What About .... The 17 Day Diet Cookbook?

Some of you know that I have Dr. Mike's 17 Day Diet Cookbook and have gone through it for inconsistencies and non-compliances and asked me to post the information that I have.

The following is a list of all the recipes in the cookbook.  Those that are non-compliant, for whatever reason, are shown at the end.

Also, keep in mind for any snacks that if they have fruit in them, they are to be eaten by 2 p.m. or at least 8 hours before you go to bed.

This is not all-inclusive; this list was put together during a basic "skimming" of the book. If you know of any other inconsistencies or errors, please let me know and I will update this listing.

The number before the recipe name is the cycle that it is first allowable cycle for the recipe.
