| sparklesky's Full Review: Cabbage Soup Diet |
I'm sure by now everyone has heard about the Cabbage Soup diet. I am also just as sure anyone dealing with a weight problem has been tempted to try it. If you are in good health with no existing medical conditions my advice would be to try it-if you are really curious.
The Recipe and Plan
2 green peppers
1 or 2 can of tomatoes-diced
6 green onions
1 bunch of celery
1/2 head of cabbage
1 package of onion soup mix
1 or 2 cubes of boullion
Season to taste
Optional 1 48 oz can of V-8 juice
Eat all the soup you want whenever you desire.
Day 1- Every fruit you want except bananas
Day 2- All the veggies you want plus baked potato with butter for dinner
Day 3- Combine day 1 and two but no potato
Day 4- Up to six bananas,all the skim milk you want
Day 5- 10-20 ounces of beef,a can of tomatoes,6-8 glasses of water
Day 6- All the beef and vegetables you want
Day 7- Brown rice,unsweetened fruit juices, and vegetables
Remember,each day you are allowed unlimited soup.
No breads,alcohol, or carbonated beverages. All the water you can drink.
I followed this diet and dropped 9 pounds in a week. At first the soup was tasty but soon grew tiresome. This isn't a diet I could stick to for a long time. I don't think the intention is to make it a lifelong eating habit. The diet doesn't provide enough nutrients and may cause vitamin and mineral deficiencies after a while if you stay on it for a prolonged time. Some side effects can be gas, light-headedness,and nausea.
So to jumpstart your weight loss by losing a high amount of water weight-this is perfect for you. Stay on the program 1 week and resume life by eating a healthy meal plan and drinking lots of water.
