Cabbage Soup DIET

Has anyone tried this diet before if so so how did it go?

I did this diet a long time ago.  I lost a few pounds on it and when I stopped I gained it all back.

How did it work though! I am currently on the pre-op Opti fast diet but i want to try something else as well!

I was in the bathroom all the time.  Because I was consuming so few calories, I felt tired.  I got sick, sick, sick of eating that nasty soup.  

Knowing more about nutrition now than I did then, I realize that why it doesn't work long term is because there is no protein in the diet.  All of the weight I lost was fluid and muscle tissue.  This actually set me up to fail.

Don't do it.

Talk to your nutritionist about maybe adding some of the Optifast soups or bars.

Okay will do! Thanks I was going to try it along with my Opti-Fast shakes and make that my meal for the day and add meat to it!

I think  you misunderstood me.  I didn't mean add some meat and it's OK.   I meant don't do it.   It's a fad diet.  

Talk to your nutritionist so that you can plan a meal that is nutritionally balanced. 

It's not just about losing the weight.  You also want to be healthy.
