Cabbage Soup Diet for Weight Loss

By Cindy • Category: Diet Plans

The Cabbage Soup Diet is a fad diet plan; it is not very healthy and shows weight loss results due to the body water loss. Think, what good can a diet do which doesn’t have a balanced meal but on the contrary this diet allows you to eat 8 bananas and 2 glasses of skim milk, and as much of the soup as one can have.

Food intake of just Banana and skim milk totally give around 1000 calories only in a day as the soup has very negligible amount of energy, this diet plan reduces your calorie intake substantially and which is not good. However a well planned weight loss program will reduces your calories from your normal diet day by day.

Following this diet plan for fast weight loss is okay but it may get stressful for you and this diet is not much useful as the moment you go back on your normal diet you gain back all what you had lost.

You can not use this diet plan for more than couple of weeks as it is very unhealthy, boring and it is advised not to be used for prolonged period. Although, if you have to lose weight quickly just to fit in one of your old dresses or if you are trying to look slimmer in a function which is forthcoming in a week you can try this one.

The Cabbage Soup Diet Plan is as follows:

First Day: You can eat all types of fruits barring bananas. You can take tea, black coffee, cranberry juice all without sugar and take good amount of water. You can take as much cabbage soup as you like.

Second Day: You can eat all types of fresh, raw and cooked vegetables. Do not eat dried beans, peas or corn as they have weight gaining property. At dinner time you can eat a large baked potato with butter. Again take as much soup as you like.

Third Day: You have to combine day one and day two constituents by eating fruit and vegetables (no bananas, dried beans, peas, corn or baked potato). Eat as much cabbage soup as you like.

Fourth Day: Eat up to eight bananas and drink approx two glasses of skimmed milk. You can take as much cabbage soup as you like.

Fifth Day: You can eat baked or grilled meat and and fresh tomatoes. Drink at least 8 to 10 glasses of water and have Cabbage Soup once in whole day. If you can not eat meat, you can eat fish or chicken in its place.

Sixth Day: You must eat up to 3 steaks and all types of vegetables you want barring potatoes. Eat the soup at least once.
