do the sacred heart diet.... you can supposedly loose 10-17 lbs in a week. you need some willpower though....
Sacred Heart Medical Diet
This 7-day eating plan can be used as often as you like. If
correctly followed, it will clean out your system of impurities and
give you a feeling of well-being. After only 7 days of this process,
you will begin to feel lighter by at least 10 pounds and possibly 17
pounds, and experience an abundance of energy.
SOUP:
1 or 2 cans of stewed tomatoes
3 plus large green onions
1 large can of beef broth (no fat)
1 pkg. Lipton Soup mix (chicken noodle)
1 bunch of celery
2 cans green beans
2 lbs. Carrots
2 Green Peppers
Season with salt, pepper curry, parsley, if desired, or bouillon,
hot or Worcestershire sauce. Cut veggies in small to medium
pieces. Cover with water. Boil fast for 10 minutes. Reduce to
simmer and continue to cook until veggies are tender.
This soup can be eaten anytime you are hungry during the week. Eat
as much as you want, whenever you want. This soup will not add
calories. The more you eat, the more you will lose. You may want
to fill a thermos in the morning if you will be away during the
day.
DRINKS:
Unsweetened juices
Tea (also herbal)
Coffee
Cranberry juice
Skim milk
Water, water, water
DAY ONE
Any fruit (except bananas). Cantaloupes and watermelon are lower
in calories than most other fruits. Eat only soup and fruit today.
DAY TWO
All vegetables. Eat until you are stuffed with fresh raw, cooked
or canned veggies. Try to eat green leafy veggies and stay away
from dry beans, peas or corn. Eat veggies along with the soup. At
dinnertime tonight reward yourself with a big baked potato and
butter. Don't eat any fruits through today.
DAY THREE
Eat all the soup, fruit and veggies you want. Do not have a baked
potato. If you have eaten as above for three days and not cheated,
you should find that you have lost 5-7 pounds.
DAY FOUR
Bananas and skim milk: Eat at least 3 bananas and drink as much
milk as you can today, along with the soup. Bananas are high in
calories and carbohydrates, as is the milk but on this particular
day, your body will need the potassium and carbs. Proteins and
calcium to lessen the cravings for sweets.
DAY FIVE
Beef and tomatoes: you may have 10 to 20 ounces of beef and a can
of tomatoes, or as many as 6 tomatoes on this day. Eat the soup at
least once today.
DAY SIX
Beef and veggies, eat to your heart's content of the beef and
veggies today. You can even have 2-3 steaks if you like with green
leafy veggies but no baked potato. Be sure to eat the soup at
least once today.
DAY SEVEN
Brown rice, unsweetened fruit juice and veggies, again, be sure to
stuff yourself and eat the soup. You can add cooked veggies to
your rice if you wish.
By the end of the 7th day, if you have not cheated on this diet,
you should have lost 10 to 17 pounds. If you have lost more than
17 pounds, stay off the diet for two days before resuming the diet
again.
This diet is fast. The secret lies within the principle that you
will burn more calories than you take in. It will flush your
system of impurities and give you a feeling of well-being. This
diet does not lend itself to drinking any alcoholic beverages at
any time. Because of the fat build-up in your system. Go off the
diet at least 14 hours before any intake of alcohol.
Due to the variety of digestive systems in individuals, this diet
will affect everyone differently. After day three, you will have
more energy than when you began, if you do not cheat. After being
on the diet for several days, you will find that your bowel
movements have changed. Eat a cup of bran or fiber. Although you
can have black coffee with this diet, you may find that you don't
need caffeine after the third day.
The basic fat burning soup can be eaten anytime you feel hungry
during the seven days. Eat as much as you wish. Remember the more
you eat, the more you will lose. You can eat broiled, boiled or
baked chicken instead of the beef. Absolutely no skin on the
chicken. If you prefer, you can substitute broiled fish for the
beef on only one of the beef days. You need the high protein in
the beef for the other days.
Continue on the diet as long as you wish and feel the difference
both mentally and physically.
DO NOT - DO NOT
No bread, alcohol, carbonated drinks (including diet drinks).
Remember, absolutely no fried foods.
DO - DO - DO - DO
Drink plenty - at least 6 to 8 glasses - of water a day, as well
as any combination of the following beverages: black coffee,
unsweetened fruit drinks, cranberry juice and skim milk.
This diet comes from the Sacred Heart Memorial Hospital that is
used for overweight heart patients in order to lose weight
rapidly, usually prior to surgery.
