The Great 17 day diet

I am so happy with the 17 day diet
Day 3 and I have already lost 3 of the 5 pounds that i had gained
I am so delighted

Back on 17 day

I am starting back on the 17 day diet
I put on 5 pounds over the past month ( and I kind of expected to as I went to India and ate and brought back lots of sweets )
Is it silly to be excited about starting your diet ?
I am though
I want to lose a total of 10 pounds which will put me right at where I want to be 152 !
