I've been doing little "cheats" which I consider still low-carb but not true to the 17dd (like the egg salad and the ranch dressing). Also I've been doing 1 full fruit serving and then dividing the other into 2 (ie, blueberries in my yogurt and oranges in my cottage cheese).
Very much looking forward to cycle 2 and getting to at least eat some beans and oatmeal some days!

tomorrow i get to eat 2 starches!! i am a bit unprepared and need to go to the grocery store, so they will probably be raw oatmeal in yogurt and some edamame on my lunch salad (i found it in the cultural substitutions section).
also, tomorrow morning i weigh in, so i'll get to see how much weight i lost with cycle 1. i definitely can tell that my belly is getting smaller!

I have not been following 17dd exactly but have been doing a lot of reading on low carb diets and am sorta doing my own little mix for now. i will probably keep posting here because i AM doing the every other day more carbs thing like on cycle 2 of the 17dd.
Sounds like you are doing great. I have noticed that I still tend to stick to what I am used to-eating less carbs. I am following 17 dd, but I still keep an eye on my carb intake. Its what works for me.

S: apple
L: tuna salad with gluten-free crackers (they taste like nothing but work adequately to get the tuna salad to my mouth); cottage cheese with orange slices

Had blood tests that looked good! My total cholesterol was 160; LDL a little high (like 102) and HDL needs to improve (was 40). Triglycerides were like 80 or something. This was part of a free health screening; hoping to have these numbers rechecked in 3-6 months at my doc appt.
I feel like I veer a little bit more from the 17DD each day while still maintaining a low carb diet.
Bought an immersion blender and am looking forward to making some "healthy" mayonnaise (ie, olive oil based) today!
Well, I've kind of fallen off the wagon as far as posting goes, but I have lost another pound! That makes 15 lbs gone for the month of October...not too shabby!
Did my grocery yesterday and prepared my chicken veggie soup. I'm all set for success!
