Cabbage Soup Diet

[philosophersavant]

Before being diagnosed with Type 2 I did the CSD. I lost 4 stone and kept it off. I was over 18 stone then. I'm now down to 12 stone. Does anyone have an idea how to make this way of eating for a vegetarian diabetic? Seriously, I felt so well when I was on it. Thanks.

I couldn’t survive on a diet so low in calories as the CSD and where’s the protein? I’ve heard that we should consume 1g of protein per pound of ideal body weight every day. So in my case 147lb = 147g I’ve lost 4st eating keto, which for me, I could maintain for the rest of my life. I don’t worry about calorie counting though but concentrate on carb counting.

The protein is Quorn. I'll have it 5 days. Chickpeas.
