The Cabbage Soup Diet: Members' Views

Thinking about the cabbage soup diet just for a week and then
back to my normal diet, for a big loss and big motivation lift.
What do u think? anyone tried it before?

Did the Cabbage diet a couple of years ago, lost a bit but
put it on straight away. I recommend healthy eating and keeping
a proper calorie count through WLR. A good eating plan can solve
it all - so please no drastic ideas.

I've done it in the past. It's a fairly unpleasant week -
although the idea of adding different spices to the soup is a
good one. But the main thing is, it's not real weight loss. I
wouldn't bother, unless you need to lose weight urgently for an
operation or something.

It made me sick - bleeeeuuuurrrrggggghhhhhh, every time I
smell cabbage soup now it makes me want to vomit!!!!

You are 5'5" and 10 stone 2 lbs - that sounds great to me.
Don't try anything as drastic as the cabbage soup diet. You may
lose friends as well as weight.

I tried the cabbage soup diet once and got so sick of the
cabbage after 4 days that I didn't even go near it for quite a
while. It's very boring and I always found it wasn't very
filling. But you better try for yourself, you might enjoy it and
who knows, maybe it gives you the motivation you need!

Errrmmm well, the cabbage soup diet is a sound idea in
theory, as long as you can spend most of your time out of
doors!! Not recommended for enclosed spaces!! Good luck.
KERRILOU
I've done the cabbage soup diet a couple of times and didn't
have any of the adverse effects that Kerrilou alludes to! I lost
about 7lbs each time and had an amazing sense of wellbeing -
can't explain it better than just feeling incredibly happy. It's
quite tough though and by the end of the third day the smell of
the cabbage soup made me feel quite nauseous. If you're going to
do it I'd advise you to make the soup fresh every other day and
try putting different herbs/spices in to make it taste
different; maybe some curry powder or paprika. Good luck if you
do try it.
