    Hi! I'm looking for a simple and easy 3 day diet that won't be noticeable by my co-workers. I'm wanting to surprise them by losing weight quickly. I don't want to draw attention to the fact that I'm dieting. (It's kind of embarrassing)

    and on day four? ? ? ? ? ?

    Day four, you go back to normal.

    So it accomplishes nothing, what is the point? Any smidge of weight you manage to lose on days 1-3 will be back on days 4-6.

    why do you want to surprise your co-workers with weight loss?????

    this makes no sense...

    Hmm. Wants to do a "healthier lifestyle" so her mother doesn't freak out because family history of eating disorders, yet thinks 3-day diet is good idea.

    Hmm.

    "Diets" do not work. Eat healthy, exercise and realize that CICO is the only thing that will work... period. BTW, in 3 days you may lose water. Not trying to be mean, just being real.

    no one will notice 5 pounds. probably not even YOU

    and a mentality of a quick fix is an indication of a potential eating disorder.

    It's impossible to lose a noticeable amount of real weight in 3 days. You could eat literally nothing and you're still only going to net a couple of pounds (yes, there will be some water weight, but that will come back the first time you swallow anything).

    I need to say that your coworkers will not notice a 3 day weight loss. A 3 day diet seems frivolous to me. I suggest that you act in a way at work where you will be taken seriously.

    3 days isn't long enough to teach you healthy eating habits, and 'going back to normal' isn't going to help you keep whatever success you might have.

    I just want to use the 3 day as a jumpstart to a healthier diet altogether. I actually have completely given up on the idea now. Y'all have been UBER helpful! Thanks!

    hmmm in your OP you said you wanted to lose five pound to impress your co-workers…but now you are saying that this is a "jumpstart?"

    Yea, no …sorry, it does not work that way.

    Make the changes to have long term success and stop yo yo dieting ...
