17 Days

Today mom, Jeremy and I started the "17 Day Diet." Basically you have 4 main cycles that are 17 days each and each cycle, like most diets, lets you add in a little something more. The interesting part to this diet versus the million or so other ones that I've seen, is that the last cycle expects you to have a life. It basically says that you are on the diet from Monday at breakfast to Friday at lunch and then you can eat whatever you want on the weekend. Of course it gives the caveat of being reasonable with your choices so you don't lose all of your progress in 2 days.

When I come to terms with not eating carbs or sugars, I'll talk more about what the diet entails. But for now, I must go grieve the loss of some very very good friends.
