Is this okay to do on the military diet?

[Anonymous]

I am doing the military diet. Yes I know it's not the best thing but I thought heck why not try it. Anyway it has that I eat some meat for dinner. I have some hotdogs at home already so if I hear them up on the stove ( don't have a grill here) would that be a good meat to have? And is it okay to heat it up in a pan on the stove?

This is from a two second google search:

2 hotdogs = roughly 100 grams

300 calories, 26 grams of fat ==> 40% of the total amount of fat you should be consuming everyday. 10 grams of protein, not a whole lot compared to many other foods. BASED ON A 2000 CALORIE DIET.

In comparison 100g of lean beef has 26ish grams of protein. Calories depend on how much fat it has. If you trim off the fat by hand the calorie count is really low.

What you are doing with your diet is up to you. Hopefully this info helps you decide on what to eat.

As others have mentioned it's got shit ton of preservatives and crap. Something to consider...

hotdogs are filled with nitrates and bad shit for your body.

there's an actual statistic that says eating X amount of hotdogs every month will take Y amount of years off your life span/expectancy.

go for healthy lean meats.

Military diet is a load of crap, just eat a whole foods plant based diet and make some serious lifestyle changes. All these quick fix, fad diets do is make you lose water weight (which always comes back) and it damages your endocrine system which will make future weight loss even more difficult. Health is only achieved with life-long changes, not with a week or two of starving yourself and eating tiny portions of absolutely shitty food. A hot dog is not a health food.

I don't know anything about the military diet but I do know that very little content in a hot dog is actually meat...

Hotdogs... ? You do realize they are literally just pure processed crap. haha.

The hole point of a diet is to eat clean healthy foods, As far as im concerned, A hot dog is not a meat, Its more of just a mushy tube shaped object of various bits of grinded bone, cartillage, And sure, Maybe a slither of meat in their too...

Just buy a chicken fillet or a steak or something. Haha.

I just looked it up and it says to eat hot dogs.. however hot dogs are full of crap to be honest try something leaner like chicken. None the less it's fine to heat them on the stove just move them around.

Why does it matter? The fact that you're even doing that diet says you don't care one little bit for your health. So sure, go on, eat the hot dogs. And then go get help. Stop starving yourself.

Aside from being processed and loaded with nitritres, they also have a shockingly high fat/protein ratio.

I'm not saying don't eat a few today.

I'm saying don't make that your standard go-to meat.

I don't know anything about military diet, if you want to have meat then you can.

[9mfeo]

Just... Don't eat hotdogs ever. They're not even real meat.

[OrdinaryGentleman]

lol yes its completely fine. I would always boil my hot dogs, quick and easy. You can of course pan fry it, but remember when dieting don't over think things as you are doing now.

I don't recommend anyone to be on a diet but highly encourage people to change their diet and eating habits

I'm assuming the military diet will only work if you're doing military intense work outs. You're prob gonna gain weight no offense

It's not an actual military diet. It's the name of a starvation diet that constitutes disordered eating. The only advice you can give to someone on it is to seek help.
