3-Days Military Diet
The 3-days military diet is a short term diet plan that has enabled many people to lose weight quickly even up to 10 pounds a week.
Before embarking on the military diet, however, there are a few important things to keep in mind. For instance, water, and lots of it should be the main drink.
Herbal tea with no caffeine is also recommended. No
snacks are included in this diet because its main tenet is to eat three meals a
day which have the right combination of nutrients and proteins.
Sugar is also excluded in the 3-day diet because of
the insulin reaction and spike it causes. Instead, natural sweeteners such as
Stevia, maple syrup and honey are used.
It is also essential to understand that the amount
of calories intake per day matters a lot. The following is the 3-day meal plan
and schedule designed to help you cut that unwanted weight.
The eating timetable is set at Breakfast - 7:30, Lunch - 13:00, and Dinner – 18:30. However, this is just an example. What time one eats is not as important as how much of calories one takes.

Day ONE:
Breakfast – 1 Slice of Toast (whole wheat), ½ Grapefruit, 2 Tablespoons of peanut butter, and 1 Cup of caffeinated tea or coffee.
NOTE: Caffeinated tea or coffee is taken in the first two meals of Day 1 only. For the rest of the days, only water is taken.
Lunch - 1 Slice of Toast or bread (whole wheat), ½ Cup of Tuna, and 1 Cup of caffeinated tea or coffee.
Dinner – 3 ounces of any type of meat (same size as deck of cards), ½ Banana, 1 Cup of Green Beans, 1 Cup of vanilla ice cream, and 1 small apple.
Tips: Warm the banana and/or apple and eat them over the vanilla ice cream. Cook the meat with the green beans or simmer them in the broth.
Ice cream provides calcium which accelerates the fat burning process.
Day TWO:
Breakfast – 1 Slice of toast or bread (whole wheat), ½ Banana, and 1 egg cooked to one’s preference.
Lunch – 1 Cup of cottage cheese, 5 saltine crackers, and 1 hardboiled egg.
Dinner – 1 Cup of broccoli, 2 hot dogs (without bun), ½ Banana, ½ Cup of carrots, and ½ Cup of vanilla ice cream.
Day THREE:
Breakfast – 1 Slice of cheddar cheese, 5 saltine crackers, and 1 small apple.
Lunch – 1 Slice of toast or bread (whole wheat), and 1 hardboiled egg.
Dinner – ½ Banana, 1 Cup of Tuna, and 1 Cup of vanilla ice cream.
During the 3-day diet plan, a 30-minute jog or walk either in the morning or evening is okay. A 1-hour nap taken between lunch and dinner is also very helpful.
After the 3-day military diet, the stomach will have become smaller thus making one feel full after eating small portions of food. That notwithstanding, it is important to watch what one eats for the remaining four days of the week so as not to gain weight as this would ultimately counter all the weight loss efforts.
During the remaining four days of the week, caloric intake should be kept low overall. Lots of water should also be taken. If coffee or tea is to be taken, then it must black and unsweetened.
However, the results can only be maximized by strictly following the 3-day nutritional plan.
