The Hospital 3 Day Diet, which is also known as the Birmingham Hospital Diet, has become beloved due to claims that the diet was created as a means of enabling patients intended for surgery to lose up to 10 lbs in weight over a period of three days. Other sources attribute the origin of this diet plan to the University of Alabama.
It should be noted that these institutions do not make that claim and do not accept any responsibility towards those who effect the diet.
Notwithstanding the uncertainty of its origins, there is small doubt that this straightforward diet plan has become full, and that many population have used it, often advent over the weight loss strategy under one of its many names. Apart from the Hospital 3 Day Diet, it is also known as Alabama 3 Day Diet, 3 day Tuna Diet, Tuna Fish Diet, 3 Day Cardiac Diet, and others.
The article of these weight loss diet plans is very similar and will here be treated as essentially the same.
A key element of the Hospital 3 Day Diet is that it contains a low daily calorie level of about 1,000 fat with specified ingredients to supply the protein, carbohydrates, fat (very little) and other nutrients that we need to survive. For a full article of the menu plan, do a quick search for my article "3 Day Tuna Fish Diet - Menu and Diet Plan".
In brief, the plan outlines the foods to be included for breakfast, lunch and supper over a three day period.
There are many reports of weight reduction from those who have followed the diet. The number of claimed weight lost while that time varies, as might be anticipated with so many differing metabolisms and food requirements being involved. However, a minimum weight reduction of at least 2.5 lbs does seem attainable and likely.
Much of the weight loss from a diet of such a short period probably comes from water loss. As well, with a calorie count of about 1,000 this would be well below general requirements for most adults, so power expended would also account for some of the loss.
However, whilst not a 'starvation diet', the Birmingham Hospital Diet is likely to create user problems if continued beyond the recommended 3 days. For instance, it is general for our bodies to make adjustments when a food shortage is detected. This is a survival mechanism which protects us when small food is available, as in times of famine. The body slows metabolism and conserves fat shop to enable us to survive longer with less food. This unmistakably makes it harder to lose weight, we have less power and tire more easily. Not a satisfactory long term condition!
Although there may be some short-term loss advantage, the feelings of hunger experienced by the end of the diet encourage extra food intake after the diet has been completed. A great alternative is a program that does not yield a craving for food, does not cause the body to slow its activities, and takes into account nutritional requirements so that changes in eating habits would allow fat loss to happen over a longer period and be lasting.
Rather than following a simple, low calorie diet plan, losing weight over an extended period allows other tactics to be employed in the plan, such as 'calorie shifting', placing greater emphasis on fat loss and adequate nutrition. This is more likely in the long run to supply health benefits and sustainable weight loss.
