Here is what WebMD says about the 17 Day Diet:

What You Can Eat and What You Can't

The plan relies on lean protein, antioxidant-rich produce, probiotics, and good fats. It bans sugar, processed foods, salty foods, and fried foods.


Early on, you minimize starchy vegetables and high-sugar fruits, and cheats like alcohol are off the table entirely.

As the diet progresses, though, it gradually eases up. By the end, you can have the occasional drink, 100-calorie snack, or cheat meal.

Because of how our metabolism changes throughout the day, you should only eat fruit before 2 p.m., Moreno says.

Level of Effort: Medium

Even at its strictest, the plan gives you plenty of variety and personal choice.

Limitations: The diet starts off at its most restrictive -- 1,200 calories, with a high-protein, low-fat, no-carb emphasis (including minimizing starchy vegetables and fruits). But as users move through the cycles, more and more foods are added.

Cooking and shopping: Dieters can pick and tailor their own recipes to fit the plan, or choose among a wide selection of recipes included in the book.

In-person meetings: No.

Exercise: Required. The book includes a 17-minute weightlifting and cardio workout to do 6 days a week.
