Hey Fat Whores. Any luck with this miracle cure?

Your farts will propel you into space.

I haven't eaten that exact cabbage soup but I've cooked other versions earlier when losing weight. Cabbage soups can be awesome if you pair them with the right products. I usually did it with cooked soy meat I fried in olive oil and then seasoned with soy sauce. You get nice saltiness that makes the cabbage soup taste wonderful. And my stomach thanked me since there were never any stomach aches I tend to get with my normal not too healthy diet. I don't remember being super gassy but since I usually schedule my weight loss diet on a holiday or when staying long time in my apartment alone it could be that I just didn't pay that much attention to it.

BTW, if you make tons of cabbage soup and then prepare portions by packing it in small containers (and top them with the soy sauce soy meat) it's so much easier to keep your eating regular and easy. When losing weight it's important to eat small portions every two to three hours so your metabolism won't slow down and your blood sugar levels stay steady.

My brother did something like that. Pretty effective, after a few days he just had to look at that damn cabbage soup and he'd lose all appetite. It was pitiful.

This is no different than eating vegetables and drinking water for a week.

Something tells me OP is single and farts all night.

R4 - are you aware that vegetarian have things like vitamins?

The cabbage soup diet was a fad at least 20 years ago. I guess it works until you get sick to death of cabbage and quit.

That isn’t food. That is what food eats.

Just make a good vegetable soup, add some peas for protein, and eat that with a salad for lunch or for dinner. The reason why this diet works is because it’s very low in calories. Eat sensible meals for breakfast and lunch, and you will lose weight.

I had the pleasure of tasting this soup when my mother was on a diet, and even though I like cabbage and soups, but this one tastes like dish water.

It's really good if you add some chuck steak an sour cream.

If cabbage gives you a lot of gas, you have a weak constitution. Most people digest it normally, without producing excess gas.

You are honestly better off on the all-meat diet.

I tried making the soup years ago, but Fucked it up like it was something out of Allrecipe.

I don’t buy canned food, so I had to replace all the canned tomato with fresh ones. I don’t use powders, so I added extra onions and garlic to the celery/carrot I started on the stove with some oil. I added endive and boc choy to the cabbage to get them out of the crisper - as well as fresh corn.

It was a good autumn meal starter that replaced salad and called for rich brown buttered bread.

This was called the Dolly Parton Diet twenty years ago. No one knew why, including Dolly!

I still make a pot of this cabbage soup every once in a while.

I’d need to have each bowl with a loaf of bread and butter.

This recipe is boring. I sauté the vegetables first, in some fat (bacon is best). I also use chicken or beef bouillon and at the end, add a sweet and sour to make it even better. A tablespoon of apple cider vinegar and a tablespoon of brown sugar.

Just have a salad for dinner if you want to lose weight. You may technically lose weight with this but you will still look really bloated.

I make cabbage soup, but I do use oil and caramelize onions for the base. I use either mushrooms or carrots, depending on whether I can find mushrooms at the store. Celery, yes.

I don't eat ONLY cabbage soup, but I do substitute it for meals. Yes, it does help keep my weight in check, even if I eat a little bit of cheese with the soup.

Actually, it's delicious, esp. with mushrooms.
