Aside from its fast diet efficacy, there are several other factors that contribute to the widespread popularity of the Military Diet. The military diet is currently one of the world’s most popular “diets.” It is claimed to help you lose weight quickly, up to 10 pounds (4.5 kg) in a single week. 6 things other than water you can drink to lose weight. I believe someone told me it has to do with they types of foods and when we eat them for this to work. However, I did deviate a bit from this plan. I am hypoglycemic and I cannot have sugar so I omitted the ice cream at the end of the day and added creamer to my coffee. This could be the reason I only lost 7.

Neelsays: April 1. I am allergic to apples and bananas, what is a good substitute? Reply. Jennifersays: April 1. Oh Rae. Neel I dont’ know that I would try this Military diet then. There isn’t much to eat on it anyway and I’m not certain what the substitutes are for those foods. The Paleo diet does not work as fast but it’s much easier and you can eat much more. I would try that. Unless anyone else has a better suggestion for substitutes. Hopefully that helps. Good Luck! Taylorsays: April 1. I know the diet says coffee and tea but what about water throughout the day ? ![]() Can I drink as much as I want? Reply. Jennifersays: April 1. Thanks for that awesome question Taylor. I’ve just updated the post with some really good water consumption information. As a general rule, you should try and drink 1/2 your body weight in ounces of water. And I swapped a few things ( didnt have apples so I ate canned parts instead, also don’t have grape fruit so I had manderin oranges instead) I lost 8 pounds!!! Thank you so much! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() What can I eat on day three of the 3 day military diet? Day 3 menu.

I’m happy to hear about the substitutes too! Thanks so much for sharing your results! This is no scam! I say that but I did substitute the ice cream for coffee creamer. I’ve tried asking my friend and she doesn’t know either. I highly suggest using My. Fitness. Pal. com (free) to track your food intake and it will tell you exact calories you are taking in. I should have done this! Now I am curious. Reply. Laura Mc. Crillissays: April 1. What type of cheese, sliced American singles? Thanks for sharing! I’m going to try this and update you with my results and myfitnesspal tracking. Reply. Jennifersays: April 2. I used a slice of Cheddar (the generic kind). I think Mozzarella is the lowest in fat but it didn’t specify in the plan. Let me know how it goes Laura! Replyalyshiasays: April 1. Im have to try this. But I cant stand tuna with out mayo. What to do? Reply. Jennifersays: April 2. I am 1. 00% with you on this one Alyshia! I stuck to the diet but I added Montreal Steak Seasoning to my tuna without Mayo. First time ever and I really enjoyed it! In fact, I use it every single time now without Mayo. You should give it a try. You can find this seasoning anywhere. It looks like this: amzn. VSLO3.

Did you gain the 7 pounds right back when after this diet or no? Reply. Jennifersays: May 7, 2. I didn’t because I started eating better on the Paleo lifestyle. Anyone else??? Reply. Lilosays: May 7, 2. I did it & only lost 5 lbs : / but it was a good kick off so I’m going to continue this diet. Reply. Annasays: May 8, 2. I did this diet as told and only lost 3 lbs. Also there was not enough fiber in the diet! It caused me to get an anal fissure and suffer much pain and embarrassment! Would not recommend. Reply. Jennifersays: May 8, 2. I’m sorry it caused you pain. I’ve not heard of that before. I think 3 pounds is still pretty significant though. Reply. Sandysays: May 8, 2. Hi.

Im guessing that maybe because I dont have that mutch to loose that m weightloss wont be has high or does it not matter what you weigh you will still loose heaps? Anyone else have advice for Sandy? Reply. Feliciasays: May 1. Day 1 & im feeling good. I do exercise regularly but decided to do the diet on my rest days. In regards to fiber maybe you should load up on fiber thd day before and then again after. But the wheat toast & apples have fiber in them so it will keep you moving! Im tracking my results on myfitnesspal. Reply. Jennifersays: May 1. Awesome Felicia! Keep us posted!!! Reply. Laurasays: May 1. I did this when I was in the military and it worked. My physician also told me that it was approved by the Mayo Heart Clinic for heart patients who need to drop weight fast for surgeries. It worked great for me! Reply. Jennifersays: May 1. Really?!!! Thanks for sharing Laura!!! Appreciate your feedback! Replykarensays: May 1. I’m on day 2 of this diet but the menu that I saw on another website said one cup of cottage cheese on day 2 for lunch. Reply. Jennifersays: May 1. I did not have cottage cheese in this diet. Never tried it. If you do, let me know how it goes. Reply. Stephaniesays: May 2. I had this on the menu that I had too. Cottage cheese is really good for you and aids in weight loss. I have noticed that almost every diet out there has cottage cheese on the plan. I like cottage cheese and on Day 2 I actually did the cottage cheese instead. I switched to the block cheese and had a thin slice of that for Day 3 breakfast and cut it into 5 pieces and put them on my saltine crackers and ate them that way. Reply. Amber R. says: May 1. Can anyone give some examples of what they ate for the 3oz meat, thanks in advance! Reply. Jennifersays: May 1. I ate Tuna, Salmon, Chicken breast and Roast beef. Hope that helps. Reply. Amber R. says: May 1. Awesome, thanks for your help! Reply. Stephaniesays: May 2. I portioned out a steak that had the Montreal Seasoning on that Jennifer mentioned she put onto her tuna. Which I might add is REALLY good on the tuna as well. I put it on everything! I started day 1 today, I substituted apple for a peach because I have chrons and my body does not digest them well. I will substitute with peaches and plums. We’ll see!!! Reply. Jennifersays: May 2. Good Luck Crystal! Please let us know how the Peach substitution goes! We are all curious. Replycrystalsays: May 2. Thank you! I don’t feel very hungry and when I do start to feel a little hungry (like on day 1 and 2) I just went and chugged water. It’s proven that if you drink a lot of water not only is it good for your body, it will prevent you from putting a lot of food into your mouth come meal times. I will continue to day 7 and not eat a bunch of junk but won’t limit myself. Can’t wait to post results. Thank you so much Jennifer for posting this. I found you via Pinterest by the way!! That’s AWESOME!!!! Replyfredsays: May 2. The way you lose weight in the military is partially by what you eat, but MOSTLY BY THE FACT THAT YOU’RE UP EVERY MORING AT 0. RUNNING. GET OFF THE COUCH AND GO. Reply. Jennifersays: May 2. I agree Fred!! Thanks for commenting! Reply. Jen Tolliversays: June 2. This is the cardiac diet. It is used for the overweight patients who need to lose weight immediately. Reply. Jennifersays: July 7, 2. Oh that’s good to know Jen! Thanks for sharing!!! It really does work! Replyalliesays: July 8, 2. Is it bad if u sneak a cup of coffee on the second day? Reply. Jennifersays: July 1. I must have my coffee daily. Military Diet Substitutes - 3 Day Military Diet . Berries also don’t have the sour aftertaste that some hate with eating grapefruits. Choosing raspberries or blackberries also keeps your carbohydrate and sugar grams in check. And your body will be one or the other. Some believe that fat flourishes in an acidic environment. Foods that make the body more alkaline will help the body’s p. H balance. Grapefruit and baking soda happen to be two of the items that make the body more alkaline and burn fat. To Substitute Peanut Butter: Nut allergies are some of the most common allergies in the world. There are others that just don’t like the taste of peanut butter. Two tablespoons of unsalted/unflavored sunflower seeds will work as well. To Substitute Bread: To make the 3 Day military diet gluten free you will need have a substitute for bread. You can eat 1/4 cup of sunflower seeds, a protein bar of similar carbs, or 1/4 cup of greek yogurt as long as you include 1/2 teaspoon of flax seeds for fiber. Two rice cakes or two small rice tortillas will be an okay glutten- free substitute for bread as well. To Substitute Coffee: Green tea is a great coffee substitute and possibly a healthy drink altogether. The important part about the coffee or tea in the morning is the caffeine. A great substitution for this caffeinated drink is green tea. Green Tea smoothie for weight loss contains EGCG. Roast cocoa beans will also work in a pinch. Salmon and tuna are two very different types of fish. Cooked kale or Swiss chard makes a great choice as well. The meat portion is important for the protein intake for those on the 3 day military diet. A cup of applesauce is close. To Substitute Broccoli: Broccoli is one of the best things you can eat. Spinach, Swiss chard, or Brussels sprouts barely work as alternatives. To Substitute Cheddar Cheese: Cheddar cheese can be substituted with eggs, cottage cheese or ham. If you are going the vegan route you can substitute in soy cheese or soy milk. Cabbage and tofu work if you need to stay off dairy. To Substitute the Hot Dog: Hot dogs get the most flack of all items on this diet. They’re important for the synergy of the foods you eat on Day 2. They aren’t great substitutions for the 3 Day Military Diet because of the fat mismatch. Peanut butter or almond butter almost work better and will also work for the vegetarians in the group. To Substitute Apple: Carrots can work as apple substitutions for the 3 Day Military Diet. For the vegans you’ll have to go back to almond butter. To Substitute the Saltine crackers: Rice cakes for saltine crackers are fair substitutions for the 3 Day Military Diet.
