Dr Mike Moreno's 17 Day Diet is a revolutionary new weight-loss programme that activates your skinny gene so that you burn fat day in & day out. The diet is structured around four 17-day cycles: Accelerate
- the rapid weight loss portion that helps flush sugar & fat storage from your system; Activate-the metabolic restart portion with alternating low & high calorie days to help shed body fat; Achieve
- this phase is about learning to control portions & introducing new fitness routines; Arrive
- A combination of the first three cycles to keep good habits up for good. Each cycle changes your calorie count & the food that you're eating. The variation that Dr. Mike calls 'body confusion' is designed to keep your metabolism guessing. This is not a diet that relies on a tiny list of approved foods, gruelling exercise routines, or unrealistic calorie counts that leave you hungry & unfulfilled. Each phase comes with extensive lists of what dieters can & can't eat while on the phase, but also offers acceptable cheats. He advises readers not to drink while on the diet, but concedes that if they absolutely have to then they should at least drink red wine. Dr Mike knows that a diet can only work if it's compatible with the real world, & so he's designed the programme with usability as a top priority.

In any conflict, the First Alternative is my way, & the Second Alternative is your way. The fight always boils down to a question of whose way is better. This book presents a new & practical, but incredibly effective & eye-opening, way to reach resolution through using the ' Third Alternative'. The Third Alternative moves beyond your way or my way to a higher & better way
- one that allows both parties to emerge from debate or even heated conflict in a far better place than either had envisioned. With the Third Alternative, nobody has to give up anything, & everyone wins. To a world of escalating strife & contention, Third Alternative thinkers like those Covey profiles in this innovative & practical book, bring creative solutions, peace & healing. Through key examples & stories from his work as a consultant, Covey will demonstrate that Third Alternative thinking is the supreme opportunity of our times. Readers will learn how to create new & better results instead of escalating conflict, as well as how to build strong relationships with diverse individuals based on an attitude of winning together. The Third Alternative represents a departure from material on conflict resolution, negotiation & mediation; the book represents a new way of thinking that will be embraced not only by the many fans that have flocked to Covey's prior books, but also by anyone who is seeking resolution in their professional or personal lives.
