The military Diet

If it worked for you before, why are you doing it again?

The Military Diet and all it's previous names (it's had many at this point - using other organisations such The Cleveland Clinic's name without their permission, etc) has no connection to the military, it's just an assortment of low calorie foods that do nothing specifically to help you lose weight other than putting you into a high calorie deficit, you lose a bunch of water weight and then put it back on again when you return to eating normally. It's a crash diet and doesn't work long term.

A useful insight to any lurkers who might be tempted into it.

Water fast and the military diet - I would be a serious *kitten* to live with and my husband would probably force feed me chocolate on day 2.

Have you given any thought to implementing some long term strategies to helping achieve your goals and sustain your success - rather than looking for short term fads like water fasting and the military diet - neither of which is going to result in more than temporary water weight loss?

This is one of the sillier made-up fad diets around. Really, if you're going to undereat, at least undereat nutrient-dense food to minimize the damage you're doing to your body.
