So today is the first day that I'm going to give the military diet a try. It's only three days I believe I can do it. It's just over 1000 calories per day. The scale needs to to move. Hoping this will be a trajectory toward my weight goal.
Wish me luck!

Why not enter your stats into MFP and eat accordingly? The military diet is ridiculous and teaches you nothing about eating for the rest of your life.1

woah and this too^^^ A head scratcher. LOL1 -
I just don't understand how anyone can fall for this diet when it insists that hot dogs have some magical weight loss property to them.2
-
This isn't a diet. It's stupid.2
-
Funny, we did have hot dogs in basic. Putting a bandaid on a sucking chest wound.0
-
Oh honey. So sorry you feel you need to do such ridiculous things to lose weight. I wish you luck in finding a healthy sustainable way to lose weight rather than a crash diet filled with junk.2

We are not seeking to be negative to your desire to lose weight, but we want you to realize success is not from some fad that doesn't teach you anything about eating a proper calorie amount, so with that, what everyone else has said.2

I'm going to be trying it too.. not all diets are the same.. you're not eating just one of something or realying on some sort of beverage to get you through the day.. the military diet allows you to eat a variety of real food and most of it is quite healthy or stuff you would have as a treat like ice cream.. sometimes you gotta trying something new or different or even something that's not recommended to kick start your weight loss.. as long as you return to a more natural healthy way of eating that suits your needs at the end of the diet.. trying it once or even a few times is fine in my opinion!0

I did it to kick me into a new frame of mind and that's what led me here, as a way to keep track of what I ate now that the three days are over. I agree that hot dogs are not a magical diet food and in fact I really dislike them but it was easy to follow this diet and I didn't need to prepare special meals for myself as I was trying to feed my kids and husband their regular food. I would probably never do it again, but I think this once it was the kick in the pants I needed. I weigh myself for the first time since starting it on Sunday, so fingers crossed! 0 -
Keep in mind the military diet is meant to be a temporary way to show a quick drop in what's there. It isn't good for your body and doesn't give any permanent results. It's called the military diet because service members would do something like that just before their fitness assessment to pass their weight standards! Have a plan and stick with it! You can do it!0

Actually this diet has nothing to do with the military or how service members would eat. It is just a marketing ploy, an appeal to authority. It is a VLC fad diet that does not teach individuals long term, sustainable habits to be successful with weight loss.
Edited to add - I know you aren't promoting it, I just wanted to clarify that from the vast number of times this thread is posted on these boards, it has become painfully clear that this has nothing to do with the Military.4 -

OR....
You could enter your stats in MFP, set a reasonable goal with an appropriate calorie deficit, eat a variety of foods that you enjoy within that calorie goal, logging accurately and consistently, and lose weight in a way that is sustainable rather than relying on a fad VLCD.1 -
This diet is dangerous and stupid.

Right? The more bizarre the better too. I was thinking about the cover yourself in peanut butter and wrap yourself in tin foil before bed diet. The peanut butter will melt away the fat, and the tin foil will help you sweat away the excess water weight. Plus spot reduction! Hey? Imma be rich!2 -

It's great. I am on Week 3 and I have lost 4 lbs. The scale has not moved in years.0

Idk why everyone is against this yet everyone on here says to eat less calories to achieve fat loss. ITS ONLY 3 DAY PEOPLE! And how you all are saying a hot dog isn't nutritious...... It's says on the military diet site that it's not. They know that themselves. This is just a method to move the scale a little faster. It's not a life long thing. Just a quick fix. And the weight that you loose from it will stay off as long as you continue to eat right and work out.1
