Cabbage Soup Diet - Getting Ready

So the Usana Reset is done but now I’m embarking on a new one…Cabbage Soup Diet. Read all about it here. I’ll keep updating for the next six days.
I’ve decided to follow up the Usana Reset with another cleanse/diet of sorts. I’m going to try the Cabbage Soup Diet. For those of you preferring salty versus sweet, this is the way to go. And any diet that has the word “unlimited” in it is the diet for me. Essentially, the diet’s main food is a big pot, no, make that vat, of cabbage soup, accompanied by various foods through the seven days.
T – 2 days
The cabbage soup diet isn’t something you just wake up and decide to do. No no no…you need to prepare for this one, and not just by putting a blender bottle in your work bag. So, on Saturday afternoon, we went to the Trout Lake Farmer’s Market to pick up some veggies and fruit for the 7-day diet ahead.
T – 1 day
So after days of abstaining while on Usana, I'm heading out to Hogshack to meet @BCBerrie, @Adewin, @pawspix for some meaty goodness! We ordered the Jurassic Platter, with Baby Back Ribs, St. Louis Ribs, Dino Ribs and two chicken legs, and FOUR sides! Although we only ate the Baby Back and the Dino ones, we were stuffed! Saved all Four sides, veggies, rice, mashed potatoes and coleslaw for another day!
Headed to Safeway afterwards to get the rest of the veggies required for the soup, so cabbage, onions, green onions, mushrooms, carrots and celery. Also remember to get a package of Lipton Onion Soup Mix. A big bottle of V8 and a can of whole tomatoes rounds out the soup. Dragged everything upstairs and chopped up everything up to bits and tossed into the pot. Three hours later, I will have soup!
Dinner tonight was another mess of meats - reminiscent of Landmark Hot Pot, but we tried a new place called Claypot. And it's All-You-Can-Eat. God help me!
