Yes.. I did.. I didn't get a lot of gas.. but any more gas is too much..\n\nYes it worked.. I lost 12 lbs the first week.. the other 4 the next.. quit diet... metobolism was sped up too much.. and I lost lots of muscle, felt weak, lost an additional 5 lbs in another week.. after being off diet.. ended up a grand total of 10 lbs underweight before the lbs quit sluffing off, and very sick, took forever to regain strength and muscle and an equalized metabolism again.. every one thought I had anorexia.. and told me to eat.. I was eating by the truck loads, and I couldn't gain it back fast enough.. but yes the weight stayed off for about 1 year and a half.. then I started staying at my weight i should have been at.. plus about 4 lbs to make me feel healthier

I've had friends use it and it seems to have worked for them.  They also tried to eat more healthy, so it was a good combination.

The answer is yes.\n\nFood:\nDark Green Veggies! \nLike Popeye, eat spinach, or spinach leaf salads, broccoli, asparagus- find something you like. Eat these with every meal.\n\nFruits are good, but sugary. Try to experiment with them to make a low fat/sugar desert.\n\nMeat is important, but stay away from fatty stuff. Lean steaks are good, like sirloin. Stay away from Rib-eye, and even ground beef. Eat lots of Chicken for meat. White meat, of course. No pork. Don't exclude meat from your diet.\n\nEat your bread, just don't go crazy with it.\n\nDon't use mayo or too much milk or cheese, those kinds of things add too much fat. Don't eat too much. Eat whatever looks like a decent portion according to things like the food pyramid or daily diet values and go hungry if you have to.\n\nRun. Run more and more every day. Start by jogging. Then run. Running does everything. EVERYTHING!\nAnd do push-ups and Sit-Ups. Every morning. Do more every day. Make it hard on yourself. Do it when you feel weak, do it when you feel strong. Do more and more or else it stops working.\n\nYou'll lose weight, or else you'll get stronger and gain weight but improve your shape.

Not sure if it works yet, but I am trying it. I started today. I bought a 14 day plan and menu on ebay for cheap. It looks fairly easy to stick to compared to other diets I've tried. send me an email\n\nchuckehall2000@yahoo.com

avoid cabbage and soy. natural whole foods are best, especially ones that contain iodine.

I always go for the salad first.  It probably has way less carbs than the soup anyways.  That way, you fill up on salad and don't get to eat too much of that soup.

I have struggled with my weight all my life and the only way I can keep the weight off is Weight Watchers.  I absolutely love it.  WW is not just a crash diet, it is a lifestyle change that you can live with.  The meetings help the most.  Hearing other people's struggles and then their triumphs is uplifting.  I would definitely give it a try.  You can go and sit in on a meeting and then decide to join.  It is one of the best decisions I have ever made.  Good Luck, hope you give it a try.\nGrad of 06

I have started eating at least a half a cup of raw broccoli a day.  It really helps with daily eliminations.

I tried it, didn't find that it worked one bit.  I ended up returning it for a refund.  Even though it tasted great, it made me sick to my stomach, and I didn't lose any weight at all.  In my opinion it's a scam.

Complex and contingent on the type of cancer.  NCI.gov and FDA.gov have links to sites with information on just that.  The problem is, the more research that is done, the more the perspective changes.  For example, folic acid was thought to reduce the risk of heart disease in women but a recent study showed probably not, nor did aspirin.  With respect to cancer, eating only what God put on this earth without the preservatives and artificial substances, seems to be the best route.  Certainly the cabbage family, especially broccoli and the beta-kerotenes have been studied extensively as have the omega 3 fatty acids.  The list is extensive.  Basically when on chemotherapy, cold soft food works the best, if taking a platinum drug, lemon flavors help tolerate the metallic taste.  When on radiation a low residue diet without dairy products is best and when recovering from surgery, well, it depends on the type of surgery.  Most people don't get enough protein or iron in their diets and these are critical for cancer patients.

Never tried it before. But you're right, you'll burn calories and you won't be hungry. Please let me know if it works.

Honestly, Campbell soups aren't that good for you. They are pretty high in salt and...believe it or not...sugar, too. Same goes for any kind of canned soups. I know you probably like soups because they are quick and easy, but the best way to get good nutrition from soup AND loose weight is to make your own soup from scratch. You don't need to know much about cooking, so don't worry! Just grab a good soup recipe book (find them at libraries, bookstores, etc) and make your own soups! I do all the time, and they come out great and are very healthy. If soup making doesn't appeal to you, try making low-fat sandwiches and making big salads. And eat a bunch of veggies and fruit. It's the same old advise that it seems like everybody gives, but it's 100 percent true. Hope this helps!! Oh and by the way, you don't have to totally give up campbells if you love it. Just try to pick healthier foods for the most part. :)

I haven't tried the diet but for the past week I have been having one in the morning. It taste gross like baby formula and smells the same, but it keeps the hunger down. I have been exercising like crazy (for me) (running 7 miles a day, 2 in the morning, 5 at night) and eating healthier I have lost 4 quick pounds. I mainly use slimfast to stop my hunger cravings not because I think it burns away the fat or gives extra energy.

This is going to sound really old fashioned but it does work. \nI cannot take iron pills or supplements, let's just say they don't agree with me. The easiest way I found to boost iron intake without pills or eating greens or liver (yuk) is by using cast iron cookware. \n\nSounds crazy but it does work.
