According to Medical News Today, during these three days, your daily calorie intake must be between 1100 and 1400 (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.medicalnewstoday.com\/articles\/323952\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">8<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That said, when crafting this 3-day 10-pound meal plan, make sure that your calorie limit is within this range. Again, take note of the food group balance. Medical News Today states that the diet is rich in proteins and low in carbs, fats, and calories (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.medicalnewstoday.com\/articles\/323952\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">8<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ideally, the low carbs, fat, and calorie content is meant to help with <a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/10-day-military-diet\/\">weight loss<\/a>. Consumption of a low fat, carbs, and calorie diet helps burn fat by boosting metabolism (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.medicalnewstoday.com\/articles\/323952\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">8<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). Please note that you have to use the correct food combinations for you to shed 10 pounds.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"After_How_Long_Will_You_Lose_10_Pounds_Using_The_3-Day_Military_Diet\"><\/span><b>After How Long Will You Lose 10 Pounds Using The 3-Day Military Diet?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The question of how fast you can lose pounds is important, perhaps because most people hope to lose weight on the spot. Unfortunately, healthy weight loss demands gradual and steady interventions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) states that theoretically, healthy weight loss entails shedding one or two pounds within a week (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/healthyweight\/losing_weight\/index.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). Despite this guideline, Medical News Today states that at least one website which discusses the military diet suggests that you can lose 10 pounds in one week (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.medicalnewstoday.com\/articles\/323952\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">8<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). This means that you could shed up to 30 pounds if you followed this meal plan religiously for a month.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Despite this, keep in mind that such tremendous weight loss in such a short duration rates as unhealthy weight loss. So, again, WebMD acknowledges that such rapid weight loss is harmful and should not be encouraged as it leads to fatal health problems, including gallstones, dehydration, and nutrient deficiencies (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/diet\/guide\/rapid-weight-loss#1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5<\/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\/4-days-military-diet\/\">4-Day Military Diet: Is Slashing Your Daily Calories So Drastically The Answer?<\/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=3_Day_10_Pound_Diet\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-32594 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/3-7-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"3 day 10 pound diet\" width=\"770\" height=\"433\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/3-7.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/3-7-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/3-7.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/3-7-1636x920.jpg 1636w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/3-7.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 770px) 100vw, 770px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Will_The_3-Day_10-Pound_Military_Diet_Help_You_Lose_Weight\"><\/span><b>Will The 3-Day 10-Pound Military Diet Help You Lose Weight?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The answer is probably. Let us review a bit on the <a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/3-day-diet-plan\/\">weight loss concept<\/a>. If you want to lose weight, you must consume fewer calories than your body is burning. Typically, an average adult female must consume 2000 calories daily and an average adult male 2500 calories (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.medicalnewstoday.com\/articles\/245588#:~:text=Recommended%20daily%20calorie%20intakes%20in,used%20in%20the%20human%20body.\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To lose weight, one must consume a diet less than the indicated daily calorie amount. Now, remember that we stated that the military diet restricts your daily calorie consumption between 1100 and 1400 calories. Therefore, the limit is enough to help trigger weight loss by maintaining a calorie deficit.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, note that the <a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/7-days-diet-challenge\/\">calorie restriction<\/a> is only bound for three days. You are allowed to go back to your normal eating habits and plan after the three days. In most cases, individuals will try to \u201cmake up\u201d for the things they are restricted from consuming during the three days.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Again, there are higher chances of overeating and indulging with high calorie, junk, processed or unhealthy foods. This means that you might revert to old unhealthy <a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/cabbage-soup-diet-for-2-weeks\/\">eating habits<\/a> such as eating a calorie surplus, which does not promote weight loss.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is hard to maintain this diet long-term because of its restrictive nature. Due to this, the possibility of gaining pounds during the four normal eating days is still very high. Therefore, it makes the answer to whether you can lose weight using this meal plan unclear.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>BetterMe app is a foolproof way to go from zero to a weight loss hero in a safe and sustainable way!

This means that you are following a specific <a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/fat-burning-cabbage-soup\/\">eating plan<\/a> that restricts you to a particular number of calories every day of the week. However, this concept does not apply to this American 10-pound 3-day diet.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As mentioned earlier, this meal plan involves dividing your week into two sections. The first section consists of the first three days of the week. During this period, you will consume <a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/lose-70-pounds-in-6-months\/\">low-calorie<\/a>, healthy foods with low carbs and fat content.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Talk to your nutritionist if you do not know a low-calorie meal plan that can promote weight loss. Even so, we will provide two samples of the low-calorie meals you are required to consume during this period.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Note that you shouldn\u2019t snack during this period. Instead, you are restricted to three main diets; breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The other section consists of the remaining four days of the week. After that, you are asked to go back to your normal eating plan and adhere to your daily calorie intake.<\/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=3_Day_10_Pound_Diet\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-32580 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/5-10-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"3 day 10 pound diet\" width=\"770\" height=\"433\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/5-10.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/5-10-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/5-10.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/5-10-1636x920.jpg 1636w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/5-10.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 770px) 100vw, 770px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Long_Should_You_Follow_The_3-Day_10-Pound_Diet_For_Effective_Weight_Loss\"><\/span><b>How Long Should You Follow The 3-Day 10-Pound Diet For Effective Weight Loss?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You might follow this meal plan for just one month or months and still not report any weight loss.

So, if you want to keep the weight at bay and maintain an ideal weight, focus on healthy eating even during these four days.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Try to consume high volume, low-calorie foods. By choosing such foods, Mayo Clinic acknowledges that you will eat more and feel fuller on very few calories (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mayoclinic.org\/healthy-lifestyle\/weight-loss\/multimedia\/low-calorie-foods\/sls-20076175\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). The best foods to consider are fruits and vegetables due to their low energy density and high volume (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mayoclinic.org\/healthy-lifestyle\/weight-loss\/multimedia\/low-calorie-foods\/sls-20076175\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1<\/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\/7-day-military-diet-plan\/\">7-Day Military Diet Plan: Understanding This Quick Fix Weight Loss Method<\/a><\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_The_Marine_3-Day_Lose_10_Pound_Diet_Safe\"><\/span><b>Is The Marine 3-Day Lose 10 Pound Diet Safe?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Just because this meal plan promotes weight loss does not mean it is safe to use.

It is pretty restrictive considering that an average woman is advised to consume 2000 calories daily and an average male 2500 calories.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is potentially dangerous if you choose to follow the nutrition plan long-term. For example, you risk having nutritional deficiencies if you are consuming an unsupervised low-calorie meal. Similarly, you could suffer from the side effects of taking a very low-calorie diet plan, such as fatigue, diarrhea, mood swings and nausea.<\/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=3_Day_10_Pound_Diet\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-32951 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/3-1-5-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"3 day 10 pound diet\" width=\"770\" height=\"433\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/3-1-5.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/3-1-5-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/3-1-5.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/3-1-5-1636x920.jpg 1636w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/3-1-5.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 770px) 100vw, 770px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"It_Promotes_Rapid_Weight_Loss\"><\/span><b>It Promotes Rapid Weight Loss<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although rapid weight loss sounds appealing, health-wise, it is not.

Substitute Foods In The 3-Day 10-Pound Diet?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes, you can, however, not for every meal. According to Medical News Today, the substitutes are limited and are excellent choices if you follow a lactose-free, vegan, vegetarian, or gluten-free diet (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.medicalnewstoday.com\/articles\/substitutes-for-military-diet\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">7<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). Some of the meals that you can substitute are as shown below (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.medicalnewstoday.com\/articles\/substitutes-for-military-diet\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">7<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">):\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Toast. You can substitute this if you are following a gluten-free diet with half a cup of oats, half a high-protein bar, half a cup of gluten-free whole-grain cereal, or one gluten-free corn tortilla.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Peanut butter. If you do not like peanut butter or have a peanut butter allergy, you can try an alternative nut butter or pumpkin, cashew, or almond butter.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Meat. Vegans and vegetarians can substitute meat with Portobello mushrooms, lentils beans, tofu, and soy-based meat substitutes.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Green beans can be substituted with vegetables of the exact calorie count, such as lettuce, kale, or spinach.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Banana. Instead of a banana, you can consume plums, grapes, two kiwis, or one cup of papaya.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cottage or Cheddar cheese. Consider ricotta, Greek, or another cheese with the same nutritional profile.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Coffee. If you cannot tolerate caffeine, consider green tea, decaffeinated coffee, or other herbal tea.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tuna. Tuna is substituted with any other lean meat or fish.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As always, do not make any dietary changes without consulting with your nutritionist. Talk to them if you need to substitute any of the foods included in your 3-day 10-pound military diet plan.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Bottom_Line\"><\/span><b>The Bottom Line<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The 3-day 10-pound diet is not a scientifically proven weight loss method. Despite this, it is believed to contribute to weight loss by restricting your daily calorie intake between 1100 and 1400 calories. Unfortunately, it may not be effective because you will likely regain weight during the four days off, especially if you eat unhealthy or high-calorie foods. In light of this, experts suggest you look for more suitable weight loss plans.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/quiz.betterme.world\/first-page-generated?flow=2228&amp;utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=3-Day_10-Pound_Diet\" target=\"_blank\"><video autoplay=\"autoplay\" loop=\"loop\" muted=\"muted\" playsinline=\"playsinline\" width=\"777\"><source src=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/ezgif.com-gif-to-mp4-2.mp4\" type=\"video\/mp4\" \/><\/video><\/a><\/h3>\n<p><iframe title=\"Create Happines now\" width=\"770\" height=\"433\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/xLxjdQ4DYdg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"DISCLAIMER\"><\/span><b>DISCLAIMER:<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This article is intended for general informational purposes only and does not address individual circumstances.
