• 1 large head of cabbage
• 1 28oz can of peeled tomatoes
• 6 green onions
• 2 green peppers
• 1/2 lbs of green beans
• 1 bunch of celery
• 3 carrots
• 1 pkg "Lipton Chicken Soup Mix"
• 1/2 bunch of fresh dill
• 1/2 bunch of fresh parsley
• 1 tbsp of garlic salt

Cut first 7 ingredients into small pieces, place in a large saucepan and fill with cold water. Cook for about 20 minutes, or until the vegetables become tender. Mix in the soup mix and cook for another 10 minutes. Add parsley and dill also cut into small pieces. Add garlic salt and pepper to taste. Eat this soup every day while you are on the program, as many times as you like. The soup will not add calories, but do not eat it alone for a long period of time! Next follow the day-by-day instructions below.

Day 1
Eat as many fruits as you like, except bananas. Preferrably cantaloupe and watermelon, for they are very low in calories.

Day 2
Stuff yourself with as many fresh raw vegetables as you like, but do not eat any fruits. For dinner reward yourself with 2 medium baked potatoes with a tablespoon of butter. (Try garlic salt, it tastes very good, especially after the 2 days without cheating).

Day 3
Allow yourself as much fruits AND vegetables as you want except potatoes and bananas.

Day 4
(the hard one!) Eat as many as 3 bananas and drink as much skim milk as you like. On this day your body needs calcium and potassium.

Day 5
You may have upto 20 oz of beef and as many as 6 fresh tomatoes. On this day try to drink close to 2 liters of water.

Day 6
Eat all the beef your heart desires and green vegetables. If you prefer you can substitute beef for chicken.

Day 7
Brown rice and vegetables. There is no limitation, eat as much as you like.

If you have not cheated on any of these days you will see that you have lost 7-15 lbs! You can resume the program the very next day, but if you want, you can cheat for one day.

ABSOLUTELY NO ALCOHOL, BREAD OR CARBONATED DRINKS (EVEN MINERAL WATER) ARE ALLOWED WHILE YOU ARE ON THIS PROGRAM!!!

Every day you can drink plain water, cranberry or any other unsweetened fruit juice.

You will see that you are losing weight very rapidly, but after you have gone down to your ideal weight, try to eat a lot of fruits and green vegetables and keep yourself in shape!

P.S I wish you the best of luck in your fight against Mr. Fat, and hope you do as well as I did. Do not be discouraged by the simplicity of this program - IT WORKS! Of course I have to ask you NOT TO CHEAT! In a couple of weeks when you go out to buy a whole new wardrobe, please drop me a line, I love to hear all the success stories, I have quite a collection now!
