The following article recommends a 7 day diet that I tried last year in which I lost 10 pounds. It is a pretty good diet and you don't miss any food or feel deprived like most fad diets. I ate 7 times a day. I had several family weddings to attend to last year,, and I am the big sister in the family so I didn't want to be standing beside my baby sister looking three times bigger than she was. I did only do it for a week and then went back to my regular balanced diet. One thing I did notice though was I had shrunk my stomach do to the fact I had smaller meals than I was used to and started to eat more often. It seemed to work. The hardest for me was to have cabbage soup for breakfast. Day one ,three and four I had fruit for breakfast but the other days it took some getting used to to have soup. It was already made and I just had to heat it up which before leaving for work which was a good time saver though.
I have read that this diet is so well known that hospitals use it as well. Doctors do recommend it, as long as it is only used as recommended.

Lose Weight Fast For A Special Occasion
Copyright 2005 Adam Waxler

If you have just a little weight to lose, and want to take
it off fast (say, so you can fit into those great pants for
your cousin's wedding), there are a number of diets that
you can use. Most of these wouldn't be recommended for
long-term weight loss, as they substantially restrict your
intake of some essential nutrients, so using them
habitually may not be healthy. But if you're normal diet is
healthy, and you just want a quick boost to drop 8-10
pounds quickly, or to kick off a new diet with a bang, the
Cabbage Soup Diet actually works.

The cabbage soup diet has been around for nearly 30 years.
It's based on the notion that your body actually uses more
calories to digest cabbage than the amount that it derives
from cabbage. It's a so-called 'negative calorie diet', and
includes many foods that, like cabbage, are high in fiber
and very low in calories.

The base of the cabbage soup diet is - what else? Cabbage
soup. There are several recipes for cabbage soup available.
Essentially, the soup is made with onions, peppers,
mushrooms, carrots, cabbage, celery and spices to taste.
You'll be eating the soup every day - as much of it as you
want.

In addition, there is a seven day routine of foods to
supplement the cabbage soup.

Day One: All the fruit you want (except bananas) along with
all the soup that you want. No caffeinated beverages or
sodas. Drink only water, tea and cranberry juice.

Day Two: Eat all the vegetables that you want, but avoid
dried beans, peas and corn. Eat veggies raw, fresh or
cooked. No fats, no sauces, no butter. At dinner, you may
have one baked potato with butter - and of course, all the
cabbage soup that you want!

Day Three: Eat all the fruits and veggies that you want
from day two and day three - but NO baked potato.

Day Four: Bananas and skim milk - yes, all the skim milk
you want, plus up to eight bananas, along with -- you
guessed it, all the cabbage soup you want.

Day Five: Eat ten to twenty ounces of beef (or skinless
chicken, or broiled fish). Drink at least 10 glasses of
water, and eat up to six fresh tomatoes. (if you substitute
for the beef today, you may not tomorrow)

Day Six: Eat all the beef, vegetables and cabbage soup that
you want. No baked potato. Lots of leafy green vegetables.

Day Seven: You can have all the unsweetened fruit juices,
brown rice, and vegetables that you want - and at least one
bowl of soup.

That's it. Remember - this diet is NOT recommended for long
term weight loss, or long term use. It doesn't contain
enough complex carbohydrates to be healthy for longer than
a few days. But if you just need a jump-start or a quick
fix, it's a good way to pick up the pace for a week.
