Cabbage Soup Diet!

[andrewjdavid2005]

This is something i am trying and its really good, you have 1-4 bowls of cabbage soup aday and it is mixed with loads of vegetables and also you eat 5 portions of fruit each day, also lots of water, its only for one week and makes you lose around 1 stone plus is very healthy and may relieve anxiety and make you feel better and more energy if anyone is interested i will post what you have to eat over 7 days!

where's the protein and essential fats in it ?

[andrewjdavid2005]

Well i take omega 3 everyday so that provides my essential fatty acids and im sure this diet has protein in it as well, definately worth trying i know someone who is a close friend of mine who said its excellent!

[andrewjdavid2005]

This is what you have to eat:-

Day 1 - Cabbage soup plus as much fruit as you like, excluding bananas
Day 2 - Cabbage soup plus vegetables including 1 jacket potato with a little butter
Day 3 - Cabbage soup plus fruit and vegetables excluding potatoes and bananas
Day 4 - Cabbage soup plus up to eight bananas and as much skimmed milk as you like
Day 5 - Cabbage soup plus up to 20 ounces of beef and up to six tomatoes
Day 6 - Cabbage soup plus as much beef and vegetables (excluding potatoes) as you like
Day 7 - Cabbage soup plus brown rice, vegetables (excluding potatoes) and unsweetened fruit juice

Recipes for the cabbage soup vary, but all are based on cabbage, onions, tinned tomatoes, green peppers, celery, carrots, mushrooms and onion soup mix.

Hi Andrew
I tried this diet and it did help me but you have to keep up with it or else all the weight you loose will all come back. That is what happened to me. Problem with me is that I start off very excited about a new diet or exercise and then after 3 or 4 days that's it, I am bored and stop. I am sure it will help you but like I said, you have to keep it up and watch what you eat after you are off of the diet. But it is said that diet and exercise are the best remedy for depression/anxiety/panic. My problem is also that I hate to exercise with a passion. Let me know how you do.

Hi Andrew

I tried this diet a few years ago before suffering from anxiety and i was totally focussed on it and it did work really well. Might give it another go as it seemed to suit me and i need to lose some weight.

Love Sal xx
