Take it with a grain of salt. It just seemed interesting to me when I ran across it. I might give it a shot to see how well it works. It seems to me that it would be a lot of Water weight lost, but they say you can repeat it the next week and get the same results, and can continue to do the diet over and over till you are satisfied. We'll see.

Has anyone cooked this soup in a crockpot? I work for a small company and we have a large crockpot and I thought it might be easier to cook it here at work than at home at night (when I'd rather be doing other things).

I guess I could just cook it on high until the veggies are soft?

Marimaru it doesn't take that long to cook really. Prep time is the most tedious. You could prep your veggies today and cook it tomorrow.

This thread got me excited so I made my own throw together pot of soup. Ground beef for Protein and mixed veggies. yummy

OK yall im on my fourth week of making this yummy soup!!!!:hungry:

If you will let it cook all day you wont have to worry about celery issues..mine just melt in my mouth almost lol and by end of the week OMG its awesome! the juice is sucked into everything!

Yea teresita i love adding meat to mine im using stew meat this week..yummy and i have been adding new potatoes or just chunks of potaoes.

I dont do the whole plan i just liek to have the soup on hand for when im hungry and im loosing still...slow but loosing lol NOT GAINING!!!!

hi

I'm now wondering about the weightloss too...I am up 2 pounds after day one and not feeling to good about this....ok granted,I was low carbing before day one and I always am up some when I go off the low carbing but this scares me as I stayed in this place for a month longer to lose another 4 kgs not to gain....I could have gone on holiday did I think I wouldnt reach my goal...yeah,crazy to plan a holiday around weight but this is my reality...I can gain so much so fast that I have to plan around it...wanted to be well under 100kg's so that I wouldnt go over it again and voila,today 101.6...

I will carry on with day 2 and see....I dont cheat so if this thing will work I will see results....off to exercise now..

Good luck everyone...

This soup is great, very nutritious and very poor in calories. Besides, I think it's quite easy to «adapt» or adjust slightly if for instance someone doesn't like one of the ingredients. For me it is fine if I add some cabbage or other green leaves veggies (spinach or broccoli are quite good and they add some Fiber too).

For me potatoes are a NO-NO, but I just replace them by something else (zuchinni or squash).

DesertMom - I guess your body entered on «starvation mode» and it's holding on to those fat cells because of your too low calories diet. Try increasing drastically your daily intake of Water or add some more «good» calories (no sugar, no carbs) just to shake things up a bit. This usually works well for me.

Day three and even with a hoooorrrible indescrestion last night, (two little ceaser's breadsticks) I am down 4lbs... WOOOHOOO!

Side note: I hope to GOD I cant eat those things after I am banded. Well, with everything I have been told, I am not even gonna try!

This really isn't very healthy to do for more than a meal or two. It lacks protein - if lean meat was added it would be OK. Protein is what satisfies hunger. Years ago I did the cabbage soup diet, whatever I lost came right back.

hi

I just want to lose some....

Well, I'm on day one. The soup is good, but I think I'll season it differently next time. I think I'll also buy pre-sliced carrots, LOL.

I also think I am going to blend up the tomatoes so they aren't in the big chunks the stewed tomatoes come in. I did white boiling onions instead of green onions. Where do you guys get those other onions you talk about? The Vidalia Onions? I didn't see them at my grocery store.

I haven't even been all that hungry today. I had some orange juice for breakfast and am just now having my first bowl of soup for lunch.

I'm so excited to break out of my plateau. I think the benefit of diets like this will really work for us, because I know for many of us, if we have restriction, when we aren't losing, we're not gaining either, so when we get off the 'diet' we have a good chance to keep any weight off that we lost.

Hi gang,

I've tried this diet several times and it does work for awhile but like all plans it gets old fast. But it does give you a kick start. Good luck!

I'm still waiting for approval for my surgery. Cross your fingers it soon.

Vidalias are common around here...of course I live in Augusta Georgia....so Vidalia Georgia isn't so far away.

They are a much tastier onion than any of the others I have tried....IMHO anyways.

The soup isn't a miracle...you can't live on it forever.....you won't keep the weight off if this is the only method you use to lose......we've established this a hundred times in this thread already.......I don't know why some posters have to come on and preach despite the fact that in numerous previous posts many of us have already made it crystal clear that it is only a part of our overall plan.

Human nature I guess.

PS....I second the smaller hunks of tomato...the stewed tomatoes are too big for my liking.
