What Can I Eat on The Cabbage Soup Diet Plan?
This diet consists of cabbage soup, eaten at least 2 to 3 times a day (or AS MUCH as you want) with other allowed foods as follows:
- Day 1: Eat low-sugar fruits only (i.e. avocado, stone fruits such as peach, apricots, and plums), grapes, honeydew melon, oranges, grapefruit, berries, and cherries. Do not eat bananas! Meal Suggestions: Slushie, large fruit salad, fruit juice without straining, frozen grapes, etc
- Day 2: Eat Non-Starch Vegetables only (i.e. cauliflower, broccoli, peppers, tomatoes, leafy greens, etc). This is my least favorite day because the only foods I eat all day are veggies and the vegetable diet soup. Meal Suggestions: Cauliflower rice with sauteed mushrooms, roasted veggies, stir-fry zucchini or eggplant, air-fried green beans, and a large salad.
- On Day 3: Eat Low-sugar fruits and non-starchy vegetables only. Meal Suggestions: Fruit or veggie salad, a green smoothie, mushroom steak, cauliflower steak, and cabbage steaks seasoned with salt and pepper plus olive oil (without soy sauce and other condiments).
- Day 4: Eat bananas and skim milk/low-fat yogurt only. Meal Suggestions: A banana parfait, a banana smoothie, frozen yogurt bars with bananas only, baked bananas, or banana chips.
- Day 5: Eat protein (i.e. fish, beef, or baked chicken breast without the skin) and tomatoes only. Meal Suggestions: Air fryer chicken thighs (skin removed after cooking) or air fryer salmon with pan-fried tomatoes, Grilled chicken breast with fresh tomatoes and basil leaves, baked salmon with tomatoes, ground beef stewed in tomato sauce, etc
- On Day 6: Eat protein and non-starchy vegetables only. Meal Suggestions: Fried cauliflower rice with veggies and eggs, baked chicken thighs (skin removed after cooking) with roasted veggies,
- Day 7: ½ cup brown rice or a small baked potato (Russet or Sweet), unsweetened fruit juices, low-sugar fruits, and non-starchy vegetables only. A whole grain starch (brown rice) was added to the last day of the diet, preparing your body to eat starchy foods. Meal Suggestions: Baked sweet potatoes with cinnamon, potato chips, or fried brown rice with sauteed mushrooms, fruit juice without straining, large fruit or veggie salad with mixed green leaves, etc
- Day 8: You will feel much lighter (about 10+ lbs)! To keep your amazing results, start eating a balanced, healthy diet (whole grains, lean protein, healthy fats, fruits, and veggies) and keep drinking plenty of water. You may start exercising again!
NOTE: Every single day make sure to drink at least 8 glasses of water to hydrate your body and eat as much cabbage weight loss soup as you want several times per day.
What is the Cabbage Soup Diet?
The Cabbage Soup Diet has variations, but it is mainly:
- A low-calorie diet (around 1,000 calories per day);
- Low-fat;
- High-fiber;
- It can be low-carb on most days.
Yet it is not vegetarian or vegan because limited amounts of animal protein are allowed on a couple of days. This is a rigid diet – with little room for tweaks, just like the military diet.
What Are the Pros and Cons?
Pros (Cabbage Soup Benefits):
- Quick weight loss – up to 10 pounds or more in only 7 days.
- Body detox and a kickstart to a sustainable diet.
- It may have anti-inflammatory properties, depending on the ingredients. Our cabbage diet soup recipe does have some, such as turmeric, garlic, lemon, and spinach.
Cons:
- If you don't drink plenty of water and start a balanced diet, you may regain weight fast as well.
- It is a fairly boring diet since it mostly consists of cabbage soup.
Is This a 7-Day Weight Loss Cabbage Soup (Wonder Soup)?
Yes! With this cabbage soup diet, you can lose 10 pounds (4.5 kg) or more in 7 days. This is a fast weight-loss diet, ideal to shed weight after the holiday binge, or for a special event. But be aware that this is not a permanent solution because long-term your body can run out of essential nutrients.
How Much Weight Can You Lose On The 7-Day Cabbage Soup Diet?
There are many factors to consider such as gender and age, whether you follow the diet strictly or cheat, and to what degree. But most people reported losing up to 10 or more pounds in one week on cabbage soup for weight loss. Keep in mind that the weight that you'll lose is a combination of water, fat, and even muscle.
How Does the Cabbage Soup Diet Work?
This is a low-calorie intake diet (around 1,000 calories per day) and its main purpose is quick weight loss -- 10 pounds or more in 7 days. In addition, it is mostly low-carb, vegetarian, and vegan!
On the 7-day cabbage soup diet, you'll follow a specific eating plan every day. This means you will eat as much weight-loss cabbage soup as you want, drink at least 8 cups of water per day, and eat certain foods each day of the week.
This diet soup is also known under other names such as Wonder Soup, Weight Loss Soup, Miracle Soup, WW Cabbage Soup, Detox Soup, Fat-Burning Soup, Detox Soup, and Weight Watchers Cabbage Soup.
Can I Exercise on The Cabbage Soup Diet?
Exercise is not recommended while on this restrictive diet, especially at moderate to high levels. Why? Because this is a low-calorie diet-- one that can leave you weak even without exercising. You'll likely get around 1,000 calories or less a day which is about half of the 2,000 daily calories that most adults should get.
Who Can or Cannot Do The 7-Day Soup Diet
It works well for those who are obese and need to lose weight fast to undergo surgery. If you have any condition, such as diabetes, consult your doctor before making the cabbage diet soup. Your blood sugar levels may drop a lot. It also won't have a long-lasting impact on heart disease, lowering cholesterol, or treating high blood pressure.
7-Day Cabbage Soup Diet FAQs
To begin with, you should always ask your doctor before starting any diet, including this cabbage soup diet. Here are a few often-asked questions about one of the most well-known weight loss soups and its diet:
This is a strict diet that does not allow tweaks. But I have to say that I lost 3 pounds in 5 days only by eating large amounts of this diet cabbage soup and eating outside of the diet a few times but mostly up to 1300 calories a day.
It allows for drinking water, coffee, or unsweetened herbal tea – but not alcohol or sodas. But I confess that I drank diet tea (stevia-based). It has zero calories but is not detox.
Yes! Although I am used to dieting, I felt more tired on this cabbage soup diet than on others. I also felt weak, had issues focusing, and was highly irritable and hungry.
This is a 7-day diet only – it's super-restrictive and can make you feel weak, lose focus, and run low on nutrients. For these reasons, do not stay on the diet beyond 7 days. This diet is ideal for detoxing the body and preparing it for a sustainable diet.
Be sure to drink a lot of water so your body won't hold on to fluids, and start a balanced healthy diet.
The original cabbage soup diet recipe is vegan/vegetarian and calls for vegetable broth. However, if you aren't on a diet, you can use beef or chicken broth and even add some beef or shredded chicken to the soup.
Although most cabbage soup recipes for weight loss call for green cabbage (the most common type), you can use purple cabbage (which contains a higher level of antioxidants) or a mix of both. They have the same amount of calories!
Cabbage Soup Diet Recipe Ingredients
Although most recipes have bouillon/water and veggies in common, there are different recipes for the diet soup. Our diet cabbage soup recipe is low-fat and has low-carb veggies, among other ingredients that are detox and anti-inflammatory, such as spinach, garlic, turmeric, tomatoes, and lemon juice. It is similar to Weight Watchers Cabbage Soup!
Here are the ingredients for the weight-loss cabbage soup recipe that maximizes weight loss while detoxing:
- Olive oil
- Yellow Onion (or white)
- Pepper
- Garlic
- Tomato
- Cabbage (purple or green cabbage)
- Celery stalks
- Low-sodium vegetable broth
- Tomato paste
- Lemon Juice
- Turmeric
- Broccoli slaw (optional)
- Spinach
Variations on The Cabbage Soup Diet Recipe
We added turmeric to the original cabbage soup diet recipe to make it also anti-inflammatory. This is a vegan recipe but you can add some animal protein to it on the days you should eat either beef or chicken. The soup itself tastes amazing and many love to eat it even when they are not on the diet. Most add some protein! Here are a few suggestions:
- Vegetarian: You can add a heavy cream or half-and-half and blend the soup until creamy and smooth, making it a vegetarian bisque.
- Pescatarian: You can season with salt and pepper and pan-sear chunks of salmon, cod, or halibut in olive oil to add to the soup.
- High-Protein: You can add hamburger, chopped ham, shredded chicken, beef chunks, or sausage. It's a great way to use leftovers. Or, you may add some plant-based protein such as brown lentils or chickpeas for a healthy cabbage soup recipe.
How to Store
- Fridge: Store homemade cabbage soup in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3-4 days. Reheat it, covered, in the microwave or on medium-low heat on the stovetop.
- Freezer: Freeze for up to 4-6 months. Thaw in the fridge and reheat well.
Can I Make Cabbage Soup Diet Recipe Ahead?
Yes! If you are trying the cabbage soup diet, you'll want to make a large batch of weight-loss cabbage soup in advance. Then, divide the soup into 2 batches, keeping one in the fridge for up to 4 days, and freeze the other to thaw for the rest of the 7 days. Of course, you can also freeze it for up to 4-6 months. Thus, if you work outside the home, you can portion it out into individual servings for a grab-and-go meal.
Meal Prepping Cabbage Soup Diet Recipe
There are 2 ways to meal prep this weight-loss cabbage soup: Either preparing a large batch in advance or prepping all the ingredients ahead to mix them for when you need them.
- Prep Extra: Cut all the veggies and make the soup in advance for the 7 days you'll be on the diet. You may have to double the recipe, making it in a large pot on the stovetop. Depending on the capacity of your slow cooker or Instant Pot, it won't allow you to double the recipe.
- Store Extra: You can make the full recipe in advance and divide it into individual containers in the fridge or freezer, or divide the ingredients into containers to combine them for when you need them.

Tabby says
Hi there,
Can I do this for a week take a week off and then do it again for another week?
Denise Browning says
Depending on your overall health, you can. But keep in mind because this is a very restrictive diet, don't be doing it every other week. It is a kick start for another diet that is more balanced and nutritious that can bring your weight down without depleting your body.
Beth says
It’s not good before a surgery as it’s been said that turmeric can act as a blood thinner.
Denise Browning says
Beth, as I said in my post, any person who intends to do a diet needs to consult their doctor first. Every person has different health issues and needs. Some are quite special such as surgery. Only a doctor can determine well whether a certain diet is suitable or not for their patients. But turmeric is something easy to fix -- don't add it to the diet soup if you cannot have it for any reason. The 7-day diet itself is the one that has to be asked of the person's doctor.
Jim Drennen says
Common mistake is to make a big pot and reheat the whole pot everyday. If you make a big pot break it down into daily servings and only reheat what you need for a meal; otherwise the flavors meld an it gets mushy. I also recommend adding a bunch of mushrooms and yellow squash and zucchini.
Denise Browning says
Hi Jim! My recipe doesn't ask to reheat the whole pot of soup every day. Of course, you only reheat the portion you will eat at every meal. If you intend to eat one cup of soup at lunchtime, you only reheat that one cup of soup. This goes for any food dish, not only this soup. Reheating more than what you will eat not only alters the texture of the food but also decreases the veggies' nutritional value.
Sherry Moncada says
This soup was so easy to make!
Very tasty!
Thank you for sharing this recipe
Day 1 , hopefully I shed a few pounds, however it’s so delicious I don’t care
Denise Browning says
Hey Sherry! Thanks so much for your feedback. I am so happy you enjoyed our cabbage soup diet recipe. Wishing you much success on your weight loss journey.
Amber says
The recipe is very tasty! I’m on day two so can’t confirm further results but am curious about the purpose of which foods on which days. Like why bananas and skim milk and only on one day? It seems a bit arbitrary.
Denise Browning says
Hi Amber! Some fruits or certain types of protein on some days but not on others is for making us eat a variety of them during these 7 days. The diet is already restrictive in calories and if you don't eat at least a small variety of them your body will be depleted of some vitamins and nutrients and will be very boring or repetitive. We already have to eat this cabbage soup several times per day during these 7 days, so it would be worse if you had to eat exactly the same fruits in all meals these 7 days. If you don't drink cow's milk you can replace it with plant-based or reduced-fat yogurt with a compatible number of calories because this diet is about calorie restriction.
Tysonja Purvis says
Are there any substitutions for day 4? I don't eat bananas or drink skim milk (lactose intolerant).
Denise Browning says
Hi Tysonja! If you don't eat bananas, you can replace them with small apples or pears. As for milk, you can replace it with plant-based milk or any dairy-free one.
Alice McMillan says
I tried the recipe I could eat this everyday!!
Denise Browning says
Yay! I am so happy to hear that! My husband said the same when I first made this soup.
Gale says
I cannot do bell peppers of any type. Will this effect the value of the recipe
Denise Browning says
Hi Gale! Do not worry about either skipping or replacing the bell peppers. If you cannot eat them, you may replace them with tomatoes if you want.
Rahul Dubey says
That's looking too delicious. As I don't like eating much of veggies but will surely try adding this healthy recipe in my diet.
Denise Browning says
Hi Rahul! I hope you enjoy it. It is full of flavor and a great way to eat veggies. If you prefer, you can blend all the veggies with the broth in a blender to make a creamy version.
Sandra says
hi love the soup delicious
the only problem I cant have meat
can I substitute baked tofu and
how mauch
thanks
Denise Browning says
Hi Sandra! I am so glad you enjoy this cabbage diet soup. Yes, you can replace any type of meat with tofu or any other plant-based protein source. Please take a look at the number of calories in tofu and try to match it with the calories for chicken or beef. For example, if 3 oz of grilled chicken strips has 110 calories, you would eat as much tofu as needed to ingest 110 calories.
Mulher fitness says
My son made this soup today and it turned out great. Congratulations on the article
Jo says
Hi, I'm starting the diet tomorrow, I did this diet over 20 years ago and found it good. It was very basic then though. My question is... while making the soup, can I put it in a food blender so the soup is finely chopped, or is it better cut up chuncky? I'm thinking chuncky as it will fill up the tummy better, but can it be procced in a blender for a smoother soup? Is however you cook it OK? Also, are you allowed full fat milk or does it have to be semi skimmed?
Denise Browning says
Hi Jo! Yes, you can blend the soup in a blender until smooth but the chunks will fill you up for longer. You can use either full-fat or semi-skinned milk, although the latter is less caloric. This is a low-calorie diet!
Roshawn says
Is there a brown rice that is low carb?
Denise Browning says
Hi Roshawn! Brown rice is not low carb. It is high in fiver but not low in carbs. Low-carb rice is made with cauliflower.
Maureen says
I am about to start this Cabbage Soup Diet as a kick start. I am awaiting surgery (no date yet, injury was June 2021!) for a torn ankle tendon and have to be non weight bearing for 12 weeks. I am getting prepared in advance but carrying less weight will definitely help.
Denise Browning says
Hi Maureen! I wish you all the best in your surgery and a quick recovery. And yes, when one has a serious bodily injury, carrying less weight around helps. Please let me know whether you have any questions about this cabbage soup diet. Please make sure to read the post because it explains more details, especially for those who can and cannot do this diet.
Bronwen says
I don't find the soup ever boring. I can make each bowl whatever I feel like. To be Thai I add some curry paste, Asian just add lemon grass, corriander and an Asian green, Mediterranean basil. Thyme and marjoram, Morrocan ground cumin and coriander. It can be so different each time. If I don't feel full a good bit of Chile makes feel satisfied. Have a good look in your herb and spice rack and get creative
Lisa Albright says
Any chance you can tell me substitutions for vegan? For instance, what would I ad din instead of beef or hicken, dairy??
Denise Browning says
Hi Lisa! The best vegan substitute for beef and chicken is tofu. Other alternatives are soy protein and tempeh. As for dairy sub, I would drink a plant-based milk that contains protein such as soy milk. Unfortunately almond milk has almost no protein. I hope this may help you! It is key that you ingest protein while doing this diet.
Amy Fyock says
This soup is delicious.
Elaine Schecter says
I'm making this soup today. or maybe I should wait a couple days. Does this soup make youhave the runs? The reason I ask is that I have a full 2 days of school= Monday & Tuesday. Thanks. Elaine S.
Denise Browning says
Hi Elaine! The soup didn't give me the runs or any other side effect except I felt a little weak on the first day only.
Laura Marble says
Are there other veggies that can be added to the soup?
Denise Browning says
Hi Laura! You can add any low carb vegetables of your choice such as squash, broccoli, greens beans, mushrooms, cauliflower, all types of green leaves, etc.
Nisrine says
Hello. What can I substitute milk and banana on day 4 as I don’t drink and eat both? Thank you
Denise Browning says
Hi Nisrine! You can replace bananas with apples or pears. They have similar amount of carbs and calories. As for milk, you may eat Greek yogurt or a plant-based milk isntead.
Lisa says
Hi,
What are the serving sizes for each meal? How much soup, fruit, Vegetables, Chicken, Beef?
Thank You
Denise Browning says
Fruits and veggies as well as the meats recommended on their days should be eaten 2-3 times a day. Choose the small-size fruits and preferrably low carb vegetables and of course, lean meats (the portion is 2 oz, two to three times a day). This is a low calorie-diet.
