Is the cabbage soup diet safe and does it work? -

i know someone who is 14 years old and she is 5 feet tall and less than 130 pounds but tthats a bit heavy for her height and she wants to go on this diet..i think its fine cuz everyone i talk to says it works..she knows this wieght loss she does lose from this cabbage soup diet wont be permanent but she does need to lose weight quickly for a short period of time...can she do it?..i doubt it will ruin her body cuz it is only for a short period of time..please dont tell me crap like, oh shes too young and shes so light or whatever..just help me out!

It works, but like most diets the second you break off of it you gain the weight back real quick. Her best bet would be to exercise.

no its not safe and yes it does work.. until you re of it, then you gain everything back plus 5

No diets are safe. Diets starve the body of nutrients and initially you ll lose a few pounds but eventually gain it back.What she should do is drink water in between meals. When she is hungry she should eat small meals every few hours--ie. cheese and crackers or a Nutrigrain bar and fruit.Smaller meals every few hours helps regulate the metabolism and speed it up.Walking or going out biking, etc helps too.No diets or starving yourself. It s no good.So the idea is to keep eating, but substitute junk food and high-fat foods for fruits, veggies and balanced diet.Everything in moderation though.

with the cabbage soup diet youll lose weight and fast, but since its only water weight you gain it back quickly when you stop the diet. your friend will lose weight quickly if she follows it exactly but only for a short period of time

Sure, your friend will lose weight if she follows this diet. And possibly a lot of weight in a little amount of time. It will be a good jump start. but before starting check out this site for more info:http://www.magnetic-diet.com/cabbage-sou��
