Results of the Military Diet

Hey everyone,
Ok the diet. 
How much did I lose? Lets not beat around the bush, I know that is what you really want to know.

I lost

*drum roll*

-2lbs


2lbs. With 3 days on this diet and four days (and I had A LOT of indulgences!) I lost 2lbs. That was with exercise (40mins + everyday). So not 10lbs as promised but...still better than the Cabbage Soup Diet. 

However, my boyfriend did no exercise, occasionally had a tuna melt and jam sandwiches, and went out to the pub for a meal on one of the nights, and he lost 7lbs. (ITS NOT FAIR) and he is considered nearly underweight by the BMI calender. This proves to me it is not about weight but it is about which diet works for you. So just because one doesn't work for you, it doesn't mean all will not. And it definitely doesn't mean 'give up' (despite the fact you're gorgeous so you don't need to do anything!!!!! Just love yourself!) 
It was a good diet. It made you feel healthy and energised. However, I did get very hungry on the third day and bored of the same kind of food!

However, it made me feel good and boosted my confidence. 

CONS 
GAS - once again, as all fad diets seem to show me...you get a lot of gas. 
TUMMY ACHE - one cheat, a diet coke, caused me agony. Absolutely agony. SO DO NOT CHEAT. This could be a pro or con? 
10lbs - I did not lose what was promised. 

But it does energise you. It makes you organised and strict. And it isn't too expensive. I would recommend people doing this diet. It is 3 days out of 7 and means you can indulge (well once in a while) !!

I am scared of the egg/marine diet!! So scared!!! That begins tomorrow. TODAY WAS MY LAST FUN DAY!! Wish me luck! I will be updating! x
