New Cabbage Soup Diet
Whether referred to as the Cabbage Soup Diet, Sacred Heart Diet, Military Cabbage Soup, or the T J Miracle Soup Diet, the Cabbage Soup Diet has been gaining much recognition for the past thirty years. Known for its radical weight loss (expect to lose at least ten pounds in one week), the diet is used by those who are seeking a way to lose weight quickly. The diet is almost the same but you can add a few different things to change it up.
It should be stated that it is recommended one week at a time,
due to the fact that it is hard on the digestive system- part of
the diet's success in quick weight loss. The diet causes the body
to burn fat more thoroughly, allowing users to lose ten pounds in
one week. It is also recommended that you wait at least two weeks
before going on the diet again. Important to note, is the fact that
you should consult with your doctor or health care practitioner
before going on any type of diet.
The cabbage soup diet is often prepared in a number of different
ways with the main ingredient being cabbage. Some people may feel
that the soup is a bit bland, and they may choose to add additional
spices while some add different vegetables. Once the soup is prepared
however, you are free to eat as much of it as you like during your
weeklong diet.
Due to the fact that the basic form of the diet not only limits
carbohydrates and calories, but also protein, many people recommend
that you take a protein shake along with the diet. It is also suggested
that you take a multivitamin supplement daily while on the diet
as well. This ensures that you still receive adequate vitamin and
mineral daily intake while continuing to lose weight.
Since you are allowed to eat unlimited amounts of the soup, its
a great way for dieters to begin their new health plan. Again, the
diet should only be followed for seven days. After losing the first
ten pounds, you will have the motivation to continue with your weight
loss plan.
The diet is actually divided into a seven-day plan that includes
eating a variety of different foods each day. The caloric intake
is greatly reduced on the diet, which contributes to the diet's
success. Some of the pros related to the diet include the fact that
many people begin to find the idea of eating the same soup every
day a bit monotonous. However, the use of various spices can help
to bring flavor to the soup. Another drawback is that the high quantity
of cabbage is known to promote gas. You should also look at the
time frame of when you are going to start. Make sure that you choose
a time frame to complete it when you won't be expected to be at
parties, or have dinner dates. Obviously, holidays are not a good
time to begin either. By using caution and exercising wise judgment,
its an excellent way to begin your new diet plan.
