7-DAY DIET WEIGHT LOSS SOUP (WONDER SOUP)

I’m going to Disneyland next week and decided that I didn’t want to take my muffin top with me, especially since I have this cute form-fitting shirt that I want to wear so bad…. WITHOUT SPANX!!
When I need to lose my gut or 10 pounds quickly I turn to three diets that never lets me down; my green monster smoothie diet, The 10 Day Green Smoothie Cleanse and my newest love, the 7-day cabbage soup diet!! No matter what diet you’re on, this flavorful wonder soup is perfect for a quick snack or even makes for an easy meal that will leave you feeling full. This soup is a little out of character compared to the recipes I usually post, seeing as how it doesn’t include two cups of sugar or a pound of cream cheese, but that’s the whole point. Because, you see, I have a wonderful job (this little food blog) where I get to spend my days making tasty recipes… and I know they’re tasty because I eat them.

½ head of cabbage, chopped

1 cup celery, diced
