Sacred Heart Diet Soup

Pammy

I am on day 6, I started it on Monday at 203.5 lbs. I only cheated by eating 3 crackers wednesday night, maybe because I skipped my baked pototo on tuesday night, was not home to have it and decided to just eat the soup before I left work so I wouldn't make bad choices. It worked. I was full. On Friday I weighed 198, so 5.5lbs off so far and already feel better. Today I made my 2nd batch of soup and used my own fat skimmed off broth from cooking the beef. I put some broccoli in it, which I think should be Ok, I also just used a regular onion. I plan on sticking with it and to me it is easier to follow because I don't have to plan my meals and I feel I am getting the vegetables, fruit and protein needed. I also take a fiber supplement every morning with my daily vitamins. For those of you that are not losing, get your thyroid checked out, I had to go on medication as mine was not working so good at age 50 when most women start their menopause. It really makes a diffence in your system. Have fun. I am hoping to be as successful as others that I have read. My downfall is that I like a beer every now and then, I am a social butterfly. Just have to lose the weight first and then maintain. This plan is teaching me how to eat healthier.

I have been doing this diet about ten days. I am super sick of the soup and starting to hate carrots but I can tell that I have lost weight and am hoping to start a regular exercise plan to help boost the results. I am hoping to lose 60 pounds. My mother-in-law recommended this diet and she lost 50 pounds so hoping it works for me too.

My husband and I have been on the Sacred Heart Diet foe About 5 weeks already, My Husband has lost 30 lbs. and I have lost 28 lbs.
I strongly recomend the diet, if you think about it you already eat these things. You're just doing it in sequence now!

Hey everyone i've read many of the reviews for this diet many positive. Today is my first day starting the diet i've seemed to have may through the day thus far without a hunger headache so it seems to me that this new diet just may work. I'm really hoping for more initiative as far as weight loss to go along with my weight watchers diet plan as well. to lose weight is always great. I'm hoping to lose the 10 lbs or so everyone's talked about or even more this week. i hope it goes well today I am 249 I've only lost 7lbs in the last 2 months on weight watchers my goal is to at least make it to 190. i hope it works I'll KIT

I like this diet. I do find it easier to follow if I do it with some one else so we can be each others support. This time( i have done this diet before) we are a group of 4 people. This is day 2 for us and so far I have lost 5 pounds and 1 of the others has lost 4 pounds. This is the forth time I have done this diet with results ranging from 11 to 17 pounds in 7 days. I say good luck to all that tries it. make sure you really want to do it before you start.

Today is my 6th day. Never feeling hunger, I'm sick of eating the soup,though. It is a nice diet, always feel energetic . My clothes shows I lost weight but I'll check my weight at the end. My friend started at the same time and lost 10 pounds when he was on 3rd day. Good luck.No cheating on diet menu and do exercise.

I've reviewed the recipe. As a nutritionist/certified personal trainer, I see problems. Lipton Soup Mix is high in sodium and contains sugar.Also, its artificial nature and added chemicals makes it a questionable basis for a healthful 'diet plan' foundation. If you can't pronounce it, you really should not eat it. (Read the label and see for yourself.) Also, canned green beans typically contain excessive sodium and are of diminished nutritional value due to the canning process. You'd be better served by substituting chickpeas/ navy/black/cannolini/pinto beans, which do have protein and significant nutritients.Finally, I surmise that the curry, hot sauce, and pepper are meant to produce a 'thermogenic' response, which is a hypothetical and temporary process wherein the body's metabolism is 'speeded up' by consuming certain 'heat-producing' type foods. The general consensus amongst health professionals is that there may be a temporary effect, but it is short-lived and essentially useless for overall weight loss. In summary, you may INITIALLY lose weight by strictly adhering to this diet, but as many reviews support, you will regain that (mainly) water/muscle weight quickly, plus more, once you begin to eat as you once did. Please be cautious about undertaking ANY 'quick weight loss' program that is apart from what really works. You've probably heard this again and again, but it is reality: balanced, proper portions of wholesome, minimally-processed meals/snacks, a mind toward the correct calories, and EXERCISE, which can be simply more movement (at least initially) are the tenets of permanent weight loss and weight maintenance. Good luck, and GOD bless.

question... Do you think I could lose more weight just eating the soup alone?

Okay - so i did the diet in the summer and i lost 8 pounds on it. I thought it was amazing.



But have gained ALOT of weight being back at school, so i am doing it again to kick start my weight loss ( i am 147 - want to be back to normal at 127)... i am now on day 5, and i haven't lost ANYTHING!

I haven't been cheating at all ! I have been so so SO good! I don't know what is wrong!

Two things that it might be:

#1 i am also right now doing an herbal detox... do you think it could be interfering? or maybe making me retain water?

#2 I find on this diet i don't have much energy to work out ... well i don't have much energy at all... so i haven't been doing much (exercise wise) - so im going to go to hot yoga today...



what do you think??



I am so incredibly frustrated!

I started this diet on August 4th. As of today, Dec. 20th I have lost 60 lbs. I went to see my Doctor after dieting 2 months. He is pleased - blood pressure and cholesterol are good, however he suggested that I add more protein to my diet. I now add chicken to my soup at supper time.

Well, this is day 1 and I am very hungry! I love the soup, but being an overeater with a sweet tooth I am not gettng the full feeling I like. I am sssooooo looking forward to the baked potatoe tomorrow night! My starting weight is 232, my goal weight is 155 so if this proves itself to be fruitful I will break every eight days and start over on the ninth!

On Day 4 I was praising the maker of this diet for including bananas! I really needed something more satisfying in my system. I had soup in the morning... three bananas throughout the day when i was feeling hungry and mucho soup at night (because I was writing a paper for 8 straight hours, I felt starving). I did power yoga for an hour.
Today is Day 5 and I was able to have some beef! Yay, right? Not so... Because the beef that I bought was 85% fat free, there were those 15% persky percent of fat that made me feel a bit sick because I have not been eating ANYTHING fatty for a while! I added ground beef to the soup and it tasted it great, but now i wish I ate less of it... seeing fat circles on the surface of the soup made additionally sick. Tonight when I come home I will eat 3 tomatoes with peppers and salt. No exercise, just lots of mental activity. Cannot wait to weight myself on Sunday!

Day 2 was not tough at all! I did NOT feel hungry although was looking foward to Day 5's meat :) I had a medium head of cauliflower (boiled and then boiled some more IN the soup while I was heating up the soup) and some soup. I DID have more energy and i was drinking lots of H2O :)
Day 3 went without hunger pangs even though I ate less. I had only two medium bowls of soup and 6 brussel sprouts (they were actually really good as long as they are not overcooked - about 5-6 mins boiling)! I further ate a whole personal size watermelon and the other half of pineapple... That's all I needed!

Just started it today. Weight 140. I was starving, could not find time to eat today at all, and only got to eat a bowl of soup, half a pineapple, and about to start on an apple now (it's evening). I have to say that the soup is absolutely delicious! I can see no problem at all with eating it all week :) I made it very spicy... No exercise today. ONLY drinking water! A little sad about no fruit tomorrow, but I guess I will have to eat brussel sprouts, etc. Ew! Definitely cannot see how I will allegedly lose 5-7 pounds by the end of Day 3. We'll see!
