The cabbage soup diet is often called the ultimate fad diet. It is specifically designed for rapid, short term weight loss and is the first diet plan of its kind to achieve popularity. Although there are fans of this diet, many people who begin the diet find it difficult to finish. Also, like most other short term weight loss solutions, the cabbage diet causes water weight loss rather than permanent fat loss.
According to the cabbage soup diet publications, this plan should only be attempted for one week. If you would like to lose more weight with this method, you must wait at least two weeks before beginning the cabbage soup diet again. Critics say this is due to the stress the cabbage soup diet places on the body. The cabbage soup diet relies on the consumption of unlimited amounts of cabbage soup paired with other specific foods, but does not create a balanced diet.
The cabbage soup diet is attractive to many dieters because it promises that you will never be hungry. Although all other types of food are restricted, you can eat as much cabbage soup as you would like. Some recipes for cabbage soup call for large amounts of salt, which should be of concern for people on low sodium diets. Almost all cabbage soup recipes are incredibly bland and people that follow the diet for more than a few days often avoid it.
On the cabbage soup diet, it is claimed you can lose up to ten pounds in seven days. The weight is often mostly water weight, and therefore temporary. Also, by following a low calorie diet, muscle loss can also take place during the cabbage soup diet. The cabbage soup diet allows for almost no protein during the entire week of weight loss.
The actual cabbage soup diet varies depending on the actual plan. Many diets begin with allowing you to eat as much cabbage soup as you would like and only fruit for the first day. The next day may have you eat cabbage soup and only vegetables. Some cabbage soup diet plans include meat for one of the days, while other cabbage soup diet plans are completely vegetarian.
