shredded cabbage soup

April 22nd, 2009

You might not believe you can lose weight while on a diet plan which includes shredded cabbage soup but it can happen. It is crucial to not eat shredded cabbage soup or other high calorie soups every day but in moderation.

As an example, I allow myself rich food one day per week. I eat a low calorie diet for 6 days of the week, say 1500 to 1600 calories each day, and then on the 7th day, I eat whatever I like – within reason of course.

I have been eating like this for the last 2 weeks and it has helped me to lose 5 kilos. I have not accelerated my exercise routine or taken any vitamins or diet aids. I have only been aware of what I eat most days of the week and then eat whatever I want one day of the week.

I also think it is helpful if you have a little support when dieting and for that I registered with the Biggest Loser club. They have many tools to enable you to monitor your progress and reach your goals.
