17 Day Diet Plan is Hot!
OK, so as usual during this time of year, there are several new diets and diet books being hurled at us. Maybe the "hottest" right now is called the 17 Day Diet. It promises to help you lose weight really fast and in a safe, healthy way and it's been featured on The Doctors, the Dr. Phil Show, and Oprah. How does it do that you ask? According to the author Dr. Mike Moreno it "adjusts your body metabolically" so that it burns fat quickly all day long.
Like many new weight loss plans this one is based on confusing the body in a way that, theoretically at least, forces it to use fat stores for energy while (hopefully) holding onto lean muscle tissue. The author claims that the typical person can lose 10 to 12 pounds on the diet within the first 17-day cycle. Not bad, but how much of that is water weight and how much is real fat loss?
