Cabbage Soup Diet

cabbage-soup01

Today is officially the first day of my diet/cleanse.  I’ve decided to do the cabbage soup diet.  It is more of a cleanse than anything else because you lose a lot of water weight while on it.

7 days.
Dedication and confidence.

This is the regiment I will be loosely following: The Cabbage Soup Diet by Catherine

I made the following changes to her guide:

  • I’m not eating veggies on the “veggie days” just eating the same amount of the soup as I would any other day + lots of fruits (mostly apples and orange).
  • Catherine lays out many substitutions and because I’m allergic to banana’s I will be substituting these with papaya instead.
  • On “meat days” I will have a salad served with steamed chicken breast and homemade salad dressing (little to no oil).
  • I LOVE LOVE LOVE spicy food and because it’s a natural way to get rid of toxins I have spiced up my soup with ground cayenne peppers.  (I’m also able to add more if I feel to, like at dinner time).
  • I work out at a gym but I will be cutting down my intensity and cardio time becuase of the lack of protein and carbs in my diet

Starting weight: 141.2 lbs
My goal: 7 lbs
(I am hoping for 10 lbs but 7 is my minimum.  You really never know with this diet because each time your body will have a different amount of crap to get rid of).

I’ve done this diet before and had great result sometimes, sometimes not as much as I’de like.
