Not enough Protein or nutrients/minerals/vitamins? Then you simply aren’t eating enough fruits and vegetables. If you eat plenty of vegetables (raw diet) you will get plenty of protein. Again, plenty of nutrients/vitamins.

Remember nuts/seeds are fruits too and HIGH in protein/minerals/nutrients.

I would suggest studying the diet of a vegan. They get plenty of vitamins/minerals/nutrients/proteing and they don’t ever eat any meat. There are some that eat all raw and they don’t have head fogginess or low concentration. All that stuff is a myth because most people do not eat right and eat the wrong kinds of foods or not enough.

You should get Dr. McDougall’s DVD to help you out in that department of nutrition.

My husband and I are on day 5 of the 7 day cabbage diet. So for we’ve each lost 10 lbs. With three more days to go I’m hoping to lose a total of 12 to 15 lbs. Today is our meat day and I’m really looking forward to a nice dinner tonight. If it wouldn’t have been for my husband being my diet buddy I think I would have cheated. After seeing the results, I’m glad I didn’t.

Try it… it works!!!

Hi Melissa,
The videos are great and a wonderful addition to the cabbage soup diet information cursing on the net. You mentionned the lack of protein – slowing down your concentration and reaction. There exists in the meanwhile an improved cabbage soup diet plan with added protein which takes this fact into account. You are allowed to drink “fat burner shakes” with protein twice a day.
Here you find the plan http://www.successful-diet-cabbage-soup.com/7-day-soup-diet.html
I’ve tried both versions and must admit that the added protein made me feel much better and gave me more energy through the day. I lost 7 pounds in a week without hunger cravings.

I tried this diet twice. First time I lost 17 pounds in 2 weeks. Kept things intersting by adding picante sauce or low sodium soy sauce to my serving of soup to put a different spin on the flavor. Worked well.

A year later, I started the diet again, but only lost about 5 pounds. Just couldn’t stomach the soup diet a second time. Do it once, change your eating habbits. Don’t let this become a go-to routine.

I feel so much better eating cabbage soup – although not for every meal – and here are some ideas that might help change your recipe a little. I use brocoli slaw as well as bagged cole slaw – makes it easier than chopping cabbage. I also use Spicy V8 as a base. I have used cilantro as well as a jalepeno. I find eating this soup once a day when I don’t fit in all my vegies. Healthy eating!

I’m about to write a new diet book. Its title will be “Dieting is a numbers game.”
I lost 52 lbs in the last year by doing simple math: 3500 calories per lb. and it doesn’t matter whether one works off the lbs by the numbers or abstains from all high-calory foods, regardless of food-type.
My diet consists of high fiber cereal for breakfast (300 c), a large vegetable salad for lunch with either tuna or chicken on top and and apple (400 c) then, soup and stone-ground crackers for dinner (500 c). Since my calorie needs are about 2500/day it is easy to do the math and see why I lost weight and feel good and satisfied most of the time. When I need a snack, a boiled egg suffices mid-morning and raw veggies in the afternoon.
Anyone can do it. you need only a goal of where you want to be, a vision of your appearance at that weight and perseverance.

Congratulations on discovering that there are ways to eat more fruits and veggies and on your willpower!!!
I have a burning question, and can’t find the answer anywhere: On the ‘All Fruit’ day, were you ’sensible’? I mean, I can eat 2 pounds of grapes and 3 pounds of strawberries on that day?
It would be wonderful if you told us how you did the cabbage soup diet, as the various forums postings refer to ‘4 grapes’ and ‘not going over 1000 calories a day’, which may be misleading to people!
