Testing the Cabbage Soup Diet - Day 2

#1. Testing the Cabbage Soup Diet - Day 2

Testing the Cabbage Soup Diet - Day 2

Day 2 of the cabbage soup diet and today's been a microscopic harder. I've been a bit tired on and off, quite lightheaded (especially early in the morning) and I've had a splitting ill which I've finally resorted to Ibuprofen to knock out.

Testing the Cabbage Soup Diet - Day 2

First thing I also had a real wave of nausea, which I initially notion was going to keep me away from classes today, but it passed pretty quickly. Initially I notion "well, there you go, diet over", but I've since complete that it was probably my zinc supplement, which has hit me the same way previously when I took it on an empty stomach - obviously my gulped bowl of soup wasn't adequate to cushion it. I've just had my second bowl of the day, so we'll soon tell if it's the soup or not.

I must say by the end of yesterday I was pretty tired of the soup, and this morning it was a real endeavor to force it down. But on getting home I remembered that a incorporate of population had suggested pureeing it (the basic formula is eaten like a chunky minestrone) to make it more palatable, so I blended the last bowl right down and it was genuinely very nice.

Today's supplementary food is vegetables of any kind, including a baked potato, so rather than muck about loading up a thermos with soup I took some celery sticks and two whole peeled carrots into university with me to munch on.

Again I was struck by how much I'm enjoying the flavours and natural sweetness of the vegetables - probably still just the difference with the bland soup. I'm salvage my baked potato as an evening treat (I genuinely am beginning to crave starchy foods, which probably is for real after two days, but it's not insurmountable).
