    Not too badly at the moment, how about you? (:

    I'm doing great ! Got my calories all counted with 80 to spare ! :) Starting the military diet tomorrow.

    why?!

    I found an app that makes it seem pretty achievable :) I just want something to kick start my weightless. I keep failing ..

    its a vlcd that is unsustainable and completely lacking in nutrition...

    why not just use MFP!?

    You only do it for 3 days...some people believe in intermittent fasting to boost metabolism...it's not a long-term commitment . At least it won't be for me ahha..it's just fun to try new things sometimes .

    :huh: the military diet has absolutely NOTHING to do with IF....

    Of course it's achievable. The amount of calories you eat is pretty manageable, but hot dogs? Ice cream? Saltines? Why don't you stick to the same calories, but switch those foods for foods that are actually nutrient dense. You're going to 'kick start' your diet with any kind of foods, because you'll shed water weight first.

    On cronometer.com you can add your food intake and see exactly which minerals, vitamins and breakdowns of your macros you are getting in. It's awesome you want to lose weight, just do it in a healthy way! I eat 1200-1300 calories a day, but make sure I get all the nutrients I need every single day. You wont get that with this diet.

    To be honest, I know that but I just felt like trying something different ! It's only for 3 days...it won't kill me

    Hi everyone. 'Thought I'd join in if that's ok. :) I've heard good things about intermittent fasting as I've been researching a LCHF diet. I know nothing about the military diet. From my own experience, the source of the calories (specifically fats/proteins versus carbs) makes a difference in how the scale looks and in my bloodwork. That said, we all have our own journey. :)

    Thank you for your insight! From the research I've done it should do harm and there is lots of articles on the M.D ...it's kindve interesting so I thought why not ...aha :) Everyone's journey definitely is different ! And I would definitely say the military diet is a thousand times healthier than all the sugar I eat. Lol! That's a joke

    You guys I noticed this messaging is very glitchy...huge pieces of what I type doesn't show up except the first sentence sometimes. And them entire posts aren't there...very strange.
