Sacred Heart Diet, cleansing/detox Options

[stephinika]

So I just thought I'd share this 7-day diet that is a cleansing/detox but also helps you lose weight. Its actually a pretty healthy diet as well as it gives your body only the nutrients and stuff it needs. I did it and it actually works. Its based on this soup that you can eat as much as you want when you're hungry, and then each day theres a certain other type of food you can eat.
The soup isn't bad but after a few days I got sick of it but I dealt with it. Just thought I'd share.

That diet will make you lose muscle weight from proteolysis. That's why it's used for overweight patients in order to lose weight quickly. A piece of fruit isn't a complete meal.

The soup actually sounds kind of good.

It's questionable how this diet cuts out bread completely. I know some other diets do that too, but eh. And like Reidar said, eating only fruit or only vegetables for a whole day (plus the soup) doesn't constitute complete meals.

But if it worked for you, that's good.

It's only for a week but its not so bad. *shrug*

My biggest concern would be gaining the weight back as soon as you start eating regularly. Also, between the stewed tomatoes, beef broth and soup mix, that sounds like a lot of sodium.
