We spoke with the book's author, Dr. Mike Moreno, about weight gain with The 17 Day Diet and many of recommendations will certainly help you get over this slump:
Why Am I Gaining Weight on The 17 Day Diet?

Dr. Mike says that for those experiencing a weight gain on the diet, rather than a loss, can likely chalk it up to one of these five reasons:
1. Underhydrated
2. Breaking the strict rule for no carbs - like fruit - after 2 p.m.
3. Not practicing portion control, especially when the starches and carbs are reintroduced
4. Need to increase amount of time and intensity of cardio workouts
5. If you lift weights, use lower weights and more reps with longer wait time between each (muscle is heavier than fat and will cause a weight gain)
