3 Day Military Diet.
Replies
-
If the doctor told me I had only 4 days to live, I guess I'd give something called the 3 day diet a try.
If the doctor told me I had only 31 days to live, I guess I'd be interested in a workout called the 30 Day Shred.
If the doctor told me that I had 7 weeks to live, maybe 6 Week 6 Pack would be worth a shot.
But since right now I'm planning a living a long time, any diet or fitness plan that only lasts a few days or weeks is not something worth considering0 -
That 3 day diet has been around forever. I did it in high school...the loss is not sustainable. Just my experience. Good luck!0

This is how I look at it - is it something you could healthily and successfully maintain over a lifetime? If so, give it a try. If not, run the heck away from it!
Eat less. Move more. Good luck!!0 -
If you agree that approximately 3500 calories are needed to lose 1 pound*, then you only need to do the math.
10 lb = 35 000 calories deficit
what you normally eat in 3 days = 3 x 2500 calories = 7500 calories
Even if you don't eat anything, how is this going to jump up to 35 000 ?
*of FAT, that is - if you want to lose water it may work.. but where does that get you?0 -

all the truth you need ^^^ right there.0 -
Not a fan! Everyone I know that does it ends up gaining back what they lost. Eat at a deficit and bust your butt in the gym. Diets are temporary, focus on the long term, find a healthy balance for long term lasting success.0

I thought a military diet was just bread and water.

I can't imagine the military actually endorsing something so frightfully and stupidly dangerous, either.0 -

Why do they call it the "military" diet? Doesn't sound remotely like anything the military would do. :laugh:0

Military diet consists of an MRE and a Rip It energy drink. They arnt interested actual programs so much as cutting costs, and how quickly you can scarf it down, before you are Oscar Mike. Lol personally prefer the manicotti MRE.0

All "diets" are stupid. Listen to your body. Do your own research with your own body to find what works for you. Stop trying to find the "easy" way -- the only way that will work for you is your way.0

Has anyone tried it? I recently stumbled across it on Pinterest. It intrigued me, so I put everything in on here.
It gives you a significant amount of calories (So with no exercise, no metabolic destruction.) A lot of fat, and low carbs.
My only concern is that you only eat three times a day, where as in my experience the more often you eat, the better.
Also it says to exercise! But then, that would drop your net below 1,200. Equalling metabolic destruction.
Any thoughts, or experiences to share with me?
I thought eating more frequently was good too, but was shown this today - http://weightology.net/weightologyweekly/?page_id=319
Looks like it's actually good to have a few meals a day.0 -

This needs to be saved and stickied somewhere! Well said Dave!0 -
a girl i know is doing this, she just completed the first day yesterday. personally, i wouldn't do it.....0

Seriously, no. Why would you even bother, when you would get better, more lasting results by just doing it right in the first place? Blah.0
