Military diet

It's stupid. Don't do this!!

Any diet that has you eating fewer calories than your body uses per day can work. That said, this diet is pretty unnecessarily restrictive and I would get bored and hangry with it, personally.

whenever anyone mentions it I think of MREs

I have'nt heard of it so I found their website and found this "The Military Diet, or the 3 day diet, is a fast way to lose up to 10 pounds a week."hummm.....Also I had no idea that they had Yogurt Parfait for breakfast along with Cinnamon Oatmeal, Florentine Goat Cheese Flatbread and1/2 cup sorbet 

1 ounce chocolate-covered almond in the military; maybe its just the top brass. I wonder which army it is and what wine they have with each course?

I really believe that this diet was started as a joke and even the author can't believe people still try it.

My thoughts exactly.

Which sounds sad! Unless they come with brownies!

They come with chocolate bars, neat little mini loaves of bread, peanut butter in a toothpaste tube. It's like the neatest little picnic, lol

My ex got really mad when he found out my friend and I stole all the little M&M packs out of his MREs...

The new ones do come with quite a choice in entrees and deserts.

The nutritional information is also available now

Only two real problems I see:
1) They are made for young men on the bounce and so pack around 1250 cals per meal.
2) $$$ for civilians. 12 meals in a case from $50 to $75.

"They're not your grandfather's MREs!"

Dumb diet. I can't say anything kind about it.

But u do feel hungry a lot, i cheated a bit i still had my coffee with milk once a day

Well, it's officially January. Let the cleanse diets begin. Seriously, a big waste of time. Eat less, move more.

Idk what this is, but I'm pretty sure the military diet is caffeine pills and beef jerky. So yeah, don't do that.
