[shygirl25]

hey honey..the only thing i can suggest if your serious about it is the cabbage soup diet you will lose from 7 to 10 pounds in one week..i lost 56pounds off the diet but i dont know how to cook it good... my mom use to cook  for our diet but now i'm in florida and shes in cali.you dont know how much i beg for her to come here to cook that soup for me.

I'm sorry but I had to respond to this message.
Shygirl, you know I have read alot of messages from you that I didnt agree with and at times, I thought you were here with something to gain. But now, I just think that your comment is rediculous and a pure joke. This other message is asking for help and you are rediculing her. Cabbage diet? please leave those unconstructive comments to yourself. girlwithproblems please dont listen to shygirl, I used to be like you, untill i found a weight loss specialist physician. if you are in California, his name is Dr. Kerendian or if you are outside of california, find a doctor who is a bariatric physician. NOT a bariatric surgeon, BUT a bariatric physician.
good luck and let me know if i can help. dont just listen to me, read through out these messages and get your own idea of what is right to do.

Dadd I think that your were a little harsh toward shygirl
She seems to have good intentions and everyone is allowed their own opinions as to how to lose weight quick  Many drastic diets ( cabbage soup )do work but for only so long and  are really bad for you in the long term.

[girlwithproblems]

thanks to everyone.....,shygirl I know you are just trying to help but I really don't think a cabbage diet is right for me. I need something that really works and will keep the weight off. As for dadd I will look into that physician. Please if anyone else has a comment please post. Again, I thank everyone for trying to help.

[shygirl25]

Ok let me rephrase myself for the slow people.....Yes as the other girl stated cabbage soup of course is not a long term weight loss goal. but the question was that this person wanted to loose weight for the holidays so the cabbage soup would be a great jump to permenant weightloss and healthy eating....like i said i did the cabbage soup ware i would have the soup everyday along with fruit,salad,onlt on particular days and friday and saturday my mom would put chicken brest and steak on the grill with some brown rice.you also get to have a baked potato with butter,but my mom did all the fixings i just ate and worked out..and it worked....Like we started on a tuesday by saturday i lost 12pounds in 3weeks i had lost 36pounds....altogeather i had lost a total of 56 pounds like i said my mom we helped eachother and losing weight was cool on that diet.she knew how to fix the food so it would taste good

[shygirl25]

matter fact my mom came down here for two weeks in febuary and she did the soup she had lost 10pounds and i lost 7 only because i was cheating and she still dont know and that was in a week.so if you are trying to loose pounds 4 an occasion or to jump start you, trust me that soup has had many heads turning.the only thing is when i try to make the soup its taste nasty and i throw it away every time so thats why i'm doing the shots....No one has to listen to my suggestions, suit yourself,and i figure you all are lucky because i would never tell people about that soup.... that was my thing,trust i looked good...since people are doughting my soup and all the things that comes with it i'm gonna try it for a week in conjunction with my shots and in 7days i will be back to give my results... i will start on sunday i will report back saturday i weigh 283 now............I WILL SEE YOU ALL IN ONE WEEK...

[shygirl25]

So any one that wants to know my results from the soup come back to this same site saturday at 5:00 est.

[lisapep]

Thank you for your insight and i look forward to seeing your results.  on a side note.. I feel very sad and at times frusturated when people use these rooms as a brow beating session.  If a person does not like what another person has written.. people can state your facts as they know it maybe offer some other advise.. but do not use it as a bashing session. Anyway  Just my 2 cents worth

[spoiled1]

I just wanted to add my two cents to the forum and respond to the young lady looking for a way to lose weight.  I would recommend the Atkins Diet. And it doesn't have to be Atkins specifically, but a low carb, high protein diet. Almost all weight loss programs are suggesting low carb, high protein. I have seen the best results with this. Almost as fast as taking supplements. I am only guessing here because I have never taken a shot or supplement, but judging by what the others are writing. If done correctly you can lose just as much weight. Beware the first phase of Atkins is very restrictive, but it's doable. It's not too expensive either, you are eating regular foods.  Low carb will pull the weight off of you. Please don't forget to exercise.  That is key when you are trying to lose weight. Get active!  Hope this is helpful, good luck!

[shygirl25]

well i know i'm trying the shots but if people really wanna get technical the real weightloss would be the old fashion way keep away from the table excersise regular,leave the junck food alone stop eating late nights add lots of protein to your diet just keep it healthy......and its not what you eat, its how much,how often,and how late..

[DADD]

I did not mean to bash anyone. Im sorry if i hurt feelings.
I just have a strong opinion because I wasted alot of time on alot of different things that people told me. It took me a while to realise that a doctor is the best source and then it took me another while to realise each doctor  only knows what they see or are exposed to. so thats why i'm so big on letting a weight loss doctor handle your weight. with me no one else was able to get a handle on it. but hey thats my opinion. do as you wish. try the cabbage diet or any other diet out there. if it works for you. That is great. Each person here has their own choice, and the beauty of this site is that we can get opinions from others in the same shoes.

[shygirl25]
