Cabbage soup diet?!


Question:

Cabbage soup diet?

They say you lose weight from this, cause it's for a week and you can lose 10-17lbs.. But is it just water weight?
Will this cause dehydration and will the weight come back, after your done..eating light foods..? Also would working out help it along...cause you ARE eating.

I ask like I've never tried this before, but i have when I was fatter, and it worked...I've lost 80lbs from eating right and excercise, but now that I'm thinner, I want to know if it would hurt me any.

I'm planning on taking a multivitamin and lots of water while doing this. Thank you for your answers.


Answers:

The Cabbage Soup Diet is one of the most famous fad diets, and is a very low calorie low fat diet based on cabbage soup, plus a few other foods, including vegetables, fruits and restricted carbs and protein. Typically the advice is to follow it for 7 days, then eat normally for 14 days, then return to the Cabbage Soup Diet for another 7 days and so on.

Despite claims to the contrary, cabbage does not possess any 'fat-burning' properties. The reason the Cabbage Soup Diet causes weight loss is because it provides no more than about 800-900 calories a day.
