How to Make the Soup
More Tasty?
Questions:
|
I'm 21 years old... I compete in
pageants and weigh 141 lbs. I would like to get down to 115-120.
I need something to jumpstart me, I've tried Atkins, SlimFast, etc. I'm interested in this diet, but my only concern
is the soup... I'm not a big veggie person but I'm willing to do
anything to get this weight off. Is there anyway to spice it up
that you might could share? Anybody with a variation of the
recipe that makes it less vegetabley? Maybe just make it taste
better? Also... does it smell really bad when you cook it? I'm
not sure my roommates would like that too much.

I'm just trying this soup diet
again. The first time I tried it it was great, mainly because it
was a new thing and I managed to stay on the slop for Two weeks.
After That I have re-visited it about two more times, and I
could barley get past a few days.
I couldn't stand the sight (or the smell) of it... anyone got
any suggestions on how to make this stuff taste a little
different, I've tried the combinations but it all tastes the
same... Not to mention it hurts eating this stuff after
awhile... I get the feeling that sometimes these diets are
designed for people who don't move around much, but after I've
come off a 12 hour shift at work I need something a little more
substantial or I begin to feel dizzy..
So, anyone out there got any suggestions on how to liven this
soup up a bit??By zod |

Are both the Lipton soup mix and
water mandatory? Is it possible to just use the tomatoes and
less water and still achieve the same results? Please help. Need
some ideas on how to spruce this soup up.

seasoning does pretty well. This is cheating but towards the end
of the week I've been known to add a can of crab meat. It makes
it like Maryland crab soup. Crab meat is really low in
fat/calories. I have also made it with sliced okra and it is
kind of gumbo-like. I have noticed that I don't lose quite as
much when I cheat like this, that is why it's good to do towards
the end of the week when you can't stand the soup plain anymore.
You are also allowed to add as much cayenne pepper or hot sauce
you want if you like it hot. By IvaBigbottie

| I have been using this
diet on and off for a couple of years and have found it
to be very effective. I am making a new batch of soup
tonight and plan to add ground beef & hot sauce as well
as the other seasonings that are listed in the cabbage
diet recipe. (I've tried adding ground beef to the soup
in the past and lost the same amount of weight that I
would have lost without the ground beef. Hope this
helps. By ceal |
| I stuck to the recipe to
the letter when I first started then started to play
with it a bit. I no longer use the Lipton - sometimes I
use bouillon, sometimes not. Bay leaves work great and I
now add brussel sprouts, chopped spinach and sometimes
broccoli to the mix. It's wonderful, not to mention it's
a nice change to the taste. I've also added soy sauce.
It's been successful for me so the alteration to the
soup didn't affect the end result.
