Everyone’s heard of the soup diet, the grapefruit diet, the high carb diet, the low carb diet the list goes on and on. Another that you’ve undoubtedly heard of in the past - the cabbage soup diet.

While some users have claimed quick weight loss results using the cabbage soup weight loss recipe it is NOT a long term solution to your weight problem - far from it in fact!

The Cabbage Soup Diet

The cabbage soup weight loss recipe is part of a low-calorie diet that you will eat for 7 days.

Some people have tried this method and they claim that you can lose up to 10 pounds of weight in a week.

However it does not encourage a change in your eating habits making it more likely than not that you will put the pounds you lose back on as soon as you finish the 1 week cycle.

Benefits

The cabbage soup weight loss diet is a quick fix option, generally used by people with an upcoming event such as a wedding or other celebration.

The majority of the weight loss you will experience is just water weight - but people do report losing weight during the week program.

It is a cheap and relatively simple option HOWEVER I must stress that it is only a SHORT term solution to your weight loss.

The maximum length of time you can be on the diet is 7 day, after that you’re eating habits will most likely return to normal and the weight will creep back on.

AND even more so after eating just CABBAGE for a week you’ll probably be inclined to binge - I know I’d be tempted!

What the experts are saying

According to nutritional and dietary experts, you can lose your water weight with the cabbage soup weight loss recipe but not fat.

Furthermore, even though cabbage is healthy, it still lacks some important vitamins and minerals your body needs to function so it is important that you also take in other nutritious foods like fruits, other vegetables and healthy meats.

An example of the Cabbage Soup Weight Loss Diet

Day 1: Eat your cabbage soup with all the fruit you want, except for bananas. You may only drink cranberry juice, unsweetened teas, or water.

Day 2: Eat other vegetables with your cabbage soup that are either raw or cooked. You can eat as much as you want but pile up on green, leafy ones and stay away from beans, corn, and peas.

Day 3: Combine all the food you are going to eat on days 1 and two.

Day 4: Include skimmed milk and 8 bananas while eating your cabbage soup. Drink as much milk as you can.

Day 5: Start including up to 6 fresh tomatoes and 10 to 20 ounces of beef to eat with your cabbage soup.

Furthermore, drink at least 6 to 8 glasses of water to wash out the uric acid from your body. You can eat your soup at least once on day 5. If you don’t like beef, substitute baked or broiled skinless chicken or broiled fish.

Day 6: Eat as much beef and vegetables as you want with your soup.

Day 7: Start eating brown rice with your vegetables and cabbage soup while drinking unsweetened fruit juices.

Should you try it?

Well of course it is up to you BUT realistically this will only help you in the short term.

The 1 week long diet will rid you of water weight but thats about it.

AND the diet does nothing to change your approach to your weight, your mindset and your eating habits!

These factors are what really will solve your weight problem and help you keep the weight off for good!
