    So if this were a matter of being able to keep your standing in the National Guard, perhaps you should have been really busting your backside at this MONTHS ago, not a few weeks before the deadline. The amount you need to lose in the timeframe you need to lose it in is pretty much not doable, and like others have said if you do manage to lose the weight in time, you're going to be hating life. Hopefully for your sake there's no PT to go with it or you're going to end up in medical.
  • I don't get the obsession with too much protein. As a member of the military, you can use the extra help in building and repairing muscle. Not to mention, muscle in turn burns calories. The amount of calories you're attempting to take in is very unhealthy. 1200 minimum. That's why you're getting scolded when you log, because it's the rule of thumb. Get a scale. Measuring cups are okay but not accurate.
    she isnt going to be building any muscle eating so little calories,I dont know if that little would even be enough to repair muscle.
