Water is the best thing you can drink on the Military Diet. So drink as much as you can! Artificial sweeteners aren’t good for you or your blood sugar, so try to avoid them.

For coffee addicts: We really love (need) coffee too, so we understand why everyone has questions about coffee on the Military Diet! Caffeine withdrawal is no fun, especially when you’re already on a low calorie diet. So here’s some good news… Black coffee has less than 5 calories per cup, so if you need to sneak in a cup here and there, just cut out the equivalent calories elsewhere. Do not add cream and sugar. You can add Stevia if you like. You’re welcome…

Tips
- If you begin to feel sick, dizzy, or too weak, discontinue the diet IMMEDIATELY
- Always give your body a break from exercise, your body needs at least 1 day a week to recuperate after intense dieting or working out.
- Be sure to stretch before and after working out, keeping limber muscles will help to avoid muscle strains and spasms.
- 20 minutes a day of walking is considered great exercise for those who are unable to do high-intensity workouts.
- Work up to a goal, if you're new working out, start at low-intensity, when you can do that without getting too winded or needing a break, it's time to take it to the next level. You'll be up to high-intensity very fast.
