Understanding The 17 Day Diet

If you are keen on losing weight and keeping fit you must have come across the 17 day diet. This is a diet that aids in helping you to shed 10-15 pounds in only 17 days.

The theory behind it is that it creates "body confusion" thus the body is unable to adapt to the changes in the amount of calories that you are taking. As a result of this your metabolism stays in high gear and you are able to lose a lot of fat.

Cycles

The regimen is divided into three 17 day cycles that are meant to prevent you from getting bored with the food that you eat. The cycles also prevent your body from going into a plateau.

Cycle 1: this one lasts from day one to day 17. The aim of this cycle is to accelerate your body. During this cycle you greatly reduce your sugar intake and focus on improving your digestion.
