Someone on another (unrelated) forum I visit posted this today.
Just wondered if anyone can confirm this is as ridiculous as I think it is. Especially this line near the end "The diet soup will not add calories; the more you eat the more fat you will lose."
Whaaaaat?
Others are eating this stuff up (lol) and I seem to be the only one who thinks it's nonsense!
What do you guys think?

Diet Fat Burning Soup 7 Day Eating Plan for a Fat Burning Diet:
Here is a 7 day eating plan for a fat burning diet to use with your diet fat burning soup.
DAY 1
You can eat any fruits except bananas. Cantaloupes and water melons are lower in calories than most fruits although not so filling. Eat your diet fat burning soup and fruit on the first day, for drinks choose unsweetened tea, cranberry juice and plenty of WATER.

Do not eat any other fruit or vegetables today!
DAY 5
Beef and tomatoes. You may have as much as ten to twenty ounces of beef and a can of tomatoes, or as many as 6 fresh tomatoes on this day.

If it seems too good to be true, it usually is. I'm a big fan of this quote from the instructions:
"This is a fast fat burning diet, and the secret behind it is that you will be using more calories than you take in."
Well, duh.0 -
My guess is like any fad diet, you will initially lose the weight but when you get off the diet, and you will have to because it is unsustainable, you will gain all of the weight back and probably more.0
-
I have a feeling that this is based on the "Negtive Calorie Foods" list. I'm sure you've all seen it circulated around. The list of foods that contain less calories than you burn consuming them.
All in all, it won't work. Well, it will, but you'll gain in all back as soon as you jump off. Just like the 72hour Hollywood Juice Diet, Cabage Soup Diet, Grapefruit Diet.....0 -
General rule of thumb:
If the diet has the word 'diet' in it, it won't work.0 -
I've just done this properly for the first time (didn't work when I was drinking alcohol or cheated!!
) and I've lost 9lb in 7 days - for the first time in months I can see a difference yaaay 
surely it can't all be water weight as I drink about 2litres a day minimum. I think this is a great boost if you're already on a healthy eating plan back to high protein, low carb and lots and lots of veg next week so hoping I'll stay at this weight and get back into losing! (wouldnt expect it to if I was eating pizza, Mc D's etc its not a miracle plan) 0 -
i used this diet before i initially lost 5kg a week but when i get off the diet, i gain all of the weight back .
i lost 15 k per 3 week and gain 20k after months0 -
I did a similar soup and it does work if, you stay committed , but you can add different veggies to your taste. I hope this helps0
-
That cabbage soup diet has been around since I was kid, and that was a LONG freaking time ago.
Sure it works. You dump a whole bunch of water weight
and then put all the weight right back on when you go back to eating.0 -
Ah, the Cabbage Soup Diet returns with a new name! I remember this first appearing in the 70's; if it was so magical and really worked there wouldn't be any fat people 40 years later.0
-
It is legit and does truly work. Yes, you will gain the weight back IF you go back to eating unhealthy. Its just like anything else, if you exercise and eat healthy you will lose weight. If you quit eating healthy and quit exercising you will gain it back. The key is to gradually work restricted foods back into your diet and continue to exercise. Hope this helps 0
-
Not sure about the diet, but I make a cabbage soup recipe almost identical to that... because I love cabbage soup.0
-
eating soup is great but use common sense it is just a food. You can loose weight without going crazy0
-
I wouldn't touch that diet with a 20 foot pole.0

No.0

This is my go to diet. I use it to lose a few pounds after I have over indulged around the holidays or summer vacation. With this diet I lose weight and feel good. Over time I have added more veggies and fruits to my normal diet because I see how well this diet works short term. After being on the diet I try to eat in a similar fashion to keep the weight off - lots of veggies and fruits, reduce carbs especially bread and pasta. It is amazing how good I feel and how much more energy I have when on this diet. I do include some nuts for snacks. I also make sure to exercise several days of the week.0

So the soup "burns fat" if you claim to be "on a diet"? Sounds perfectly legit.

How to burn fat with soup
1. make soup
2. pour olive oil on top of the soup
3. set fire to the olive oil
ta daaaa!! fat burning soup!!
Serious answer: to burn fat you need to eat at a calorie deficit, i.e. where your body burns more energy than you take in through food. Some kinds of soup can help you to eat less than you burn off, in that they're delicious and filling for the amount of calories in them. Other kinds of soup you'd be surprised at just how many calories are in that small bowl. But if it's yummy and you log the calories and stick to your calorie goal, you can burn fat in spite of them. There's nothing magical about any food that makes it burn fat.0 -

^^^^ this
OP set your MFP goal to lose 1lb a week and stick to that calorie goal, i.e. as close to goal as possible - do some kind of exercise that you enjoy and eat back 80% of the calories. Try to eat protein every day, and in general get enough carbs, fat, vitamins, minerals and fibre. It will take longer to lose the weight, but you'll have the added bonuses of the weight you losing being near enough pure fat and also that it's much much easier to sustain long term.... i.e. staying at goal weight for life instead of yo-yoing.0 -

You're right, 9lbs in 7 days can't all be water.....just 98%, with muscle mass loss as well.
You didn't lose before while "drinking and cheating", as you weren't eating in a deficit then. Why wouldn't people be able to lose by fitting pizza and Mc D's into their calorie/macro goals?0 -

Anything cabbage soup is all the rage these days...off and on.....for weight loss. Particularly the peppers and the onions, since they raise the body temperature they help burn more calories supposedly.....sure, go ahead if you like soups
I'm not a big fan of soup though...just watch the sodium intake..... 0 -
Back in the 70's this was called the "Dolly Parton" diet............notice it's very low fat.....very old school.
I'm sure it's just miraculous :noway: since it's been around so long. They must be running out of new ideas.......seriously wouldn't everyone be thin already if this worked.
Instead of a bullion cube you could use Lipton Soup mix if you're determined.0 -
This really works if you stick to it back in the day my mom did this and it worked,that was 20years ago she has kept the weight off every 12 weeks she repeats this for a week just to clean out her system0

Not only do "negative calories" "not work", they cannot work as advertised. It is impossible for a food to "burn up" more calories than it contains.0 -

I think that some foods actually contain less calories than your body uses to digest them. Celery, for example? And maybe cabbage.0 -
It's not the soup that's magic, it's that you're eating soup (often a low calorie soup) and NOT eating all the other high calorie stuff, so you end up eating at a deficit.0

What's with all the 1st posts on how great this stinky soup thing works??0
