7-DAY DIET WEIGHT LOSS SOUP

1/2 head of cabbage, chopped
1 cup celery, diced
1 cup white or yellow onion, diced
1 cup carrots, diced
1 green bell pepper, diced
2-3 cloves garlic, minced
4 cups chicken broth
14 oz can diced tomatoes
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon basil
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes and cayenne pepper
Salt and Pepper to taste

Heat 2-3 tablespoons of olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add celery, onions, bell peppers, and carrots.
Saute until slightly tender.
Stir in garlic.
Pour in chicken broth.
Stir in tomatoes and cabbage.
Bring to a boil and then reduce heat.
Cook until cabbage is tender.
Stir in oregano, basil, red pepper flakes, black pepper and salt (if
using)
Taste broth and adjust seasoning if needed.

Remember: This diet should only be followed for 7 days at a time, with
at least two weeks in between.

Day One:
Fruit: Eat all of the fruit you want (except bananas). Eat only your
soup and the fruit for the first day. For drinks- unsweetened teas,
cranberry juice and water.

Day Two:
Vegetables: Eat until you are stuffed will all fresh, raw or cooked
vegetables of your choice. Try to eat leafy green vegetables and stay
away from dry beans, peas and corn. Eat all the vegetables you want
along with your soup. At dinner, reward yourself with a big baked
potato with butter. Do not eat fruit today.

Day Three:
Mix Days One and Two: Eat all the soup, fruits and vegetables you want.
No Baked Potato.

Day Four:
Bananas and Skim Milk: Eat as many as eight bananas and drink as many
glasses of skim milk as you would like on this day, along with your
soup. This day is supposed to lessen your desire for sweets.

Day Five:
Beef And Tomatoes: Ten to twenty ounces of beef and up to six fresh
tomatoes. Drink at least 6 to 8 glasses of water this day to wash the
uric acid from your body. Eat your soup at least once this day. You may
eat broiled or baked chicken instead of beef (but absolutely no skin-on
chicken). If you prefer, you can substitute broiled fish for beef on
one of the beef days (but not both).

Day Six:
Beef and Vegetables: Eat to your heart's content of beef and vegetables
this day. You can even have 2 or 3 steaks if you like, with leafy green
vegetables. No Baked Potato. Eat your soup at least once.

Day Seven:
Brown rice, unsweetened fruit juices and vegetables: Again stuff,
stuff, stuff yourself. Be sure to eat your soup at least once this day.

Day 8 and Beyond:
The Cabbage Soup Diet is not suitable for long-term weight loss. The
Diet is a low-fat, high-fiber diet that will help you get into shape
fast before you embark on a more moderate long-term eating plan. Many
struggle in long-term plans due to lack of willpower.
