I read about the military diet, you can lose up to 10 pounds in 3 days. Has anyone tried it and does it really work?

    Do you plan on staying on this "diet" for the rest of your years? That is the answer to your question.

    and now The 5 bite diet. :'(

    Scheduling that in... hmm this one is out of order, throws the whole schedule off. I need to go have a stern talk with the OP on that one.

    Right after the raspberry ketones. And for anyone interested, coconut oil comes up after that.

    Don't do dumb diets. Stop falling for woo and fads.

    Read the forums and see how to lose weight in a healthy and sustainable way.

    It's unnecessarily restrictive, and doesn't teach you anything about how to keep the weight off once you've lost it.
    Just plug you stats into NFL and the # of calories that it tells you.

    Does it work? If you are in caloric deficit, anything will work.

    More to the point, is it necessary? No. Is it a smart idea? No. Restriction diets, and fad diets are rarely a good idea, both health wise, and weight loss wise. You will likely put any weight you lost right back on. In addition, weight lost is likely water weight.

    If you want to lose weight, eat at a caloric deficit. If you want to lose weight healthily, eat a variety of food with a reasonable caloric deficit. If you want to keep the weight off, understand that this is a lifestyle change, and ensure that the 'diet' you are on is sustainable.


    Thanks for your input, at this point I feel like I've tried everything.. that's why when I saw this I didn't think it would be bad, but I see the downfall it has.
