Military Diet Menu (3 Days Diet)
The Military 3 Day diet is the fastest way to lose pounds in 3 days. The Military Diet Menu is the strict menu for this diet to work out. From the Military Diet Website, it mentions losing up to 10 lbs in a week. The diet plan is effective because it is a low calorie diet plan.
The Military Diet Day 1 Menu Plan
Day 1 Breakfast
- 1 cup of coffee (no sugar, no creamer, caffeinated)
- 1 slice of whole wheat toast with 2 tablespoon peanut butter
- 1/2 grape fruit (I think Pomelo is a good substitute, try 2 slice)
Day 1 Lunch
- 1 cup of coffee (no sugar, no creamer, caffeinated)
- 1 slice of whole wheat toast
- 1/2 cup of tuna
Day 1 Dinner
- 3 ounces of any meat (I used chicken meat)
- 1 cup green beans
- 1/2 banana and 1 plum
- 1 cup vanilla ice cream
The Military Diet Day 2 Menu Plan
Day 2 Breakfast
- 1 egg cooked (any way you like it, I got mine scrambled, no oil, no salt)
- 1 slice of whole wheat toast
- 1/2 banana
Day 2 Lunch
- 1 hard boiled egg
- 5 saline crackers
- 1 cup cottage cheese (but I can’t find any cottage cheese so I just replaced it with a slice of cheddar cheese)
Day 2 Dinner
- 1/2 cup carrots
- 1 cup broccoli
- 2 hot dogs (I can only eat one!)
- 1/2 cup vanilla ice cream
The Military Diet Day 3 Menu Plan
Day 3 Breakfast
- 1 slice of cheddar
- 1 small plum
- 5 saline crackers
Day 3 Lunch
- 1 egg cooked (anyway you liked it, mine was hard boiled)
- 1 slice toast (whole wheat)
Day 3 Dinner
- 1 cup tuna
- 1/2 banana
- 1 cup vanilla ice cream
TIP! TIP! TIP! To make your ice cream nights taste a lot better, microwave the fruits included on the menu for that time and mix it with vanilla ice cream!
THE VERDICT
I lost 3 pounds in 3 days!
WARNING: You can’t do any physically exhausting activity while on diet and you need to take a 4 day rest after the 3 day diet.
Obviously, it is effective when it comes to weight loss. Imagine if I did the diet in a month with a 4 day interval, I can lose to 12 pounds in a month!
WHY I STOPPED DOING THE MILITARY DIET?
It is effective in a short period of time but in the long run it can ruin my metabolism. The diet is a low calorie diet and it does not boost my metabolism. With my age, my main problem is slower metabolism. I need a diet that can speed up my metabolism and so far, the most effective diet on doing that is eating a complete meal every 4 hours.
WHAT IS A COMPLETE MEAL?
A complete meal, as discussed to us by well known Nutritionists Nadine Tengco should be in this proportion:
- 1/2 veggies
- 1/4 protein
- 1/4 carbo.
HOW TO LOSE WEIGHT EFFECTIVELY?
- Eat a complete meal every 4 hours
- Exercise (Metafit is the fastest fat burning exercise, imagine losing as much as 600 calories in just 4 minutes)
- Drink psyllium fiber once everyday
With these 3 simple steps, who needs a Military Diet to lose weight?!? Go ahead and give the Military diet a try and then give the complete meal diet a try too and see the difference.

January 10, 2016 at 8:09 amMy family plans to start a diet on Monday. We are planning lots of lean protein and fresh veggies. The Military diet does sound like a way to lose way quickly.

January 10, 2016 at 12:36 pmWow, very interesting. I knew that being a grazer was probably a good thing bcause my metabolism is going all the time, but I eat small portions so it keeps the tummy small and the metabolism going. Didn’t know about the four hour thing.

January 10, 2016 at 1:30 pmI have not heard of this diet plan before! I don’t think this would be enough food for me, but may be a good way to jump start good eating.

January 10, 2016 at 9:24 pmI’ve never ever heard of this diet…and I thought I had heard about all of them!! This doesn’t look like a lot of food (so I can see how you would lose weight quickly!).

January 11, 2016 at 1:59 amThis is the first I’ve heard of this diet. It surprisingly looks filling and really healthy, which a lot of diets aren’t. I’m not sure my family would be on board but it’s definitely something I want to learn more about.
Jaime Nicole says
January 11, 2016 at 8:27 amAs long as it works for you and helps you be healthy I guess it’s a good plan. I think I would rather focus more on the exercise side of the calorie ledger – I would be so grumpy on that few calories. People would run from me.

January 11, 2016 at 8:43 amI admit when I read military diet I was skeptical but the food looks good. The portions look like they would work too!

January 11, 2016 at 2:56 pmI do much better eating several small meals a day than just three. But, this doesn’t look too bad. I actually like almost all of this.
Ron Leyba says
January 11, 2016 at 6:12 pmI might try this but I don;’t know if this suits my health needs. Must consult the doctors first.
Rebecca Swenor says
January 11, 2016 at 9:44 pmThis Military diet sounds interesting indeed and I may have to try it. At my age I too have a low metabolism but I would be willing to try this diet for a month at least. Thanks for sharing the diet and great job on the weight loss.

January 12, 2016 at 12:48 amHey 3 lbs in 3 days is pretty good!
I am with you on needing something to speed up my metabolism. If I can get myself in routine and actually do what I need to I know that I can lose the weight I added from all those dole whips and churos!

January 12, 2016 at 3:50 ammy friend actually did this diet and had great success. She loved it and had a lot of energy too.
Hannah says
January 12, 2016 at 11:03 amThis diet definitely seems interesting, although I doubt I could go through a day with so little food. lol
Good luck with the dieting plans!

January 13, 2016 at 7:17 amInteresting!!! I’ve never heard of the military diet! Everything actually looks edible to me, which is huge since a lot of diets have crazy foods I would never touch lol.
