Cabbage Soup Diet Recipe?

Anybody have this?
The jeans are feeling a little snug. Have to get into the dress suits for a series of meetings and hearings downtown. Ooooooo. Not good.
Gotta drop a few of the pounds that I enjoyed putting on thanks to the wonderful foods I've been cooking from the ideas and recipes on CH.

Anybody remember this Cabbage Soup? A good vat of this on hand will save me time. Something to grab in hurry that's healthy, tasty and not too full of calories.
Tnx.
