500 calorie malitiary diet ^_^

Wait, what?
You're planning on consuming only 500 cals/day? In order to lose roughly 50 lbs in 7 weeks?
That's not safe, healthy, or realistic.

What on earth makes you think this is a good idea? Where did you hear about this "challenge"? Why the rush to lose the weight?

The military doesn't eat this way.
