Rule of thumb. If something is called "The [Something] Diet" and boasts "Lose up to [x] lbs in [y] days", it's not even worth your time or bandwidth to click on the link.
This. Common sense for the win.0 -
Are you talking about the creamed chipped beef on toast diet? I thought we had moved beyond that barbarism. (Though, I loved it as a kid!)
Oh, nostalgia. I loved that stuff too. I remember something just like that with asparagus as well.
As for a military diet, check out Bataan, I heard they got wicked skinny. (too soon?)0 -

OMG I actually agree with you :laugh:
That is an excellent rule of thumb.0 -

This would be the one, yep. I always marvel at how people can fall for the idea that those foods of have chemical interactions that magically drop pounds.....seriously....hot dogs???0 -

don't do it, MREs taste like butt and they are NOT low cal.
I kind of liked MREs. Well, as long as I avoided the "bad" ones.0 -
Is that the diet where you dont get breakfast due to budget cuts?
Haha I like you.0 -
This. Just eat healthy and move your body. End. Of. Story. I read a girls post who did it and said she had to choke her grapefruit down. Why eat it if you have to choke it down? Just eat mindfully and eat what you like.We're on a roll here today with the fad diet threads.
This is basically an anorexic diet.

any diet that tells you to eat hot dogs and ice cream every day is no diet that i think would be beneficial for weight loss/health needs0

I came across a pin on Pinterest for the military diet. Read the plan and it's really easy to follow. 3 days on (eating their food plan) and 4 days off (still eating healthy but not following their meal plan). It boasts that you can lose up to 40 lbs in a month if done correctly. Anyone try this diet? Thoughts? Success? Bad reviews?
1) Anyone in the military (or prior service) will tell you that they're not eating hotdogs and grapefruit...
2) Folks in the military usually eat more than what's defined in the diet and they exercise.0
