I'm a retired person, and living in Southern California with my two Pugs and three cats.  I have been unemployed for two years.  I have alot of time on my hands and sometimes get depressed because I can't find a job. I think my weight lost has come from eating and drinking more wine than I should. I do, exercise two to three times a week, and enjoy it. I started on the 17daydiet three days ago, and have lost three pounds. I would like to lose 15 to 20 pounds altogether.

On Cycle One of the 17daydiet, I  lost 10 pounds, now that I'm on the Cycle Two, it's a little harder, I have to stop drinking my wine and get back to working part-time. I may go back to Cycle One, I was under control than.
