After the soup diet

by Jamie

Hi,
I am on day 3 and am trying to be proactive and prepare for the next diet when the week is over, as to not gain all this back. What are the best suggestions for coming off the diet and jumping onto another? Is low carb (Atkins) ok?
Thanks,
Jamie

Dear Jamie,
being proactive is a great approach.
There is no single best longterm weight loss approach, because this depends on your preferences.

If you love carbs like pasta then Atkins will be hard and you should prefer a low fat diet afterwards. If you love meat/proteins then a protein based approach makes sense.

The more you inform yourself in advance the better. The following page is a good start: weight loss programs

One recommendation I can give to you (it is cheap and easy:)) is to keep the cabbage soup at hand also after the csd and use the soup as a starter before your regular lunch/dinner. With this strategy you may lose even more pounds in the long run.

All the best,
Gabriela
