‘Eat Your Heart Out’ Diet… aka Satan Diet

I could do day 5 for the rest of my life. Tomatoes are my #1 all time favourite food.

not sure i could do this as written. weight watchers yogurt prolly has artificial sweeteners (same as crystal lite) so i'd have to switch it up a bit. we'll see, it's pretty tempting, ten lbs in one week!! woah!

I was just blog stalking but I had to stop and read this post (you had me at "Eat your heart out", haha).
I've heard variations of this diet before, but they all seemed crazier than the rules you've set out here. I think I could definitely handle this for a week (though I'd be sad to say bye to my nightly bowl of ice cream).
Maybe I'll give this a go to kick off my "get into bikini shape" workout and health routine.
Thanks for the tip!

Hmm.. I'm always down to try a new diet. Any idea if there's an alternative to the tomatoes? (I'm not a fan) Also, do you use spices, oils etc to season your food?

I absolutely hate bananas do you have any suggestions for day 4 or possible alternatives?

My boyfriend and I started this today! Its lunch time and all we've had is FRUIT FRUIT FRUIT! Haha, but its going well so far! It is a little difficult though because we live on a college campus and we usually are stuck to eating what is offered. I'm hoping they'll have chicken on the day we need it! I have a few questions: I love bananas so I don't think day 4 will be too bad, but is that ALL you eat that day? Bananas and milk? It just doesn't seem like much. Also, IS coffee out? 🙂 I figured it is…but I just thought I'd make sure!

Thank you, thank you! This is easy and totally doable. Thank you! Now… I've gotta see if the hubby will do it with me!

Is it essential that I do day 7? I'm going to be traveling that day, and I don't think TSA will allow me to bring soup onto the planes, even if it is for a great cause. If I do need that soup, do you have any suggestions as to another day I could possibly skip out on?

Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU! I am amazed how how easy this has been. I am on day 4 and have lost a pound per day so far! If I lose 7lbs for the week I will be beyond thrilled. This is the best diet I have seen by far. I love it because I am not hungry, and I feel healthy! I have tried everything to lose weight and this is the only things that has really helped me! So thank you! Cheesy—-but this changed my life! 🙂

Oh and sorry, The comment above is from my hubby's account so I deleted it and posted it under my name! 🙂

I'm so excited! I have my whole family starting this on Friday.
So can we continue to do it week after week with the same results? Or should be take a break in between?

I am so going to do this! There is nothing on this diet that I won't eat! Thank you so much for sharing.

Try light vanilla soy or light chocolate soy. They are both creamy, delicious and better for you the cows milk. I rarely drink cows milk, I prefer the soy. Good luck.

Thank you, Amish Structures and Dawnia!! Good tips! I think I'll get the light chocolate soy since that sounds yummy and easy to drink! Are either of you doing this diet? I'm going on day 4 (bananas and milk) tomorrow…. lost 2 pounds as of this morning.

What about alcohol, specifically red wine? Any advice?

What about eggs or egg whites for the fowl and veggie days? I am assuming we need the protein for those days.

Can the fruit and veggies be frozen fruits?

I am starting this diet to day & I am very excited about it. In the last 30 days I have lost 20 pounds by doing other things but if I could do this diet for a few weeks & lose 10 pounds a week I would easily reach my weight loss goal. My only question is if I do this diet for a couple of weeks in a row will I lose 10 pounds each week or is there a plateau my body will reach? Thank you so much!!

On chicken and tomato day, do the tomatoes have to be fresh or can you dice them and toss them in a skillet with some seasoning to make a sauce for the chicken as long as you eat the amount required?

Thanks! One more question…I know you said no coffee but what about tea? Specifically green tea? Excited to start tomorrow 🙂

is it okay to use a sweet potato instead of a white potato? i like to bake them and eat them plain.

Thank you for answering all of these questions and making this so accessible. I am actually having so much fun challenging myself thus far! You're wonderful! 🙂

I am so sick of fruit and veggies I want to puke. I am on the second day and it is not easy. I have the worst headache which is weird because I never drink coffee or pop but I must be having a withdrawl from something. Hopefully the rest of the week goes a little easier.

There are a ton of different opinions about what are fruits and veggies… Things like avocados, peas, tomatoes, show up on both sides of that list. What source did you use to come up with your lists of fruits and veggies?
On day 2, are you having sweet potatoes plus a baked white potato – or just one type of potato only.

Thanks!

Someone tell me how to print this diet? Not computer literate.

Ok so can you do Soy Milk??? Instead of the regular milk… Milk and my tummy = not so good…. My tummy and soy milk = happy Michelle

Thank you, Michelle

This same diet is on my7daydiet.com – the soup is a little different though, no prepackaged soup mix. (I assume that is full of salt and bad for water retention)

for day 4 if im doing the weight watchers yogurt instead of milk how much should i eat? thanks in advance!

would it be alright to use chobani greek yogurt on day 4?

Is anyone else not having as much success as they hoped? I lost all my weight after Day 1, and the scaled hasn't moved since even though I've followed the diet pretty strictly. I'm starting Day 6 and am getting pretty discouraged. Any tips for people who can't get the scale to budge?

I finished day 7 yesterday & I lost 7 pounds total. But did not lose any weight after day 4. I feel like I pretty much starved. I was already losing a pound a day before I started this diet so I almost feel like I did it for nothing. I followed everything to the plan but did not lose anything further after day 4. On day 1 I lost 3 pounds.

ASHLEY HERE! I am sorry some of you aren't losing the total ten – but the smaller you are- its very natural not to lose much weight if you are already close to your bodys healthy weight. I wish you the best- I still think 7 pounds in a week is STELLAR!

Is Vegetable stock okay on vegetable days?

Anyone have suggestions for a banana substitution? I cannot have bananas and am on day 2 of the diet. I really want to stick with it. Maybe a different high potassium fruit?

One more question: Are nuts (almonds) ok for fowl day as a substitute protein. I don't really like meat at all and am trying to find some substitues for that.

Okay, I'm not at all convinced that this is healthy. Losing seven pounds in a week? Doesn't sound healthy at all.

I just left a long comment (accidently twice ) on your sister's blog. It was kind of long so I hate to re-type it now 🙂 But there was a problem when I first found this on Pinterest today…it was kind of weird. Then I just looked for the original source and found your blog…and your sister's (the designer of the diet poster) Thank you!

OK – I'm good to go with this! Sounds like a pretty safe cleanse to me! Day one – very loose bowels because of nothing but fruit! Yikes!

I've checked the FAQs and can't find the answer to this: Is it okay to take my regular vitamins during this time? I'mt thinking "yes" but wanted your opinion. Thanks!

on day two & day six is it okay to eat raddishes ? or are they a starchy veggie.?

Do you only eat bananas and milk/yogurt on day 4 or do you eat other fruits too? 🙂

Do you have any before/after pics to share of your results? Thanks!

I'm curious about a banana substitute also. Has anyone gotten an answer on this yet. I cannot eat bananas.

I'm starting this diet on Monday and am really excited!!! I just finished a round of the HCG diet.

For those that are dealing with headaches, I had the same effect the first week on HCG. I believe it's either caffeine, sugar, or a combination of them. Most people don't realize how addicting sugar is for our brains. During HCG I took medicine for the headaches, and I'm assuming that would work on this diet as well.

You said no to seltzer water because it has sodium…but you are salting your food? FYI…La Croix flavored sparkling water has no calories, no sugar or artificial sweeteners, and no sodium. I don't like sweet drinks so this stuff is perfect for me 🙂

Should you eat the basic 3 meals a day or 6 small ones? What do you go by?

I just started this yesterday and it is hard…not because I hate fruit or vegetables but because it is hard to break habits…licking the spoon of peantbutter after making lunch for my kids, saying no to the goldfish my toddler wants to feed me, not licking my finger after getting icing on it from making cupcakes. The real test will come on "banana day"…I hate bananas…the only day I dread. Otherwise I love the "menu" and eating as much raw as possible is something we try to do anyway. My problem is all the extra carbs I take in from the kids. Such an eye opener. Not sure I will lose 10 lbs but even half will do and this "menu" is something we will incorporate for life. Have at least 2 days a week with just fruits or vegetables or a mix of both.

I did this alone about 3 weeks ago and lost 9 lbs. (And I had iced coffee on about 3 of the days with about 2 pumps of sugar free syrup and a splash of skim milk. Didn't seem to change my progress much). My hubby was motivated by my results and we started again this week. Today is only day 4, and so far, my hubby has lost 8 lbs and I'm down another 4 or so. (He's got a lot more to lose than me so it comes off quickly.) Last time I did this solo, I ended up putting on a 1/2 lb between 6 days and 7 (plus the soup is kinda gross to eat all day) so we are going to skip day 7 this time around and go straight into South Beach Phase 1. That will seem like a treat compared to the restrictions on this cleanse. 🙂 I'm a little surprised I gained a little, but I did a heavy workout on day 6 so maybe it was muscle? Don't know…. Anyways, I've had a lot of friends ask me about this cleanse and they have begun it themselves. Thank you for posting this. Love the quick results! It's motivating to start a longer-term healthy eating plan afterwards when you see results like this right off the start!

Hi, Thanks for the tip on a great way to lose weight fast! I have been doing this detox with a friend.. this is our last day and I am already 11lb's down.. I have to add something PLEASE NOTE: The last day I was light headed and not feeling I could last on the soup alone, I went to the original source to see if it said anything and I'm afraid that you have adapted the plan too far. We ARE weak on the morning of the last day and need to up our blood sugars from fruit to give us energy! People please be sensible and listen to your body 🙂

I haven't read all of the comments but I did see that someone asked about a tomato substitute. I HATE tomatoes so I asked my nutritionist and he said to substitute them with clementines. I am starting on Friday so I will let you know how it goes!

I am VERY allergic to bananas, and I read that fruits like pears and mangoes are good substitutes for bananas. Any thoughts?..

Can pickles be eaten on the fruit or vegetable day?

This comment has been removed by the author.

hi! today is day 1 for me 🙂 i just had a silly and small question – can i chew sugar free gum?
email: alanafk@gmail.com

I'm planning on starting this Monday (6/8). found this blog on pinterest. So I have 2 questions;

1) when you ate the soup everyday did you still lose 10+ lbs?

2) where did you lose your weight? I really wanna lose it in my tummy and legs but not so much my bosom or behind ;).

I think my results should be similar to yours cause we are the same height. My goal this summer is to lose 20 so hopefully this will get me on my way! 🙂 Thanks!

I'm starting this tomorrow! Wish me luck!!

Hello,

I was wondering if you had a "menu" of everything you can eat on each day. Im not one to figure out all the options for each day so if you had some sort of list that would be awesome! Let me know. My email is
superior4chris@aol.com
Thanks!!
Christina : )

For veggie days, can we eat mushrooms or tofu?

This comment has been removed by the author.

Have you tried juicing the fruits or veggies instead of eating them? Or doing a combo of both? I find that I don't really like to "eat" anything in the morning and much prefer drinking my breakfast…

I am finishing up day 4 and it is an amazing detox! My mood is better and I have almost no cravings! I wanted to suggest something for the soup. After cooking it (and letting it cool a bit) I put mine through a blender making it more of a consistency of creamy tomato soup…I can't stomach chunky veggies like cabbage! I really enjoy it this way….and thought I'd suggest this method for those who are having trouble with it.
I'd love to see a menu of what you eat- just to get a better picture and ideas of 'recipes'.

For the Fruit and Veggie days, do you think you could drink Naked Juices since they are all natural?

I started this "diet" on june 21 and i don't know if it's because i started eating more fruits and veggies a few months ago, but it's been pretty easy. i really don't like bananas and i ended up being able to eat FIVE and i actually started craving them now. so weird! but each day i looked forward to the next day because i wanted some milk that one day and meat today. i lost 3 the first day, 2 the second, 1 the next and .5 last night. So i have been consistently seeing it go down! i definately wanted to do this to detox b/c I plan on eating more clean and even more healthy than i'm attempting now. I say if you have doubts, just try it. get creative with the foods. I know i had too. The fruits were easy. I LOVE love fruits, but the tomatoe and protein day, that is today and that is tough!

I've noticed that a lot of people are posting about hating bananas.If it's just the texture that's the problem, I might have a solution – you can take bananas, peel and slice them, and then freeze them. After they're frozen, just put some in a food processor and blend — it creates a creamy ice cream like mix that's delicious. It does still taste like banana though, since that's all that's in it. 😉

hi, i was noticing alot of people asking about what to sub for bananas that also have high potassium: here is a short list of those foods

•Tomatoes and tomato products, such as tomato juice, tomato soup, and tomato sauce
•Nuts and seeds
•Raisins, prunes, and other dried fruits
•Potatoes
•Legumes, including peas, lima beans, baked beans, pinto beans, soybeans, and lentils
•Plantains
•Spinach
•Papayas
•Milk and many dairy products, including milk shakes, cheese, and yogurt
•Brussels sprouts
•Orange juice
•Broccoli
•Oranges
•Melons
•Squash and other deep yellow vegetables

i hope this helps 🙂

One other question to follow my previous post! What about coconut water – I live for this stuff is this allowed during the diet to stay hydrated or strictly water?

Thanks,
Heather

I know you said no seltzer but what if it is sodium free seltzer?

I'm on Day 2 and was SHOCKED to see a 6.8 lb. loss this morning since I weighed in on the morning of Day 1! Surely gave me the motivation to continue after STARVING all day (and getting sick of sweet things!).

P.S. I drank coffee (black) and Diet Coke…just not willing to deal with the caffeine withdrawal headache :).

I'm a vegetarian and I'm just doing egg whites instead of the chicken/turkey and 'm thinking veggie broth instead of beef flavoring.

I am doing this "diet" starting tomorrow. I do not eat too bad (no fast food, etc.), but I do consume refined sugars and occasionally processed foods. I am so excited to see how this works, seems pretty easy beside the day of bananas and milk. I'll let you know my results!

I'm just curious if the weight will stay off or if I will just gain it all back, once I switch back to my normal eating. Has everyone had success keeping the weight off?

The only crystal light I could find were those little packets that you pour into a water bottle or something and they each have 5 calories! Would that be okay? Or should I just stick with water all the time. Sometimes I just need something that has taste! Oh and could you possibly give me some meal ideas?

I'm going to try this this week. pretty excited about it. I just wanted to mention (I read the questions you addressed above) the person who's getting a pretty bad headache while doing the diet is most likely having serious sugar withdraws (as I'm sure I will).

I did this and lost 11.6 lbs in 7 days! The only things I did different were eating Yoplait Lite yogurt (I don't like milk and you can't find WW yogurt here) and I did drink iced tea sweetened with Stevia (I LOVE my iced tea and having it just seemed to help me make it through). I took 2 days off and started it over again today. The problem that I find is that I just don't even want to eat (which I know isn't good) … but I'm motivated by my results so I keep on going (I'm leaving for a trip and wanted to get rid of a few lbs. before I leave). By the end of week 1 my jeans were looser and I could wear several shirts that I hadn't been able to wear in quite some time so that was motivating. I really struggle with days 5 & 6 because I don't love meat but I survived. Ready to see what the second round does. Good luck to everyone doing it!!!!

Can I use organic beef broth instead of Lipton beefy onion mix? Also, if I choose to do soup daily, is it unlimited or just 1 bowl? Xtinamckee@yahoo.com

i only lost three pounds and i followed the diet strictly. i'm so disappointed. but i guess it's because i'm already at a really healthy weight. oh well. guess i'll just have to stick with time and kick ass exercise

I'm on day five and I was wondering if the tomatoes can be the small tomatoes found in salads or if they need to be the large ones.

Can you eat tomatoes on the fruit day since they are technically a fruit or is that considered a veggie on this diet? Please email me at amycrotinger@gmail.com Thanks!

Hey Ashley! My boyfriend and I are starting this diet Monday.

I think we can do it! We are curious to see what the results will be. I think day 4 is the only day I will dread (I hate milk and bananas, but I will do it!)

The only thing I have to change is the soup :/ I can't eat cooked or raw onions, they make me sick. I don't know why, since I can do onion flavoring, or dehydrated onions. I will have to find something else. But the rest of the diet I am going to try to follow to a T! I know you probably don't have time, but if you want to check out my blog at http://likeashleyagain.blogspot.com/ then you could let me know if I am doing something wrong. I am going to post what we eat each day and how it is going. Again I understand you are busy, but if you get the chance to check on me, I would appreciate it lol 🙂

I know life is busy for any mom, myself being one, but I wish you would post something about your response time, when you ask that others leave their emails with questions. I assumed you just weren't online, but I see that you made a post just yesterday, yet have not responded to me, or updated FAQ's. Like I said, I understand you are busy, and might not check all the comments on such a popular post, but I wish I had known that it could be so long, so I wouldn't of been checking my email so often looking for an answer.

I was able to keep it off for a year with continued healthy eating

CONGRATS EMMA!

That is a great idea and something my cousin suggested and loved!

the closer you stick to the plan, the better the results will be. but feel free to try it and see if it works! i dont know for sure.

No, just eat when you are hungry. The last day is JUST soup.

I haven't tried it, I am not sure…

http://www.healthaliciousness.com/articles/high-potassium-fruits.php

ya, no cheese or dairy. sorry! i hope you have better luck the 2nd time around.

great info, thanks! i will try that.

thanks for sharing! great ideas!

no, keep it raw

good to hear!!!

Yes, do not do this while nursing.

they should be ok!

yes, its healthy- you will not lose as much though 🙂 you will feel great!

how did it go?

please only weigh yourself first thing in the morning, and you should see results by the end of the week.

if you continue healthy eating it stays off.

yes thats fine !

yes that should be ok

its saracasm 🙂

I actually think no, I felt too weak to run during that week.

the bigger the better, just so you feel fuller. but small ones are ok too.

No, just wait till the tomato day!

you can take the onions out? I am not sure, just give it a try! i hope it works well for you! this is a good list for banana subs http://www.healthaliciousness.com/articles/high-potassium-fruits.php

This month has been insane for us as a family, I am sorry its taken me so long to respond. I got all caught up today, and enabled this reply comment form so I can do it from my phone. Thanks for your questions and good luck!

I know that on day 2 you can put butter on your potato… can you butter on other veggies too, or should it be restricted to the potato only?

Hi
I am on week 2 of the 7 day diet. Lost 10 lbs week 1. The only day I was really hungry was banana and yogurt day, I only ate 4 of each though.
Thanks for the info

I started this today and it is going well so far! I went and got a watermelon and a cantaloupe and just plan on continuously eating them the whole rest of the day. Tomorrow will be cucumber salad (just vinegar should be fine, right?) and spaghetti squash for dinner. I'm hoping this works and I can lose just enough to NOT look like a sausage stuffed into a dress for a wedding I have in 2 weeks.
One question though… I've been looking everywhere for Weight Watchers yogurt and I can't find it. But there are TONS of other kinds. I know you said WW is best, but is there something close to that? I saw in the FAQs not Yoplait light… but what about Activia or something like that?
Thanks!

I saw people asking about an alternative to the milk on day 4, I am a pescatarian (a vegetarian who eats some seafood) so I do not drink milk however I do drink Flaxmilk. It has as much calcium as calcium as whole milk (30%) it is only 50 calories with 7 grams of sugar. It tastes like a little bit sweeter milk. It is lactose and dairy free as well as gluten and soy free. You can get it at Costco for sure. Hope that helps some people!

sounds fine to me!and the soup is unlimited

potato only

ya thats a great substitute!

What got me through: Sliced strawberries with a drizzle of no calorie vanilla coffee syrup. Spaghetti squash tossed with sundried tomatoes, olives (only 2 diced very fine), and fresh herbs. DIY salad dressing made of pureed tomatoes and red wine vinegar with a pinch of splenda. Bananas drizzled in no calorie caramel coffee syrup. Sliced tomatoes soaked in bsalmic vinegar. Turkey burger cooked with fennel and sage (to get a sausage flavor). Homemade sauerkraut with mustard (I know, it's kinda strange). Subbing the onion soup mix for some beef boullion and pureeing the finished soup in the blender. I was 40 lbs. over weight, but I lost 8 on this diet. Moving on to a no/low carb diet to lose more.
Thanks for sharing this diet with me!

Were you able to keep the first 11 lbs. off?

I know you have stated that this diet shouldn't be followed by someone who is nursing BUT do you know if someone who is actively trying to get pregnant can follow it? I ask because there is always that uncertainty of being pregnant without realizing it for at least two weeks. I am trying to do this but also know that it would better my chances if I lost 10lbs so this diet sounds absolutely perfect if I can follow it. Please let me know if you get a chance at rosasanchez@aol.com

Thank you so much for this diet! I am on the beginning of day four and I feel healthy and satisfied. Although.. I did follow the diet on the my7daydiet website more closely than this because I believe this one is a little too strict. I also exercise every morning and take my daily vitamins. I would say so far that the fruit day was the most difficult. Then on day three I was feeling very lethargic and miserable and by the end of the day I was bloated from all of the vegetables. I never weighed myself but now on day four I am finally seeing results in a slimmer stomach. I believe that this day will go smoothly for me because I love bananas and milk. I'm only worried if I will have enough energy for the full day seven mile hike meeting I have tomorrow :/ Any idea on how I can make hiking snacks out of chicken and tomatos?

Hi Ashley,
I found this via Pinterest and had heard of the diet before. My husband and I are mid-way through day 2 and doing okay. Of course we are hungry often, but we are eating a little of the soup everyday. Also, on the fruit day (and will do for day 3 also) we made smoothies using frozen fruit and some blueberry "juice" I had from reconstituting some dried blueberries last week. I assume one could use coconut water as well as its very beneficial and comes from fruit. Also, we are going to do full fat greek yogurt on day 4 because we eat whole foods and weight watcher's or yoplait yogurts would not fit into that category. We don't buy anything reduced fat either because our bodies need these fats from good sources. Looking forward to seeing our results with these few modifications 🙂

Hi Ashley! I am looking forward to doing this because my eating has gotten out of control. I will do this and then go back to Weight Watchers after I am done. I assume that is a good follow up. I have had great success with WW in the past. Anyway, I was wondering about replacing Skim Milk with 1%. Would that be a bad idea? Thanks.

by the way im allergic to tomatoes so should i just leave them out or should i try to substitute something? what should i substitute? thanks!

Hi Ashley! I started this diet on Monday this week and am now on my third day. I have followed it to your exact guidelines except for not eating a potato yesterday. However, when I got on the scale this morning I had gained a little. Is this normal? Any ideas why this could be? I'm so excited about this diet cause I LOVE everything that's in it but that kind of discouraged me…

After reading all of these questions/answers, it seems to good to be true. Give us the nitty gritty details, I feel like we are being left out of some important well-being information. I'm dying for more information before I start this thing. How EXACTLY did you feel during each day? Were you tired? Did you not have enough energy to work out? Did you get so hungry that you felt like you constantly had to eat? What about sleeping? Did you keep a regular sleeping schedule? And getting into the REAL nitty gritty details: Pooping… how did that go??? I always get headaches when I don't eat enough so I am very concerned with the first 2 days. I also don't want to be stuck at work when my body is cleansing itself out…

I am on day one, and have to say it was not all that bad. I am a coffee drinker, so I tried green tea instead. I made the soup tonight and really don't mind it. Hoping this works as a great cleanse!

So, at one point in the FAQ you mentioned that you would have tomatoes (as a sauce) on veggie day, but another question you say tomatoes ONLY on tomato day. Which is it? Can you have tomatoes on veggie day, or only on tomato day? I'm on day four (this is the second time I've done it) and I would have loved to put some fresh salsa on my taco salad on veggie day, but didn't since I thought I couldn't have it…

Also I was wondering if seaweed was appropriate for day 2? I do love my seaweed salads

I think that would be fine!

I would try to find a yogurt with the lowest possible sugars… I will have to go check it out! I am sorry to hear they discontinued it!

The closer you stick to the original plan the better the results- so I would just stick to regular tomatoes.

My husband and I are on day 5 of the diet, and he has lost 10 lbs. already! I've lost 6, not too shabby! I want to blog about my experience with the diet and what we ate, but I'm a new blogger and not sure on all the netiquette. Would it be okay for me to link to your blog and/or post the graphic (both with credit, of course!). You can email me at whereismyhelmetblog@gmail.com. THANKS!!!

hmm I don't see how coffee would have canceled out the diet. Caffeine boosts up your metabolism,unless she used a bunch of sugar in her coffee.

What happens if you hate bananas?
Can they be in a smoothie?
Thanks

Yes almond milk ive read was ok….

Where can I find the FAQ's?

Soy milk is terrible for you. Raw cow's milk is much better, but if you'd rather do a milk alternative I'd highly suggest coconut, hemp, or almond.

Started today with my husband. Doing pretty well. Cheated so little with a handful of plantain chips because I couldn't take sweet and soft anymore. My husband and I are amazed at how excited we are for vegetable day… More variety. I am curious if you have any recommendations about how to cook the meat on the fowl days. I'm excited to do this.

I'm on day 4! 2 questions that I haven't seen answered- is the soup necessary? And can you have avocados?

I can't seem to find the FAQ's you mentioned in a comment up above. Can you direct me to them? (kristinaevertsen@gmail.com). I'm doing this diet but would like some questions answered first, and I'm sure you've addressed them before. Thanks 🙂

Is there anyone to substitute something for the tomatoes? I only like them when they are drizzled in olive oil and chopped up on a nice piece of bread. Any advice for that day?

Anybody still on here wondering if it has to be fresh fruit or can I use can to?
