The Cabbage Soup Diet is based on a fat-burning
soup that contains negative calories. The more soup you
eat the more weight you are suppose to lose.
I have seen the cabbage soup diet work well
for several people. I did not personally have any luck with
it. I ate cabbage soup all day every day and I was still hungry..
plus I actually gained weight. It's certainly not for
everyone.
Just in case you do want to give the cabbage
soup diet a try, here is the magic ingredients to this weight
loss diet. (You are suppose to be able to lose 10-15 lbs. in
7 days.)
The Cabbage Soup Diet Plan
Eat as much cabbage soup as you desire for seven
days and you can lose 10 to 15 pounds. The recipe varies slightly,
but basically includes a variety of low-calorie vegetables such
as cabbage, onions and tomatoes, flavored with bouillon, onion
soup mix and tomato juice (I liked to spice my cabbage soup
up a bit with some jalepeno peppers and spices). Each day
of the seven-day program has specific foods that must be eaten,
including potatoes, fruit juice, many vegetables, and on one
day, beef.
Day One:
Eat only fruit, all the fruit you want except banana. Drink
unsweetened tea, black coffee, cranberry juice and water. Eat
as much soup as you like.
Day Two:
All you want - fresh, raw or cooked vegetables of your choice.
Stay away from dry beans, peas and sweet corn. Reward yourself
with a big baked potato with butter for dinner. Eat as much
soup as you like, but no fruit for today.
Day Three:
Combine days one and two, eat as much fruit, vegetables and
soup as you like but no baked potato.
Day Four:
Eat as many as eight bananas and drink as many glasses of skim
milk as you would like on this day, along with your soup. This
day is supposed to lessen your desire for sweets.
Day Five:
You may have 10-20 ounces of beef (300-500g) and a large tin
or up to six fresh tomatoes. Drink at least 6 to 8 glasses of
water this day to wash the uric acid from your body. Eat your
soup at least once today. You may eat broiled or baked chicken
(skinless) instead of beef. If you prefer, you can substitute
broiled fish for the beef.
Day Six:
Eat beef and vegetables today. You can even have 2 or 3 steaks
if you like, with fresh vegetables or salad. NO BAKED POTATO.
Eat your soup at least once.
Day Seven:
Brown rice, unsweetened fruit juices and vegetables all you
want. Be sure to eat your soup at least once to day. No bread,
alcohol, or carbonated beverages - not even diet soda.
