On the "new" cabbage soup diet you are allowed 8oz of skim milk per day or a yogurt

A lot of people have complained of being lighheaded the first few days, and bloated.  Just drink plenty of water that will help..all that fruit the first day

The new diet I did from a Margaret Danbrot  book is as follows:

Day 1 - Fruit and soup, c of milk or serving of ff, no-sugar yogurt
Day 2 - Veggies and soup, baked potato, c of milk or yogurt
Day 3 - Veggies and fruit, soup, milk or yogurt
Day 4 - Bananas, skim milk, can sub one serving of milk with yogurt, soup
Day 5 - Chicken or fish, soup, tomatoes and milk or yogurt
Day 6 - Chicken or fish, soup, veggies and milk or yogurt
Day 7 - Fruit, veggies, soup, milk or yogurt

The recipe is basically the same except it has you add 2 c of cooked rice since there is none on day 7.  I kept it separate and  on veggie days I made stiry fry and used a couple of T of rice in it instead of the soup.

Juice is a no-no but coffee, tea and water are allowed and artificial sweeteners are as well.  One T of non-fat or low-fat dressing is allowed daily as well.

Good luck.
