Ok, enough self congratulating! But I am pleased to proclaim that I actually decided to do this diet and amazingly stuck with it for the entire 3 days! I followed it exactly except that I didn't realize that the tea wasn't supposed to be sweet tea on Day 1. You are supposed to be able to lose up to 8 pounds. I was thrilled to drop 4! {Normally I GAIN weight when I try to diet!} My sis Mel did some research on this diet and found info insisting that it is a fad diet and not used by the military at all. Who knows?! All I know is that I was very hungry for 3 days and that I did lose 4 pounds! I'll post the link to the website where I got this info from so in case you want to put yourself through this, you will have all the data you need. http://blessedmommy.hubpages.com/hub/Lose-Up-To-10-Pounds-In-3-Days-On-The-3-Day-Diet I am considering going through the agony again like they recommend after 4 days of normal eating have passed in order to reverse the porking up I've done lately. We shall see. It was tremendously satisfying to EAT today while Roxie, Anne, and I were in Pensacola celebrating our birthdays. We had a terrific time! {I shall blog about it tomorrow as Danl is waiting on the 'puter.}
