Military Diet – Lose 10 Pounds In 3 Days

It’s always good to have a go-to diet plan which helps to lose some extra pounds in a couple of days.

The military diet is one of the world’s most popular diets when it comes to losing weight fast. For a reason!

This diet helps to lose up to 10 pounds in 3 days and does in a healthy way.

Yes! 10 pounds, 3 days and without sacrificing your health.

Sounds great, doesn’t it?

In this article, I will share a meal plan for the military diet which worked for me 😉

I’m sure it will work for you, just as well.

Schedule

The military diet consists of two phases.

Even though it is called 3-day diet, it’s a 7-day routine that can be repeated until the goal is reached.

The first phase – a 3-day diet – strictly pre-defined meal plan.

The second phase – 4 days of healthy, under-1,500 calories diet without restrictions.

Key moments

Daily calories – 1,100 – 1,400

Meals – 3 times

Phases – 2

Why does it work so well?

This diet works for almost everyone and there’s definitely a reason behind it.

1,400 calorie limit – which is way lower than what an average person consumes throughout the regular day.

Strict schedule – eating on time has a lot of benefits for your health. Healthy weight loss is definitely one of them.

Healthy meal plan – the meal plan below is not only healthy. It is claimed to represent the food combinations that help to increase your metabolism and therefore burn extra fat faster.

The second phase (the remaining 4 days)

There are no restrictions other than limiting your calorie intake to 1,500 calories per day.

(Needless to say, you still need to eat healthy food ^_^)

You can repeat this 7-day routine as much as you need to until your initial goal is reached.
