How to follow the diet
Basic Fat Burning soup
- 6 Large onions
- 2 Green peppers (bell peppers)
- 2 Cans of tomatoes (diced)
Cut vegetables in small to medium pieces and cover with water. Boil fast for ten minutes. Cook to simmer and continue cooking until vegetables are tender. This soup can be eaten anytime you are hungry. Eat as much as you want, whenever you want. This soup will not add calories. The more you eat the more weight you will lose. Fill a flask in the morning if you will be away during the day.
Note! If this soup is eaten alone for indefinite periods, you would suffer malnutrition. This diet should only be followed for short periods of time – please read disclaimer.
Day One: All fruits except bananas. Cantaloupe and watermelon are lower on calories than most fruits. Eat only the soup and fruits. For drinks – unsweetened tea, cranberry juice or water.
Day Two: All vegetables. Eat until you are stuffed with all the fresh, raw or canned vegetables. Try to eat green, leafy vegetables and stay away from dry limns peas, and corn. Eat along with the soup. At dinnertime on day two, reward yourself with a big baked potato and butter. Do not eat any fruits
Day Three: Eat all the soup, fruits and vegetables you want. Do not have a baked potato. If you have eaten for three days, as above, and have not cheated, you will find you should have lost 5 – 7 lb
Day Four: Bananas and skimmed milk. Eat as many as 3 bananas and drink as many glasses of water as you can on this day along with the soup. Bananas are high in calories and carbohydrates along with the milk, but on this particular day your body will need the potassium, carbohydrates, proteins and calcium to lessen your cravings for sweets.
Day Five: Beef and tomatoes. You may have 10-20 ounces of beef and a can of tomatoes or as many as 6 fresh tomatoes on this day. Try to drink at least 6-8 glasses of water on day five to wash away the uric acid in your body. Eat the soup at least once on day five.
Day Six: Beef and vegetables. Eat to your heart’s content of the beef and vegetables on day six. You can even have two or three steaks if you like with green leafy vegetables, but no baked potato. Be sure to eat the soup at least once.
Day Seven: Brown rice, unsweetened fruit juice and vegetables. Again, stuff yourself and be sure to have the soup at least once.
The end of the seventh day, if you have not cheated on the above diet, you will have lost 10-17lbs. If you have lost more than 15lbs stay off the diet for two full days before resuming the diet again from day one.If correctly followed, it will clean your system of impurities and give you a feeling of well being as never before.After only seven days of this process you will begin to feel lighter by at least 10-15lbs and have an abundance of energy. Continue this plan as long as you like and feel the difference.
This diet is fast, fat burning and the secret is that you will burn more calories than you think. It will flush your system of impurities and give you a feeling of well being. This diet DOES NOT lend itself to drinking any alcoholic beverages at any time because of the removal of the fat buildup in the system. Go off the diet at least 24hrs before any intake of alcohol.Because everyone’s digestive system is different, this diet will affect everyone differently. After day three, you will have more energy than when you began if you did not cheat. After being on the diet for several days you will find your bowel movements have changed. You can eat a cup of bran. Although you can have black coffee with this diet, you may find that you don’t need the caffeine after the third day.Definite NO NO’S… Bread, alcohol, carbonated drinks (including diet drinks), and fried foods. Stick with water, unsweetened tea, black coffee, unsweetened fruit juices, cranberry juice and skimmed milk. You can eat grilled or baked chicken instead of meat (absolutely no skin on chicken)
The basic fat burning soup can be eaten anytime you feel hungry. Eat as much as you like. Remember that the more you eat, the more you will lose. Continue this plan as long as you wish and feel the difference both mentally and physically. If you prefer, you can substitute grilled fish for the beef on only one of the beef days. You need the high-protein in the beef the other days.

i am gonna start this diet tomorrow, wish me luck
Hey all.
Im on weight watchers and have lost 19 lbs(it has taken a few months).
I found out about this diet yesterday and I have 4lb more left to shift, do you think this diet will work if I only do it for a few days and then bk2 my normal meals?
Any insight greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Will be trying this diet out from Monday…I will report back on the 15th with my results.
This is as good as it gets.
Try it, you have nothing to lose other than your belly fat.
I lost 14 pounds within the soup period of seven days,
and six weeks later I have reduced by a further 28 pounds.
This was not difficult, I just stuck to the 7 day menu and relaxed the menu a little after this time.
I would point out that I am not a large person.
So to all you people, who are going to buy the veg and the fruit, get on with it as it will be the best investment you will ever make. GOOD LUCK.
Always knew it wasn’t a level playing field out there. After 3 days I had lost 3lbs – no cheating, wasn’t at all hungry. My friend had lost 6lbs, always hungry and had cheated. Maybe they will believe me now when I say my weight does not come from overeating.!
How do you interpret the skimmed milk. Is this for the banana day only?
I did this diet last week, and YES it does work! I lost 4kg!! After a hedonistic couple of weeks drinking every night with my friend, gorging on chocolate etc, I REALLY needed a good detox!
I used all the ingredients from the local fruit and veg market as above. Couldn’t find onion mix so just added Oxo Vegetable cubes instead. I seasoned my soup with a few dry herbs and on occasions I threw in some Curry Powder and other spices.
The best thing to do is just make sure you’re not starving yourself, always eat the soup when hungry. Preparing to soup initially takes time, so make sure you’ve made enough the night before so when breakfast comes, you don’t have to wait!
During the diet I felt a little lethargic at times, on the banana day I had so much energy though! I went for a big run and did lots of exercises later. The next day I was very weak though, so don’t overdo it on excercise! I drank soooo much water on this diet, it’s unbelievable!
I had skinless chicken instead of beef. I ate 4 fillets on day 6!
I loved the veg days, I steamed my vegetables to retain all the nutrients and goodness. You then just add these to the soup, so tasty!
The morning of day 8 (END OF THE DIET!) was amazing, My breakfast of muesli with eggs on toast was like pure heaven. I’d missed all my normal foods! The end of the diet makes you appreciate good food! I have no craving for sweets now really, just the urge to get back into a normal, healthy balanced diet.
You shouldn’t continue with this diet for more than one week. You do lack some important essential foods whilst doing this diet. It’s a one week “fix” to get you back on track, then just continue a healthy diet, but don’t overdo it!
BAD POINTS ABOUT THE DIET:- You won’t have a sex life for a week. I smelt like a bad rotting cabbage ALL THE TIME. My breath was toxic and the gases that came out of my other end were revolting. My boyfriend hated it and wouldn’t go near me! Just shows that the detox is flushing everything out of your system!
It’s also unsociable, I missed out on a few social meals, you’ll miss ordinary food like bread and eggs!
But the good outweigh the bad, I’m 4kg lighter, have a lot of energy. It’s only 7 days of your life, something you can tick off your “to do” list! I’d recommend to anyone who has a week off and nothing to do. !!!
Go for it! and goodluck!
I have used beef soy from the frozen food section at Asda instead of beef. For the low calorie soup mix I’ve used packet soup, the 10 calorie one from Morrissons has an onion flavoured version.
Can anyone tell me what is low calorie soup mix?
Is it just stock cubes?
I am vegetarian I cant eat beef please let me know what can i eat
So far, this diet is not as bad as I expected. I’m on day 4 and have lots almost 6 pounds! I came across a banana milk/smoothie recipe that is really good… and is good for the banana milk day!
a cup of milk, banana, half teaspoon of vanilla extract, and a dash (or two) of cininamin (sp?)!
I used two cups milk and 2 bananas for lunch… it’s filling and yummy! Also.. you may want to use frozen bananas, or leave the smoothie in the fridge for a while so it can get cold. and add as much vanilla or cinamin as you want.
Cheers!
4 pounds in two days! This is the best diet ever and i love that you can eat as much as you want! I’m loving the soup, for those who hate cabbage (like me) i got this recipe from above. Will post it again so you can find iteaiser!
26. kelly shenton | November 9th, 2007 at 6:09 pm
i just have to add this is the recipe i was given slightly diff then above , how ever menus for day to day were exactly the same!!
3 lrge onions
1 green peppers
1 bunch celery
1 can green beans (I USED FRESH)
2 pounds of carrots
1 packet of low calorie dry veg/onion soup (I USED OXO CUBES)
cover the veg in water
i added garlic
I started this diet today. So far it doesn’t seem to hard… I think it helps to just snack on the fruit all day, and use a variety of types of fruits (and veggies on the veggie day, etc.). I had a bunch of fruit for breakfast with some tea, a generous bowl of soup for lunch and have been eating handfuls of fruit whenever every hour or so, and I feel full! I’m going to try this out and hopefully kick start some weight loss, because my body has issues processing food, and so wieght has been an major issue for me. My aunt (who is a nurse) told me this is supposed to work chemically, so I’m hoping I will have some success!
My wife started the diet regime on Monday the 4th of Aug and i joined her the next day. So far on day 3, she has lost 2kg and i 1kg. Its looking really good. I had a bout of headache earlier toady, but thanks to God that has now vanished. For all those still contemplating starting, i’ll say get cracking asap because its all in the mind. If you remember that people survived without food after being trapped under rubles in the China Earthquake after 7 days, you will be grateful to God for giving you good health and a sound mind to consciously embark on a diet programme.
No one has posted on this diet blog for a month so i thought i would. I am going on this diet tomorrow using a recipe that somebody posted above as i made the cabbage one and i smelt so bad that out neighbors complained! Yikes! I am going to post again to tell you my progress as reading all your positive feedback persuded me that this is a good idea! That soup smells great!!!
Hey, im starting this diet tommorow to kick start a healthy eating switch over, as I want to lose 2-3 stone as I have gained alot of weight over the last few years. I have my friends wedding to go to in three weeks, so hopefully will see results by then? Goodluck to anyone else trying this at the moment. Love Jo
Hi there. I am now on Day 7 of this diet which I got from this website. I heard about all the weight lost and got inspired. I weighed on the morning of day 4 and had lost 6 lb so was feeling great. However, since then I have been sticking to the diet but don’t feel that my body is changing. I feel bloated and wobbly! I’ll be doing my final weigh tomorrow morning so here’s hoping. Anyone else feel that they lost the most in the first half of the week and then tailed off?
I have been doing a few sit ups, but should I be doing more toning exercises?
Hi everyone well it is 4.30 in the afternoon of day 1 and I am just starting to get a headache feel good apart from that though, but I think I will be sick of the soup by the end of the week!!
I have decided to do 1 week on one week off so that I dont get bored of it
If anyone else is starting this today and wants to keep me on the straight and narrow my email addy is dollydumbass@hotmail.com
Ps do you think it will matter that I am going to a bowling party on Thursday night and am having burger and chips I dont expect to loose the 15lbs in a week that it claims you can but I am worried that eating bread is going to mess my system up
hi if anyone wants to start this tomorrow – june 24th – email me – lil_old_me__@hotmail.com – i could use a buddy to help me stick to it!
Started diet on 19th as I said I would. Found day 2 the hardest. Didt miss wine as mch as I thought I would. But hey i have lost 13 lbs. My husbad only lost 7 lbs. Not stayig on it though but it has kick started me to be good. Good luck everyone.
This diet sounds great!
Although it’s slightly misnamed IMO. I prefer the name “initial water loss diet” as in the first 7 days of most diets you can expect to lose 5 – 10 pounds in bodily water, not fat unfortunately. Get a good, aerobic exercise & a SENSIBLE eating regime & generally smarten up!
Hey everybody, i am starting this diet tomorrow, but i cant seem to find a shop that sells onion soup mix? so iv made it without is that allowed? just made a veg stock. and also i could i use chopped tomatoes instead of canned ones ? please would some1 let me know, it would be greatly appreciated.i am currently 9st 10lbs(previously 10st 7 but dropped weight with going gym) and am hoping to get down to about 9st for my holidays in july. or somewhere around that mark. will keep u all posted and good luck to everybody starting this diet!!

I started this diet on wed 23rd april – weighed myself today and have lost 10 lbs!!!! unbelievble – 10 lbs in 4 days. Feel so much more full of energy, will definitely carry on with the soup on mondays to fridays until my wedding in september. Never stuck to diets before but this is so easy!!
On day 5 of diet and lost approx. 5llb, found it really hard to begin with, even seeing a salad sandwich made my mouth water. However, stuck with it so far. I don’t like bananas so I liquidised them with the skimmed milk into a drink and found I quite enjoyed them. On the veg only days, I juiced carrots into a drink for breakfast and found this quite filling. Hope these tips can be of help and would welcome any one elses suggestions as I will probaby try again in a couple of weeks time.
Hey, I started the diet today and so far so good. Went and did my weigh in and how depressing so thats just spurged me on, need to lose about 3 stone asap!!!! Let you know how i get on peeps

after,i week i lost only 1 to 3 lb…i don[t knw y…
can any one tel me,th correct diet to reduce my weight…
thanks
I cannot do this diet for 7 days. I only do it a couple of days once on a while and I lose 2 to 3 lbs. I keep them down with exercise. I find it easier to do it little by little but keeping the weight off.
where can I order the diet patch?
starting diet on wednesday keep you posted on how i go on
Does anyone know if kindey beans count as a veggie? I’ve done this before and lost 8 pounds. My hubby lost 11 pounds. I found it also sort of reset my taste buds. I found that after this diet, other simple yet healthy foods never tasted so good. It made it easier to stick to a healthier lifestyle of eating. Anyhow…I thought this time kidney beans would be a little more filling on veggie day. Any thoughts?
I really need to loose these winter pounds! I’ve heard about this diet and can’t wait to try it! Still have to pick up the groceries, so I’m going to start this diet on Thursday. Is anyone else thinking of starting this week! Would be great to have a support team going! I’m not the best at sticking to diets!
HI
Im starting the diet today as Im getting married in 2 weeks and really need to loose some weight quickly. Have bought the ingredients but was going to use parsnips instead of cabbage fingers crossed I can manage this will let you know how I get on
One more thing, and I will try not to make any typos
The baked potato is so important!! It helps you get through the day. Vegetable day is kind of hard but the results are worth it. The potato does not have to be for dinner, have it earlier in the day if that helps get you through.
I thought having headaches was just a problem I had, but I noticed that many of you are complaining of headaches as well. My thoughts are that there is such a drastic drop in the amount of calories from eating what I wanted to eating what is required on this diet that my body is just trying to adjust. I think everyone probably already knew that but I had to say it anyway. I’m starteing the diet on Sunday. and I’m so excited, I have had nothing but great results on this diet and it’s healthy. I finally found a way of eating that I can deal with. As I do this diet over and over I get very creative with the vegatable day. I sautee yellow, red, and orange bell peppers together because they taste sweet , its really a pick me up. I just use a non-stick spray and dump my veggies in the pan. It’s sooooooo good. I love this diet and I know I will lose a significant amount of weight!
Have just started on ‘the diet’ again today – had forgotten how hard the first day is with just fruit and soup!! Am so hungry at work – thank goodness it’s nearly time to go home!! I don’t think I’ll stick to it as rigidly as last time – but you never know!
Hi ppl just wondering, that I have a very bad stomach ache and is it ok to continue as Im a diabetic??
hi, i have done the diet in the past and lost 19 pounds in 2 weeks with a couple days break in between, which is fantastic considering i cant stick to diets! bad thing is i put the weight all back on within a few weeks of ‘normal’ eating! i am starting the diet again tomorro and with moderate exercise and some weights i hope to lose around 28 pounds by march 9th to fit into my LBD for my birthday!!! good luck my head is telling me!
And in response to this question:
“19. jayne | September 20th, 2007 at 3:33 pm
Has anyone tried this diet in conjunction with Xenical ?”
Maybe you should consider speaking to someone about your impending eating disorder.
I have done this diet before with a s lightly different recipe.
The one i found used Shitake mushrooms and dried seaweed (as has cleansing stuff in it) and i lost heaps.
It also contained garklic which helped with the taste!!
I am buying the ingredients on my way home from work tonight and getting started tomorrow I am doing this with a work colleague and hope to get the fantastic results wish me luck with sticking to it!!.
Just finished my week – I had lost 7lbs by day 5 and at the end of day 7 I was still stuck at the half stone mark but this doesn’t surprise me as no matter what diet I follow I never lose weight – I find I have to get active to shift it. However saying that I am pleased with half a stone and I’m going to eat ‘normal’ foods this week (although no bread,ptoatoes,etc) and go back on it again next week. I’ll try it week about to see if it might boost my metabolism. I can honestly say I have lost my cravings for bread, sweets, etc – it was like a detoxifier! I have noticed an improvement in my skin as well!
Hi,
I am now on day 2, I feel fine. Last night Ifelt verv tired. I also used carrots instead of cabbage. I love the soup, I added chilli to it. I must say the banana and milk day is going to be interesting because I dont like milk and bananas. I am determined to go through with it I need to loose atleast 10pounds.
Bye
Today is day six, and I am happy to boast I have one more day to go, and my weight is down by 8kg. The most I have ever lost in such a short time. For those who are finding it hard the end reward is worth it. I will be doing it again after a few days break. My goal is to be 56kg again.
Now on day 4 – have lost 5lbs so trying to stick with it. Very tired however – just have no energy but when you think about all you’re eating – is it any wonder really? Is nayone still reading this blog?!
For those of you who cannot drink milk, I am taking calcium tablets everyday, so I have no need for the milk. Also note that most veg & fruit have potassium. Speak to your pharmacy, about potassium supplements, if you cannot eat bananas. I have not felt this well in years with this 7 day diet. If the diet gets you down after two or three days, cheat and have a salad that evening with a very lean streak, or skinless chicken. than go back to the diet the next day. It has worked for others that I know on this diet.
Good Luck
