Alcohol and Diet
by Gina
(California)
Can I have a glass of wine or two on the fruit days? Or what about a shot of whiskey? I like to have a cocktail at the end of the day. Is there a cabbage diet cocktail?
No alcolol is allowed on the cabbage soup diet. If you cheat with alcohol you will jeopardize your weight loss as the problem with alcoholic beverages is threefold:
First, alcohol almost always leads to overeating and you will set the stage for binge eating. At only two drinks, your body craves for more satisfying type of food, and yet even more calories - a hidden diet disaster.
Second, alcohol almost doubles the calorie content of any type of soda, juice or mixer.
Third, an alcohol drink usually leads to more drinks...

Can i have Crystal light or Diet Soda? (by Ana - West Palm Beach)
1 glass of crystal light or Diet Soda per day might be ok when on cabbage soup diet, but the diet week works much easier without and also the purifying effect works better.
We are convinced that a cabbage soup diet week with too much light beer or diet soda might be very, very hard to stick to, as you’ll feel pangs of hunger.
A better option is cranberry juice. It has a very low sugar content and, it's usually too sour to consume it in high quantities.
