The Military Diet

I hate diets, but I am impressed with this one for several reasons.  It is short, only three days, it has some interesting foods on there (cheese, hot dogs, ice cream), it is very strict (you have to follow it exactly), it actually has a fairly wide variety of foods on it, no one knows where it came from, it has several variations, and a lot of people have commented on it.

There are two "official" websites, which are not connected, but which have the SAME EXACT menu.

I may be temporarily turning this blog into a military diet blog.  I see some profound or at least interesting philosophy behind it.

=====================================================
Article 1:  The Military Diet Cult

Going on a fad diet is similar in some ways to joining a religion.  You are significantly changing your behavior based on adopting a belief system.  Most diets have a founder, usually Doctor someone, and try to show the "scientific" basis for the diet.  You can buy the bible of the diet, "Dr. Atkins' New Diet Revolution", "The South Beach Diet" by Dr. Agatston, "The Zone Diet" by Dr Barry Sears", etc.

No one knows where the Military Diet came from or who named it that.  It certainly has nothing to do with the military.  It is probably because it is so strict, like joining boot camp.  I personally think it came from Moses, who got it from God on Mt. Sinai.

So I think it is like a cult.  But it is only for three days!  (Unlike the Atkins diet religion, which is for life).  And the adherents think they have discovered a new truth which they are propagating.

So join the Military Diet cult today!  You have nothing to lose but your weight (up to 10 lbs).

Update:  Here is yet another "official" website, with the same exact menu plan.
