The Military Diet sounds simple, but it has everything you need to get skinny quickly. You’ll see below, most of the meals require very little if any cooking.
Military diet-approved foods aren’t what you’d typically think of as “diet” fare, including hot dogs, toast, ice cream, and canned tuna, says registered dietitian Brooke Alpert. See the full breakdown of the diet meals below. These same meals are prescribed for everyone observing the diet and are carefully planned out so you don’t overindulge or stray off the diet (since you can only eat the foods recommended below), says Alpert.
DAY 1
Breakfast: 1/2 Grapefruit, one slice of bread/toast with two tablespoons of peanut or almond butter, and one cup of coffee
Lunch: one slice of bread or toast, 1/2 can of tuna, and one cup of coffee
Dinner: 3 oz. of any meat (the size of a deck of cards), one cup of green beans, one small apple, 1/2 banana, and one cup of ice cream
