3 Day Diet, Lose 10 lbs

this diet will work, thats also why it is called the Army diet, for the armed forces

Just came off this diet about a week ago. Went from 188 to 183. While it wasn't 10 pounds, I only did it for 3 days and then continued by 1,610 daily intake with Myfitnesspal, that said, it was loss which I had not seen in months.

I am using myfitnesspal and current calorie intake is 1,610 + several jogs a week of at least 4 miles and I am not losing anything =X

I tried this diet as a last resort having seen no loss with a "goal deadline" quickly approaching and it worked for me.

I tried the diet and actually did well on it! Grant-it, I did NOT lose 10 lbs, but that's okay, because my goal was only 3 lbs, and I lost 4. It is possible to keep the weight off if you keep to a healthy diet after that. With this diet you eat those specific foods for 3 days, healthy diet for 4 days, and then you can go back on. It can be done consistently or you can do it to get a boost on a new diet. Really, if you can outlast the 3 days, then eating healthy and healthy portions is easy! What the diet does is help to curb some of those cravings for sweets and high fat foods. From my personal results, I think that if you really want to lose 10 lbs in 3 days you're going to have to do some SERIOUS cardio...I power walk twice a day for a total of 1.5 hours, and that was not enough to lose 10 lbs. But! I let myself go over the last week due to some stress eating, so I'm back on Day 1! If anyone wants to join me, I could use a buddy!!:happy:

There is ZERO measurable fat loss on this diet. ZERO. Any scale weight is "water" weight. Period. End of story. Any long-term success after it is the result of a caloric deficit over a sufficient period of time to lose fat, but it isn't this diet that causes that. This diet manipulates a number on a scale that has no meaningful impact whatsoever.

The "trick" to maintaining meaningful loss is a calorie deficit over time. Period.

What you're calling "stress eating" where you regained is likely your body's natural reaction to too large of a calorie deficit...and the weight you inevitably regain after this diet isn't regained fat, but replenished glycogen stores (aka "water" weight).

*sigh*

Don't mind me. I'm just hangry from my second week of a ~600 calorie daily deficit of a two month cut...(during which I expect to actually lose some fat).

3 Day Diet, Lose 10 lbs, then gain it all back again.

I have been this diet before and it works. I am on it now this is my second week and I have lost 10lb. working on the next 10lb. but when you get off you have to workout and get better than you did before or like all diets you are going to gain it back plus some. I learned about this diet at work at the hospital, if they needed people to lose weight fast to do a operation they would do this diet and it worked so I tried it. a diet only works if you want to lose the weight and workout. but each their own.
