This eating plan is a weekly cycle that involves dieting for 3 days and then taking 4 days off from the set meal plan. This cycle is repeated week after week until you have achieved your desired weight loss goals (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/themilitarydiet.com\/military-diet-plan\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Supporters of this diet claim that the military diet was designed by the US military nutritionists as a way to get the men and women in the military in tip-top shape as quickly as possible. They also state that you can lose 10 pounds in a week following this eating plan (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/themilitarydiet.com\/military-diet-plan\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). However, despite these claims, it should be noted that this eating plan is not affiliated with any military or government institution (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthline.com\/nutrition\/the-military-diet-101\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">18<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Is_The_Difference_Between_A_Military_Diet_And_A_10-Day_Military_Diet_Plan\"><\/span>What Is The Difference Between A Military Diet And A 10-Day Military Diet Plan?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The major and only difference between these two diets is the number of days that it is done. Unlike the original eating plan that is done on a 7-day cycle &#8211; 3 days on, 4 days off, the 10 day military diet is done for 3 days on, 4 days off, and another 3 days on. Like the original diet, you are required to repeat the 10 day military diet cycle until you reach your desired weight.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>BetterMe app will kick you out of the mental funk, shake off your extra weight, rid you off you energy-zapping habits, and help you sculpt the body of your dreams.

Ordinarily, men and women need 2500 calories and 2000 calories a day to maintain their weight. This number, however, is determined by age, weight, height, level of physical activity, and more (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhs.uk\/live-well\/eat-well\/cut-down-on-your-calories\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">8<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As seen above, the dieting days require you to eat around a thousand calories a day. This number is incredibly low for both men and women, who, according to Harvard Medical School, should not consume less than 1500 calories and 1200 calories a day, respectively (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.health.harvard.edu\/staying-healthy\/calorie-counting-made-easy\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). In light of this, the 10 day military diet can be classified as a very-low-calorie diet, especially on the 6 dieting days of the <a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/soft-food-diet\/\">eating plan<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Very-low-calorie diets are rapid weight-loss programs in which calories are extremely restricted. These diets are done under medical supervision and are often used to help obese patients achieve significant, short-term weight loss as part of a comprehensive weight-loss program. After a given amount of time, these patients are then set on a healthier eating plan to help them maintain their weight loss (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.verywellfit.com\/what-is-a-very-low-calorie-diet-3496286\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">20<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the 4 off days, you will be eating up to 1500 calories of a less restrictive diet, which has a fewer number of calories than most people need. In light of these two factors, you are creating a calorie deficit on all 10 days of the military diet. For those who are unaware, a calorie deficit is an energy deficit created when you eat less food than your body requires. When you do this, your body turns to stored fat, which it uses as a source of energy or fuel (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.verywellfit.com\/what-is-a-calorie-deficit-3495538\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Read More:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/different-types-of-diets\/\">Different Types Of Diets: The Lowdown On The Most Talked-About Weight Loss Strategies<\/a><\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/quiz.betterme.world\/first-page-generated?flow=2228&amp;utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=The_10_Day_Military_Diet\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-38861 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Frame-5180-1024x576.png\" alt=\"BetterMe\" width=\"770\" height=\"433\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Frame-5180.png 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Frame-5180-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Frame-5180.png 768w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Frame-5180.png 1344w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 770px) 100vw, 770px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Military_Diet_Can_You_Lose_10_Pounds_In_3_Days\"><\/span><b>Military Diet: Can You Lose 10 Pounds In 3 Days?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No, you cannot. Despite the amazing weight loss results promised by the 10 day military diet, you can&#8217;t lose 10 pounds in 10 days, let alone in just 3 days. Here is the reason why:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For you to lose 1 pound of fat (or 0.4 kilograms) a day, you have to burn about 3500 calories a day (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mayoclinic.org\/healthy-lifestyle\/weight-loss\/in-depth\/calories\/art-20048065\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">6<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). As seen above, men and women do not consume this much calories even when they are maintaining their weight. The 10 day military diet is incredibly restrictive on energy intake on 6 days of the week and allows you just 4 days of a more adjustable but still caloric deficit diet.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With this, it is clear that a person on the 10 days military diet cannot burn 3500 calories a day to lose 1 pound. Even if you were to add a workout regimen to your days, you would still not achieve a weight loss goal of 10 pounds in 3 days. After all, you cannot burn what you do not have or consume.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The only people who might have a chance to burn these many calories are professional athletes who consume more than 3500 calories a day. Professional athletes cannot survive on a 10 day military diet as they can consume up to 8000 or 12000 calories a day while training (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/sections\/thesalt\/2012\/07\/24\/157317262\/how-many-calories-do-olympic-athletes-need-it-depends\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">10<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/quiz.betterme.world\/first-page-generated?flow=2228&amp;utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=The_10_Day_Military_Diet\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-38860 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Frame-5182-1024x576.png\" alt=\"10 day military diet\" width=\"770\" height=\"433\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Frame-5182.png 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Frame-5182-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Frame-5182.png 768w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Frame-5182.png 1344w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 770px) 100vw, 770px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_The_10-Day_Military_Diet_Plan_Healthy_Or_Safe\"><\/span><b>Is The 10-Day Military Diet Plan Healthy Or Safe?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No, it is not.

If you were to follow a 10 day military diet plan for a month, it would mean that you were following an unsupervised very-low-calorie diet plan for about 18 days of the month.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some temporary side effects of such a diet plan include fatigue, constipation, nausea, and diarrhea. In some cases, some people can get gallstones, which is a serious side effect caused by VLCDs, such as the 10 day military diet (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/diet\/low-calorie-diets#1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">19<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Causes_Rapid_Weight_Loss\"><\/span><b>Causes Rapid Weight Loss<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The 10 day military diet plan also causes rapid weight loss, which is not only unhealthy. It also leads to side effects such as mood swings, headaches, hair and muscle loss, irritability, dizziness, and menstrual irregularities in women. If you follow this diet for long, it can lead to dangerous and life-threatening effects, such as malnutrition (nutrient deficiencies), slower metabolism, dehydration, and gallstones (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/diet\/guide\/rapid-weight-loss#1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">13<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"It_Is_High_In_Added_Salt_Sugar_And_Saturated_Fat\"><\/span>It Is High In Added Salt, Sugar, And Saturated Fat<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The recommended diet calls for foods like tuna, bread, saltines, hot dogs, vanilla ice cream, and cheese, all of which are highly processed and high in sugars and trans fats.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The recommended amount of salt in your diet is about 2300 milligrams a day.

Such an eating plan ensures that your body has all the nutrients it requires to work effectively.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A balanced diet has vitamins, carbohydrates, protein, and healthy fats.
