Chicken Recipes Weight ChartGM Diet GM Diet OverviewWhat is GM
DietGM diet is a weight loss management plan developed by the
General Motors Corporation to help keep their employees stay in
shape. This diet system involves the consumption of specific foods
per day, in contrast to weekly schedules like that of Atkins and
South Beach diets. What started as an in-house program for
individuals within the General Motors Corporation today has become
a worldwide phenomenon. The GM diet plan has grown to be a popular
diet plan over time has caught on and today has become very popular
with people looking for a diet plan that works.The GM diet and its
unique diet plan help your to reduce close to 10-17 lbs in 7 days.
Reducing weight is the primary goal, additionally with reduced
weight comes the added benefit of feeling good, looking good all
translating to a great experience. Not only does it improve the
mental state and attitude of the person following the diet course,
it also help you to cleanse and detoxify your body. Infact quite a
few people follow the diet once every 6 months to cleanse and
detoxify primarily rather that weight loss.Does the GM Diet
Work?While it has been a very popular diet plan over the years,
there are still some questions about the effectiveness of the GM
diet. According to recent studies, this diet plan is indeed
effective in reducing excess pounds at a fast rate. While normal
weight loss strategies induce at the most of 1 pound per week lost,
the GM diet can help get rid of up to 10 lbs each week by simply
following its food intake regimen.At the same time however, this
diet plan may prove to be overwhelming to first time users, as it
involves radical change of diet intake that consists mainly of raw
fruits and vegetables and reduced meat servings.The effectiveness
of the GM diet should also be supplemented by a regular exercise
routine, as according to nutrition experts, the diet alone would
leave the individual tired and weak. Through routine exercise of up
to 10 minutes each day, the bodys metabolism would be sped up and
be able to keep up with the diet requirements. Followers of this
diet plan would also benefit from regular exercise as they get to
enjoy normal energy levels and use the pounds they shed in more
productive activities.How to Prepare for the GM DietTo those who
are planning to follow the GM diet as their weight loss management
regimen, they should be able to withstand excess sweating,
occasional feeling of hunger, and momentary weakness, as these are
among the common side effects during the first days of the diet
routine.One way to prepare for the GM diet is by staying hydrated.
That is, regular water intake should be observed, at 8-10 glasses
each day. This is because once the body welcomes the effects of GM
diet it would require extra water for energy and metabolism. Those
who instantly follow the diet system may suffer from incessant
muscle pain and weakness, increased body heat, and malaise, and all
of these could only be regulated by adequate amounts of water in
the body.Avoiding alcohol intake should also be observed when
preparing for the GM diet. This is because alcohol prevents the
effects of the diet from taking place, and followers would only end
up stumped with their current weight even after a week of weight
loss management. Alcohol also triggers water retention, which
prevents individuals from getting rid of the excess fluids from
their systems.Weight Loss Objectives and GoalsThe primary reason
for the development of GM diet is to help middle-aged employees of
the General Motors Corporation to slim down and enjoy better health
as they are only a few years to retirement. Through this diet plan
followers were expected to get rid of the unnecessary pounds they
possess, as this triggers various health risks that may interfere
with their work at the company and at the same time prevent them
from enjoying retirement.Those however, who are planning to follow
the GM diet plan should have the following objectives in mind: Shed
off the extra pounds in order to achieve a proportional
weight-height body mass. Experience a cleaner body system through
routine detoxifying effects. Enjoy a better toned muscle through
supplemental exercise. Prevent the onset of obesity related
conditions such as hypertension, cardiovascular disease, and
arthritis.Followers of the GM diet should also observe strict yet
at the same time manageable weight loss goals in order not to
experience the diet plans side effects. These include:Following the
diet plan in daily schedules until desired weight is attained.Using
the diet plan in weekly intervals to maintain the achieved weight
combined with proper exercise to avoid bouts of fatigue and other
related health risks.Side Effects of GM DietBeing a fast-paced diet
plan, the GM diet has also become known for its side effects. Like
many other quick weight-loss regimens, followers of the GM diet may
experience conditions such as:Sudden muscle weakness. This is
because the muscle tissues are deprived of adequate amounts of
protein during the first few days of the diet plan. This condition
can be regulated once the system gets used to the nutrients
provided by the regimen.Incessant thirst and dehydration. Persons
following the GM diet also feel incessantly thirsty and even suffer
from dehydration as their fluids are used by the body to foster
metabolic processes. Followers are therefore advised to take more
water to prevent the onset of dehydration and experience a more
rejuvenated feeling.Headaches and malaise. Persons who are in their
first days of the GM diet may experience headaches and malaise, as
they are still on the process of getting used to the diet effects.
These tend to be psychosomatic, as followers are subject to
cravings which have to withstand in order to achieve their diet
goals.The side effects of GM diet are likewise similar to those of
other diet fads, but these can be effectively managed by Following
the regimen in a sequential and chronological manner. Skipping days
and cheating on the food intake may result not only to the
ineffectiveness of the diet, but as well as getting extra, unwanted
pounds. Supplementing the diet with proper exercise, rest and water
intake. By supporting the body system with regular exercise, water
intake and rest, the body would be able to adjust to the diet
settings at a faster manner and avoid routine side effects. It
would also lead to better effects and easier maintenance
procedures.Posted to: General Motors Diet212 CommentsCommon GM Diet
Questions, FAQs & TipsCommon GM Diet Questions, FAQs &
Tips1) Can I have tea or coffee?Herbal teas are fine. The only
sweetener allowed is stevia. I will never recommend coffee, however
if you do have it you can only have stevia in it.2) What days can
we eat the Wonder Soup?You can eat the Wonder Soup on any of the 7
days when you are hungry. Never go hungry on this diet. Folks tend
to have better results when they eat the soup.3) Can I drink
alcohol?No alcohol during this plan! There are no redeeming health
values to alcohol.4) Can I eat at places like Subway or eat
processed meats/foods?No, never actually. Subway foods like most
processed foods are full of toxic chemicals like dough conditioners
in the bread, sulfites, msg, nitrates and phosphates in the meats,
not to mention sugar and too much processed salt in the dressings.
Run away from foods like this. The point of the GM Diet is to cut
all processed foods.5) How many bananas can we eat on day 4?If you
have read that 8 bananas are allowed, you are not following our
plan but another plan. We do not help with other plans. This is the
original GM Diet here. The answer is 4 regular size bananas, or of
the 6 tiny bananas.6) On day 4, can I have buttermilk or yogurt in
stead of milk?Yes, yogurt or buttermilk is a fine replacement as
long as there is no sugar in the yogurt.7) Can we have chapati,
wheat, cereal, bread, etc?No, this is a gluten free diet. Wheat is
so bad for you. It has been genetically modified and over
processed. It causes weight gain and other health issues. If you
eat lots of wheat, you will likely not maintain your weight loss
after the diet.8) Can I have honey lemon water in the morning?No,
you cannot have honey in your water. There is nothing healthy about
this at all; you are essentially just drinking sugar water. You can
have as much lemon in your water as you like though.9) I am a
vegetarian, what do I do instead of meat?We have laid out two plans
for vegetarians. Here are the links. Keep in mind whenever you
replace meat, you need to make sure you have a little good fat in
that dish. Example would be: olive oil, coconut oil, butter or
ghee. Also if you have curd as a meat replacement, it will already
contain some good
fat.http://www.gmdietworks.com/general-motors-diet/gm-diet-vegetarian.htmlhttp://www.gmdietworks.com/general-motors-diet/gm-diet-indian-version.html10)
Can I have salt, pepper, or spices?Yes, you can have a normal
amount of salt. Never over do it. However since you are drinking
extra water on this plan, salt is very important. Even adding a
dash in your water can be important if you are using the
unprocessed form of salt. Sea salt or unprocessed salt is always
the best option for salt. Pepper, herbs and spices are allowed. Try
and enjoy your food.11) Will I gain the weight back after the GM
Diet?Most diets are going to fail if you plan on returning back to
an unhealthy lifestyle after the diet. Yes, you will likely gain
your weight back if you go back to a poor eating plan. If you want
to keep your weight off you must make a serious lifestyle change.
Many people have underlying health issues such as thyroid problems,
cortisol issues and so on. These health issues can hamper weight
loss and cause weight gain. In order to try and maintain a healthy
weight and lose more weight you must eat healthy!12) Can I have
dried fruits or nuts?No, you cannot have dried fruits or nuts on
this plan. Afterwards you can enjoy them in small quantities but
you do have to limit these as they are very concentrated sources of
food.13) What do I eat after the GM diet?This is a loaded question
really. Here is what we have found by study and experience. Whether
you are a meat eater, vegetarian or vegan, each meal must be
balanced.Eat 3 meals a day. Do not eat them all at once, spread
them out. Each meal should have a protein, a good carb and plenty
of vegetables. You can also have 2 to 3 servings of fruit a day. We
never recommend wheat or bread. We prefer gluten free and even
grain free. Whole foods are always best. Cut out processed foods
completely if at all possible.Good carbs/starches are white
potatoes, sweet potatoes, yams, squashes, white rice, taro root,
plantains and celery root.Also do not go fat free. You need good
fat like animal fats found in good grass fed meats, ghee, olive oil
and especially coconut oil.14) Can I do the GM Diet
continuously?No, this is meant to be a weight loss kick starter.
The GM Diet should not be a lifestyle. You can however do the diet
again but you must wait at least two weeks, but preferably one
month. In between that time eat healthy. Do not go back to your
original way of dieting or eating.Posted to: General Motors Diet,

I did the following weight loss diet program and it worked
wonders. I strongly recommend anyone desirous of loosing weight to
start on this program immediately. Best part of the program is that
it is doable! --- B. H. Jajoo
General Motors: Weight Loss Diet Program
The following diet and health program was developed for
employees and dependents of General Motors, Inc. and is intended
for their exclusive use. This program was developed in conjunction
with a grant from U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Food and
Drug Administration. It was field tested at the Johns Hopkins
Research Centre and was approved for distribution by the Board of
Directors, General Motors Corp. at a general meeting on August 15,
1985. General Motors Corp. wholly endorses this program and is
making it available to all employees and families. This program
will be available at all General Motors Food Service Facilities. It
is management's intention to facilitate a wellness and fitness
program for everyone. This program is designed for a target weight
loss of 10-17 lbs per week. It will also improve your attitudes and
emotions because of its cleansing systematic effects. The
effectiveness of this seven day plan is that the food eaten burn
more calories than they give to the body in caloric value. This
plan can be used as often as you like without any fear of
complications. It is designed to flush your system of impurities
and give you a feeling of well being. After seven days you will
begin to feel lighter because you will be lighter by at least 10
lbs. You will have an abundance of energy and an improved
disposition. During the first seven days you must abstain from all
alcoholYou must drink 10 glasses of water each day Day One All
fruits except bananas. Your first day will consist of all the
fruits you want. It is strongly suggested that you consume lots of
melons the first day. Especially watermelon and a loupe. If you
limit your fruit consumption to melons, your chances of losing
three lbs. on first day are very good.
Day Two All vegetables. You are encouraged to eat until you are
stuffed with all the raw or cooked vegetables of your choice. There
is no limit on the amount or type. For your complex carbohydrate,
you will start day two with a large baked potato for breakfast. You
may top the potato with one pat of butter. Day Three A mixture of
fruits and vegetables of your choice. Any amount, any quantity. No
bananas yet. No potatoes today. Day Four Bananas and milk. Today
you will eat as many as eight bananas and drink three glasses of
milk. This will be combined with the special soup which may be
eaten in limited quantities. Day Five Today is feast day. You will
eat beef and tomatoes. Eat two 10 oz. portions of lean beef.
Hamburger is OK. Combine this with six whole tomatoes. On day five
you must increase your water intake by one quart. This is to
cleanse your system of the uric acid you will be producing. Day Six
Beef and vegetables. Today you may eat an unlimited amount of beef
and vegetables. Eat to your hearts content. Day Seven Today your
food intake will consist of brown rice, fruit juices and all the
vegetables you care to consume.
Tomorrow morning you will be 10-17 lbs. lighter than one week
ago. If you desire further weight loss, repeat the program again.
You may repeat this program as often as you like, however, it is
suggested that you are allowed two glasses of white wine in
addition to the instructions on the program. You may substitute
champagne for white wine. Under no circumstances are you to drink
any other alcoholic beverages with the exception of beer which is
allowed. Any liquor (bourbon,vodka, rum) is forbidden. Cream drinks
are especially forbidden. You may have an occasional cordial such
as creme de menthe or schnapps, but you must always limit yourself
to two drinks. If you wine, drink only wine that day. If you have
beer, drink only beer that day, etc. Alcohol adds empty calories to
your diet. However, after the first week it will help your
digestion and settle your stomach. G.M.'S Wonder Soup The following
soup is intended as a supplement to your diet. It can be eaten any
time of the day in virtually unlimited quantities. You are
encouraged to consume large quantities of this soup. 28 oz, Water,
6 Large Onions, 2 Green Peppers, Whole Tomatoes (fresh or canned),
1 Head Cabbage, 1 Bunch Celery, 4 Envelopes Lipton Onion Soup Mix,
Herbs and Flavouring as desired. Additional Comments Vegetables as
may be taken in the form of a salad if desired. No dressing except
malt, white or wine vinegar, squeezed lemon, garlic, herbs. No more
than one tea spoon of oil. You have been given a recipe for the
WONDER SOUP which can be eaten in unlimited quantities. This soup
is a supplement while you are on the program and it should be a
pleasure to eat. Not everyone likes cabbage, green peppers, calory
etc. This recipe is not inflexible. You may substitute vegetables
according to your taste. You may add any vegetables you like:
asparagus, peas, corn, turnips, green beans, cauliflower, etc. Try
to stay away from beans (lima, pinto, kidney, etc.), however,
because they tend to be high in calories even though they are very
good for you. Beverages you may consume while on the program : 1.
Water (flavoured with lemon/lime if desired). 2. Club Soda is OK.
3. Black Coffee. No cream or cream substitute. No sugar or
sweetness. 4. Black Tea = Herb or Leaf. 5. Absolutely nothing else
except the fruit juices which are part of day seven. No fruit
juices before day seven. How and Why It Works Day One you are
preparing your system for the upcoming programme. Your only source
of nutrition is fresh or canned fruits. Fruits are nature's perfect
food. They provide everything you could possibly want to sustain
life except total balance and variety. Day Two starts with a fix of
complex carbo-hydrates coupled with an oil dose. This is taken in
the morning for energy and balance. The rest of day two consists of
vegetables which are virtually calorie free and provide essential
nutrients and fibre. Day Three eliminates the potato because you
get your carbohydrates from the fruits. You system is now prepared
to start burning excess pounds. You will still have cravings which
should start to diminish by day four. Day Four, bananas, milk and
soup sound the strangest and least desirable. You're in for a
surprise. You probably will not eat all the bananas allowed. But
they are there for the potassium you have lost and the sodium you
may have missed the past three days. You will notice a definite
loss of desire for sweets. You will be surprised how easy this day
will go. Day Five, Beef and tomatoes. The beef is for iron and
proteins, the tomatoes are for digestion and fibre. Lots and lots
of water purifies your system. You should notice colourless urine
today. Your allowance calls for the equivalent of five "quarter
ponders". Do not feel you have to eat all this beef. You must eat
the six tomatoes. Day Six is similar to day five, Iron and proteins
from beef, Vitamins and fibre from vegetables. By now your system
is in a total weight loss inclination. There should be a noticeable
difference in the way you look today, compared to day one. Day
Seven finished off the program like a good cigar used to finish off
Victorian meals, except much healthier. You have your system under
control and it should thank you for the flushing and cleaning you
just gave it.

diet plan, you need to avoid alcohol for a few days. Especially in
the time of the diet schedule and before it. This is a very
important tip you need to follow. Alcohol increases the uric acid
in the body, which leads to water retention. This blocks the
natural detoxifying process from taking place.
It is also very essential that you drink up to 10 glasses of
water everyday. As you will not be consuming the same amount of
carbohydrates which you normally do. Water will be your main source
of energy for the whole day. It will also boost your metabolism and

will do. You can even begin your day with a boiled potato and a tea
spoon of butter. This is done in order to give the body enough
energy and carbohydrates for the day. But after that only raw and
boiled vegetables.
Only one potato this day is enough, dont consume more than that.
Adding a pinch of oregano or basil seasoning to make the vegetables

patelThough i am a hostel student soups r not possible so can i
strt it with only veg. N fruits all seven daysplz rplyReply Bipasha
MukherjeeYou must have only fruits on day 1 and only vegetables on
day 2. Day 3 will be a combination of fruits and vegetables. Day 4
is banana and milk day. On day 5 you can have paneer, yougurt,
brown rice, boiled vegetables. On day 6 and 7 you can have boiled
vegetables, sprouts, paneer, fruit juices, brown rice or
rotis.Reply SadaHi,What about the protein for the day? if we limit
the carbs it will also affect the Muscles more than fat. Our body
will start converting muscle to energy which will result in weight
loss but after the diet will it not decrease BMR which means we
will burn less calories than before the diet? i feel this diet will
do more damage than gains. Let me know if i wrong in my
understanding of this diet.Reply Bipasha MukherjeeHi Sada, see any
kind of short term diet is only a temporary solution for quickly
losing a few pounds and a strict diet like GM diet will definitely
affect the muscles along with the fat. But yet again its only a
temporary effect. In order to stay healthy in the long run we all
have to follow a healthy, balanced diet and regular exercise
regime. R.OYou can use whey protine with water only three times a
day .make sure the suger is less then 1 percent in it and no more

MukherjeeThanks for this great tip. Preeti AgarwalHi Bipasha,Thank

Bipasha MukherjeeCongratulations from the Fit Indian team on this
happy news. But I can not suggest you to follow this diet for the
time being because its a highly restrictive diet that will make you
weak which is harmful for both your baby and you. GuruHi
bipasha,Can we follow this diet plan with swimming and
jogging?Reply Bipasha MukherjeeYou might feel a bit weak during the
first four days of the diet, therefore it is best to resume
exercise from the 5th day of the diet. prakash karnacan i continue
my gym workout during this diet plan?Reply Bipasha MukherjeeThe
first 4 days of the diet can make you feel a bit weak and its best
to resume exercise form the 5th day. sagarHi, I just want more
clearance on day 6th. Which is not cleared for me. Can you please
suggest what I can have on day 6th. Thanks and kindly repky on my
mail id it appreciates.Reply Bipasha MukherjeeYou can have sprouts,
cottage cheese, vegetables and brown rice on day 6 of the diet. You
can have sprout salad for breakfast, a bowl of brown rice and
cottage cheese for lunch, a bowl of curd in the evening and
vegetable soup for dinner. SwapnilThis is insane.One should not
follow..Regualr walk and controlled diet will give you better
results for longer term..Avoid outside snack fried stuff..n
all..once in fifteen days should be fine.This diet will make you
weeak n take away all your stamina..plus will givemany side effects

portion,u can try drinking water before you eat..dat will make u
feel full n quantity will be in control..but u shudn stave..eat
everything but limited..regular walk can do wonders..Reply Bipasha
MukherjeeThank you for this helpful advice. ThirzaHI i just started
today with the diet?But i have one question?On some days you must
consume soup is there anything you can consume instead of soup?
Like veggies?Lovely Greetz ThirzaReply Bipasha MukherjeeYes you can
consume boiled vegetables seasoned with a little salt and pepper
instead of soup.Reply soma duttaHi Bipasha,Really nice article you
have . got the insight about it. But i have a small question on it.
on day 2 and 3 and after that whenevre I will be consuming
vegitables can I intake salt with it. Thanks in advanceSomaReply
Bipasha MukherjeeYes you can always have salt for seasoning your
vegetables but have it in very less amount.2. TomasHi
Evangeline,What a difference in the Before and After pictures! One
question though. As I understand the GM diet, meat is allowed to
some extent. Have you made your own special vegetarian version of
the GM diet or where did you hear about it?Thanks!Reply3.
SahanthaIve tried this diet many times before and it has doubled my
energy as well as helped me become more active. Ive lost around 5

seasoned with a pinch of salt and black pepper, I think you will
like it.5. diathank you..it works i lost 7 kgs in the very first

doi want a reply as fast as possiblethank uReply6. veenucan i add
salt in soups n in vegetables. pls reply me.Reply Evangeline
SupriyaI think if your soup tastes extremely bland, you can try
adding a little salt. Better yet try adding a few drops of lemon
juice to give you the perfect taste.Reply7. Abhijeet KulkarniHi,A
great article i must say. Its difficult to get the exact details of
a GM diet for indian veggies. So appreciate your effort here. I
have a few questions.Day 4 do you have any specific recipie for the
soupDay 5 You have mentioned we can eat cottage cheese and other
veggies. Can you create a sabzi out of it and eat the same? or do
we have to consume it raw..I have started with the first day of the
diet now hoping for some good resultsAlso how safe it is to
continue the same diet week after weekReply Evangeline SupriyaThank
You. For Day 4 there is no particular recipe. However, to keep the
soup healthy try to boil capsicum, onions, garlic and tomatoes. Add
a few drops of lemon juice and drink it. It may not taste delicious
but it is definitely healthy. Do not over boil the vegetables as
they lose their richness.Day 5: Cottage cheese and other vegetables
can be made into a salad. You can definitely use your creativity to
get a healthy meal.It is recommended that you take 3 to 4 days off
the diet after every week. The body needs to get enough energy to
continue the diet. You need to watch what you eat in the other
days.Reply8. KanshuAwesome article This is what i was looking for a
long time (The indian version of GM Diet plan)Going to start this
from tomorrow.GOD give me courage Reply9. vishwajaHey, i really
intend to follow this diet strictly, but there is only one fear. I
have a pear shaped body and am extra fat below..my upper portion is
just fine. So am i going to lose weight from my breasts as well?
cause i really dont want that!Reply Bipasha MukherjeeThe GM Diet
can not concentrate on a certain portion of the body and you are
going to lose weight from your entire body. You will be able to
feel the results after the completion of the diet, as you will come
down a dress size.Reply drishtiHey bipasha, I m following ur 7 day
diet but wen I weighed myself on the 4th day to check my weight it
increased by 2 kgs I m sooo depressed!!Reply Bipasha MukherjeeDont
worry, just stick to the diet. may be its the water weight that you
saw, because you are consuming 8-10 glasses of water per day.Reply
yashdristi/BipashaWhat was the end result? Even i gained weight. I
am doing 5th day . phethetic!!! Bipasha MukherjeeDear Yash, please
dont feel disappointed as the diet will show results differently
for different people because we all of us are separate individuals.
Keep up with the diet as instructed and eat only when you feel
hungry. Dont stuff in more food than you can eat just because it is
instructed in the diet. Yashhi drishti,did it work to you? wat was
the result after 7 days?because even i have put on weight after 3
daysReply DimHey plz can u help me for day 4. What all we can have
in sprouts ?? N all those have to b compulsorily be sprouted

d meal plan of 7 day I ll vry b very thankful to u if u reply me
soon Reply11. girikcan i use salt in vegitable planReply Bipasha
MukherjeeYes, but very negligible amount.Reply12. AparajitaDear
Evangeline. Thanks for a great diet plan. Day 4 confuses me though.
is it just 6 bananas, 4 glasses of milk and 1 cup of soup for the
whole day? Appreciate a quick revert. I plan to start tomorrow if
day 4 gets easier. Thanks.Reply Bipasha MukherjeeAlthough surviving
on 6 bananas and 4 glasses for the whole day might appear a bit
tough, but banana is a fairly heavy fruit and keeps the stomach
full for a considerable amount of time. You can make a banana milk
shake which also helps to keep the stomach full. So, dont worry and
get started with your diet.Reply farican i have olive oil in tikka
on 5 and 6 dayReply Bipasha MukherjeeYes, but limit it to 1
tps.Reply13. akshyahey..Evangeline..really thankful for ur

take green tea between your meals. As for salt and pepper, try to
keep it as low as possible.Reply15. Fruityi wanna ask u that can i
eat oats on second day i mean an oatmeal soup with corns and
coriander or something like that .Reply Bipasha MukherjeeDont go
for any kind of soups on day 2. Soups are allotted to day 6. You
can spice up your platter of boiled vegetables with a pinch of
black pepper power and a dash of lemon juice.Reply16. trivedi

Bipasha MukherjeeThank you for trying the GM Diet Plan.Reply20.
Subramanya BharadwajHelloIt is really a great article i started
yesterdayJust wanted to know the quantity of liquid intake in ML
like for water every day and milk on day 4..Thank you Reply Bipasha
MukherjeeAn average glass of water is around 250 ml, so 10 glasses
of water per day would be 2500 ml and 4 glasses of milk on day 4
would be 1000 ml approximately.Reply21. Subramanya BharadwajThank
you very much Reply22. Gaurav DalalHi All,I too have tried this
diet plan thrice. It worked for me. It increases amount of energy
and thus will also increase stamina. Follow it religiously, i bet
on it , it will definitely works.Keeping yourself away from FOOD
you love just for seven days isnt that tough. You can resist
it.Reply23. shinuit seems effective.going to have a try.thank you
for this diet planReply24. NithaHi Could you tell me if I can use

corns in my diet??., I checked my weight.. I didnt loose at all ..
M worriedReply Bipasha MukherjeeYes sweet corn can be consumed
during the 3rd day of GM Diet, but remember to eat the vegetable
raw or boiled, dont use oil for frying the veggies. Follow the
instructions religiously and you will surely see positive
results.Reply26. DheepaHi.Do we have leave a gap after 7 days for
the body to adapt this diet change. If so, what will be the diet
during the gap period. Or can we can continue 7 day plan for the
next cycle. Can I substitute honey in green tea, black tea or black
coffee.Reply Bipasha MukherjeeThis diet plan is for 7 days, you
should not continue it for more than 7 days at a stretch. As soon
as 7 days are over gradually shift back to a normal healthy diet
and if required follow the GM diet for another 7 days the following
month. Yes, you can add honey to your green tea and black
coffee.Reply DheepaThank you. Will keep you posted on the results
of the 7 day plan.Reply Bipasha MukherjeeWe will be waiting to know

on day 5. It just says feast meal and tomtoes. i didnt get that.
what shuld i consume for breakfast,lunch and dinner ?Reply Bipasha
MukherjeeThe original diet on day 5 of GM Diet Plan is 6 tomatoes
and beef. But in the vegetarian version, the beef can be
substituted for a bowl of brown rice or cup of yogurt. you can have
2 tomatoes and a cup of yogurt for breakfast, followed by a small
bowl of brown rice and soup for lunch. Snack on 2 tomatoes in the
evening and have the rest of the 2 tomatoes and a bowl of soup for
dinner.Reply31. sumaCan u pls clear me what we can eat on 5th&6
th day of GM diet.We can eat vegetables and fruits also .I am on

fifth day you have to eat a total of 6 tomatoes throughout the day.
So you can have 2 tomatoes and a bowl of soup for breakfast, a bowl
of brown rice and soup for lunch, 2 tomatoes in the evening and the
rest of the tomatoes and another bowl of soup for dinner. You have
a lot of options on day 6. Gorge on cottage cheese, sprouts and
vegetables except tomatoes. Have some boiled vegetables for
breakfast, followed by a bowl of vegetable and cottage cheese soup
for lunch. Have a mixture of sprouts with a dash of lemon in the
evening and some fresh salad and soup for dinner.Reply32. Jayeeta
ghoshHi , I am only 52 and currently weigh 75 kgs, I put on weight
easily and now I think I will try to do this GM diet. But my
question is will I have the enough energy to carry on with the
daily household chores as I live in UK and have to do everything my
self including taking care of a six year old and the work is never
ending. I also have a low iron level and insomnia.Reply Bipasha
MukherjeeGM diet is a sure way to lose weight, but the first 3 day
can be difficult and you might feel weak and lethargic. As you say
that you have low iron level and insomnia, I would suggest you to
consult your physician before going for the GM diet.Reply33.
sunnyHiCan we have frozen green peas on day 2 along with other
vegetablesThanksReply Bipasha MukherjeeYes, you can have frozen
peas along with other vegetables, but its always better to go for
the fresh ones if available.Reply Mohan RaoCan I eat green leaves
on the second day ?Reply Bipasha MukherjeeYes of course, you can
eat leafy vegetables like spinach, lettuce, cabbage, etc.Reply
Mohan RaoDear Bipasa,Ive successfully completed 2 days.Ive few
doubts regarding remaining days.1.Can I take butter milk or curd
?2. Can I eat eggs with vegetables? Bipasha MukherjeeAs you say you
have already completed day 1 & 2 so you must be knowing that
day 3 is a combination of day 1 & 2 where you can eat both
fruits and vegetables. On day 4 you can have 6-8 bananas and up to
4 glasses of milk. On day 5 you must have 6 tomatoes along with
sprouts, cottage cheese (paneer), brown rice and soy chunks.You can
have butter milk or curd on the 5th day. On day 6 and 7 you can
have eggs, but only egg whites.34. IshaHi, just done with my first
day ..feeling not too bad Please help me for day 5 as I dont like
to eat raw tomatoes!!can I add it to other veggies n jv a
salad??also can I substitute brown rice for raw rice(unpolished
)??? Awaiting your prompt replythnxReply Bipasha MukherjeeBrown
rice is the best substitute for beef. But if you cant manage it
then you can substitute it for yogurt and cottage cheese (paneer).
As for the tomatoes, if you dont like it raw then roast them a bit
and sprinkle some salt and pepper.Reply35. Mohan RaoCan I eat sweet
corn on day2?In what quantity?Reply Bipasha MukherjeeYes, sweet
corn can be consumed on day 2. Mix it with the other vegetables you
are eating.Reply36. chanduDay 5, is it vegetable day or do we need
to drink the soup only with the mentioned ingrediets ? If only
soup, then how many times in a day.Reply Bipasha MukherjeeNo, day 5
is not a vegetable day. You must consume at least 6 tomatoes
throughout the day coupled with yogurt, cottage cheese and soup.
You can also have a small bowl of brown rice for lunch.Reply
ramyahi,can i have tomato with any type of dal on day5?Reply
Bipasha MukherjeeTry to stay away from lentils during the 7 days of
the diet, have the tomatoes raw or slightly roasted with a sprinkle
of olive oil.Reply37. subeeCant we eat daals(in soups) in the GM
diet plan?If yes, which all days can it be eaten?Reply Bipasha
MukherjeeYou can eat sprouts and lentil salads but not daal because
it requires salt and sugar for preparation and you need to stay
from those 2 things during the GM diet.Reply38. Mohan RaoDear
Bipasa,Im very glad to say that Ive my completed my 4 days of
diet.Actually Im a south Indian and Im a complete non vegetarian.My
food habbits are idly or dosa in breakfast,rice with curries like

fruits, fruit juices, chicken stew and fish stew during the 5th,6th
and 7th day.Reply39. chanduCan you provide a plan for 3-4 days

gm diet for 7 days ..and on dqy 8 i returned to day 1 and continued
the diet now im on 2 nd day again..i did not know that gap of 2 -3
days was mustwhat should i do now?Reply Bipasha MukherjeeYou should
not continue the diet for more than 1 week. Stop it immediately and
resume your normal diet. You should follow GM diet once a
month.Reply41. Sunny MantriThis is my third day. I have lost 1.4kg
and .3kg in the first two days itself.I am thrilled by the fact
that my waist has come down from 39 to 37 !. These are amazing
results ! These initial results have given me enough encouragement
to continue..However, I should mention that I felt a constant
headache for almost the whole part of the 2 days. It was also very
hard to go to sleep on almost an empty stomach.I made a firm
decision before starting this diet that I will not let any excuse
(usually long hours at work) to ruin this diet plan and that I will
follow this diet plan to the letter T. A big thanks to Bipasha and
my awesome wife who always make sure that I have proper food
available to eat.Will post the final results. Bipasha I will truly
appreciate if you can elabourate on day 5 diet. Its bit confusing
how many times we can have ? how much cottage cheese we can consume
? Thanks once again.-SunnyReply Bipasha MukherjeeCongrats! It feels
great to know that the diet worked so well for you. As for day 5,
you can have You must eat 6 tomatoes throughout the day. You can
have a bowl of soup and 2 tomatoes for breakfast, followed by a cup
of brown rice and a bowl of cottage cheese for lunch. Snack on 2
tomatoes in the evening and have another bowl of soup and the rest
of the tomatoes for dinner.Reply42. GuruBoyHi, First of all, this
is a great thing you are doing here, very much appreciated.Second I
have a few questions of my own, if you will be so kind to answer
them,A) Isnt it bad to loose more than 2 lbs /week , i.e. how do
you know you are loosing fat, not Lean Body Mass, Muscle mass,
things like that.B) Can men follow this diet, I read in an article
that reducing carbs can reduce Testosterone, and induce estrogen in
men. Please shed some light on this subject.RegardsGuruBoy.Reply
Bipasha MukherjeeThank you for recognizing our efforts. It is
always bad to lose weight drastically and it is often the muscle
mass that we loose. GM diet is not a permanent solution for weight
issues, it is more of a detoxifying regime that helps in shedding a
few pounds. And as for point B, I personally dont know about any
such inverse relation between carbs and testosterone, even if there
is, the effect is only temporary because as you get back to normal
diet your carb intake will rise naturally.Reply Sunny MantriHi
Bipasha,Just a bit concerned with your reply here. Are we losing
muscle mass or actual fat ? I have lost 2.3kgs so far (day 6
morning) and I can notice that I have lost weight from all over the
body but does that mean that I have lost muscles rather than the
fat. Please clarify.Thanks,SunnyReply Bipasha MukherjeeHi Sunny,
you are right. One of the major drawback of any diet is that in
addition to burning fat, it also leads to loss of muscle mass and
water to some extent and its the same for GM diet as well. You will
lose some muscle mass till the 3rd day.From the 4th day you will
feel better as milk and carbs are introduced to the diet. Light
exercises can also help recover muscle weakness but dont try any
exercises before the 4th day till proteins are introduced to the
diet.Reply43. priyahiiii m on 5th day and again i put on weight.m
worried. what should i do???Reply44. dishahi i am disha from
chennai, this is my first day of dieting, nice diet plan really i
want to reach soon to seventh day to lose weightReply Bipasha
MukherjeeAll the best Disha.Reply Ranchitwhat about oats (any
flavour) instead of Day 6 ?Reply Bipasha MukherjeeYes, you can have
plain oats with yogurt or milk but not flavored ones.Reply45.
dishahi, i hate to eat rice what can i take on rice place.Reply
Bipasha MukherjeeYou can eat yogurt, curd and cottage cheese
(paneer) instead of rice.Reply46. Mohan RaoHi,Ive successfully
completed 6days of my diet and Ive almost lost 3 kgs.I want to know
d exact diet that I should follow on d 7th day.Pls replyReply47.
manuhi all..after 7days the weight increase and showing as it
is.their is no use of using and following this diet.Reply Bipasha
MukherjeeThis diet usually works for weight loss, may be you have
missed out some crucial points that is needed to be followed to
achieve optimum results from this diet plan.Reply48. SusanthiHiI am
a little confused about the diet on Day 5 & 6. You mentioned we
can have soup. Is it any number of times a day? If its only once a
day, what are we suppose to eat for the rest of the day. This also
applies to Day 7 when we can have the proper meal? What do we eat
rest of the day?Reply Bipasha MukherjeeYou can have the soup twice
a day. On day 5 you must have 6 tomatoes throughout the day. So
start the day with 2 tomatoes and a bowl of soup. Have a bowl of
brown rice and cottage cheese for lunch. Eat 2 more tomatoes in the
evening. HAve another bowl of soup and 2 tomatoes for dinner. On
day 6, have mixed sprouts salad for breakfast, followed by cottage
cheese and boiled vegetables for lunch. Have a bowl of vegetable
soup in the evening and salad and soup for dinner. Do not eat
tomatoes on day 6. On day 7 you can have fruit juices in addition
to vegetables and brown rice. Have boiled vegetables for breakfast,
followed by a bowl of brown rice and vegetable soup for lunch. Have
fresh fruit juices in the evening and salad and vegetable soup for
dinner. You can resume your normal diet from the 8th day.Reply49.
dishathanks it is my second day i lost 1.6 kg. it was difficult for
second day morning. but keeping goal to lose weight we can do
believe me its work.Reply50. nishiHi Bipasha,Just wanted to know
dat d soup u have mentioned should be taken with salt or widout.
Pl. Reply as am planning to start this diet from monday.. sounds

should be negligible, just enough for seasoning.Reply51. radhii am
doing this diet plan. today is my third day.. Morning i check my
weight i lost 1.5 kg.. Usually how much everybody loose?I am
waiting for the last day to see my weight Reply Bipasha
MukherjeeThere is no fixed amount of weight loss and it varies from
person to person and their metabolism. As I see, 1.5 kgs in 3 days,
you are on the right path, just keep it up and you will see
wonderful results by the end of the 7th day.Reply52. Mh90Hello, I
am on the 4th day of the diet so far, and am ecstatic to have lost
2.7KG already (I weight 76KG starting the diet). I found the first
two days difficult, as I had a constant headache. I powered
through, and day 3 was much easier. Day 3 was a breeze, if you can
get through the first two days. Already I feel 10 times more
energetic than usual, and feel lighter. Thank you so much for
posting the diet which is already increasing my confidence.Reply
Bipasha MukherjeeIt feels great to know about your success with the
GM diet. Do let us know about the final result.Reply Mh90Hi
Bipasha, Ive completed the diet, and lost a total of 3.6KG! Today I
had dal makhani and rotis, but didnt enjoy it much. I found myself
missing the diet foods (never thought that would ever happen) and
now plan on eating mostly fruit/veg/brown rice for the rest of the
day! I found that I had so much more energy during the diet.This
experience has definitely changed my eating habits for the better,
even after the diet has finished. For anyone considering doing this
diet, honestly it is only difficult for the first 2 days, and the
rest of the week is actually enjoyable!! Youll feel lighter,
energetic and fantastic.Reply Bipasha MukherjeeThank you for this
comment that will act as a great source of inspiration for those
trying out the GM diet.Reply53. diyai have hypothyroid. i m taking
a treatment for this. can i use this GM diet ?Reply Bipasha
MukherjeeAs you say that you are under medication for
hypothyroidism, therefore its a must to consult your physician
before commencing GM diet.Reply54. MshahCan i follow this diet
while i am feeding?Reply Bipasha MukherjeeIt best to follow a well
balanced and nutritious diet while you are feeding because GM diet
limits your options and strips the body of various proteins and
essential fats temporarily.Reply55. SunnyHi,We a set of 6 people
are going to try the diet, we wanted a brief of the diet to be
followed on the 5th and 6th day along with the reciepe of the soup
and quantity we should consume. Hoping for a quick reply.
ThanksReply Bipasha MukherjeeIts great to see that people trying
out the GM diet in a pursuit to stay healthy. Day 5 comprises of
tomatoes,cottage cheese,soup,yogurt and brown rice. You must have 6
tomatoes throughout the day. Have 2 tomatoes and a bowl of soup for
breakfast, followed by a bowl of brown rice along with 100 gm
cottage cheese for lunch. Have 2 more tomatoes and 200 gms sour
yogurt in the evening followed by rest of the 2 tomatoes and
another bowl of soup for dinner. Day 6 will comprise of vegetables
except tomatoes, sprouts, brown rice and soup. Start the day with a
bowl full of mixed sprouts salad followed by a cup of brown rice
and a bowl of sauteed or stewed mixed vegetable for lunch. have a
bowl of soup in the evening followed by salad and soup for dinner.
The recipe of the Soup is as follows:Onions- 6 Finely chopped,
Green Pepper-2 chopped, Tomatoes-3 chopped, Cabbage-1 finely
chopped, water-1.5 liters. Saute the onions and pepper in pan with
olive oil, now add tomatoes and saute for a minute, now add the
cabbage and saute for another minute. Now transfer everything into
a large pot and add water. Bring it to boil and cook till all
vegetables are tender. You might have to add more water if soups
turns too thick. Add salt and black pepper powder for
seasoning.Reply Mrs. SriramHi Bips,I am in day 4 with skimmed milk
and bananas, really sick though. I had lost 2 kgs of weight from 66
to 64 in the first 3 days and today I have become 65 again, its
discouraging ya, will it come down?I am religiously following your
menu and Ideas. We are vegetarians, what do we eat along with brown
rice on the following days . ? pl suggest.You are doing an awesome
job, kudos to you.Reply Bipasha MukherjeeThanks Mrs. Sriram for
appreciating our efforts. I feel the weight gain is only a
temporary effect, do follow the diet religiously. You can have a
bowl of cottage cheese (paneer) prepared with light oil and spices
along with the brown rice.Reply56. nehaHi Bipasha.read all ur posts
will start the gm diet plan from tomorrow and will keep u posted
after that. thanks thoughReply Bipasha MukherjeeDo keep us updated
about your progress.Reply57. rohiniJust wanted to know
onething..will I gain back weight once I reduce in 7daysi workout
at gym everyday and have healthy food onlybut Iam worried if I will
gain moreReply Bipasha MukherjeeThere remains high chances of
gaining back the weight that one loses during the 7 days of dieting
but if you are following a healthy diet and in to regular workout
then you wont gain back the weight.Reply58. KousalyaHi,I see you
have told that we should take 3 to 4 days off from the diet. Can
you please tell me what kind of food that we can eat at that time.
What kind of food will help to get energy and as well maintain the
weight.Reply Bipasha MukherjeeYou should follow this diet only once
a month and definitely dont stretch it beyond 7 days. Our body
needs the fats, proteins and carbs for proper functioning and
stripping it off these nutrients for more than 7 days is not a wise
decision. After the 7 days are over go back to a normal,healthy and
balanced diet.Reply59. SheyGuys is there anything else we can
substitute instead of banana ?? I really am not a banana fan Really
hope to have answer ASAP!!Reply Bipasha MukherjeeYou need to
include bananas in your diet on day 4 for the diet to work
effectively. Banana a rich source of potassium that is necessary
for the body on day 4. Instead of eating the bananas whole, you can
turn them into banana milk shake or you can avoid it all together
and stick to the soup on day 4.Reply60. kalyaniCan the gm wonder
soup be taken right from day 1 or only from day 5 onwards? or is it
strictly fruits on day 1?Reply Bipasha MukherjeeThe soup is to be
taken from day 5 and not before that. Its strictly fruits on day 1,
only veggies on day 2, only fruits and veggies on day 3, Milk and
bananas on day 4. You may have a bowl of soup for lunch at day
4.Reply61. ESHAhi,actually i dont eat tomatoes. so is there any
substitute for tomatoes on 5th day . cant this diet plan be
complete without tomatoes .please reply asap!!!Reply Bipasha
MukherjeeSorry Isha but there is no equally effective substitute
for tomatoes. If you hate raw tomatoes, then you can roast them a
bit and sprinkle some salt and pepper for better taste.Reply
HARPREET KAURHIIICAN U TELL ME CAN I TAKE SALT IN SOUP AND IN
VEGITABLESReply Bipasha MukherjeeYes, you can season the soup and
boiled vegetables with a pinch of salt and black pepper
powder.Reply62. ESHACan i drink cocunut water everyday during this
diet? can i add carrots to my salads?Reply Bipasha
MukherjeeOfcourse you can during coconut water during the diet and
carrots are a great addition to salad.Reply divyai tried this diet
bt again i gained 3kgs weight though i did workouts and had less
amount of food gme soln im totally depressedReply eshaHII wanted to
know whether it is one cup of cooked or uncooked rice for 5th day?
And i have heard that after coming back to normal diet our weight
also comes up to normal with maximum lost weight to be just one
kilo?Reply eshaAnd i am doing about 30 min of walking on treadmill
daily, is it enough or do i need more workout for better results so
that i loose more wight and dat weight doesnt come up to my usual
after normal deit? Can i add jus half spoon of oil to baked
tomatoes on 5th day. plz reply soon.Reply eshacan i add cottage
cheese with green peas, cucumber, carrorts an sprouts as a salad
all together and hav it on lunch? plz reply as m on 3rd day Bipasha
MukherjeeYes you can add cottage cheese to your salad. Bipasha
MukherjeeWalking half an hour on the treadmill will be enough, and
use olive oil for the baked tomatoes. Bipasha MukherjeeYou must
have 1 cup cooked brown rice on the 5th day. It is true that with
in a few days of resuming normal diet, the weight also comes back
to normal because much of the weight that is lost during the diet
is water weight and muscles along with fat.Reply63. divyai tried
this diet and lost 4kgsbt my problem is I gaines bach 3kgs in 3
days what should i do.I even ate very small amount of foodand i
even did work outs very much depressed..gime some solnReply Bipasha
MukherjeeAs we lower our calorie intake during the GM diet, our
metabolism is also slowed down and it often takes time to get back
to normal even after we resume our normal diet. This slowed down
metabolism leads to weight gain. Further, much of the weight we
lose during the diet is water weight and muscles. This yo-yo effect
of the diet can be avoided by boosting up your metabolism at the
end of the diet. This can be done by increasing the amount of
physical activities that increases the heart rate such as brisk
walking, swimming, cycling.Reply64. poojacan i use sugar free
instead of sugar? Pls give me the reply as early as possibleReply
Bipasha MukherjeeIts better to stay away from sugar as well as any
other artificial sweetener during the diet.Reply65. rohiniHi ..i
have started my gm diet today..feeling good eating fruitsjust
wanted to know if I cam add mushroom and babycorn to my day 2..also
can I use 2spoons of olive Oil and soya sauce just to give a
flavour to all vegetablesReply Bipasha MukherjeeBest of luck for
your diet Rohini. You can add baby corn and mushrooms but its best
to stay away from any kind of oil and soy sauce. Use lemon juice,
black pepper powder and a pinch of salt for seasoning.Reply66.
rohiniThanks for your responsecan I have lemon juice with salt and
honey in these 7daysReply Bipasha MukherjeeHave lemon juice with
warm water, dont add salt or honey to it for these 7 days.Reply67.
rohiniCan I take sweet potato on day 2,3,5 and sixReply Bipasha
MukherjeeYes sweet potatoes can be added to the vegetables, but
have it in moderation.Reply68. imtiyazHi, I am following this diet
from past 3 days.but today because of certain reasons I have taken
little rice in my dietis it going to effect my diet.please
respondthank uReply Bipasha MukherjeeOnly milk and bananas are
allotted for the 4th day and if you have taken rice instead, then
it is going to affect the diet a bit indeed but I dont believe it
will have a very big impact. Continue the diet for the rest of the
3 days and check the results.Reply69. vasuI hv gastric prob. very
sensitive to lemons and fasting.. can I follow dis diet or it
aggrevates da acidity? pls reply fastReply Bipasha MukherjeePeople
suffering from gastric problems are sensitive to fasting. Therefore
I suggest you to avoid this diet because it might aggravate the
problem.Reply70. vasuthank u so much for da reply.Reply71.
imtiyazThanks a lot I will continue..Reply72. rohiniCan I add
little of jaggery to sweet potatoesReply Bipasha MukherjeeJaggery
has high glucose content and therefore it should be avoided while
following the GM diet.Reply73. Muthulakshmi KannanI usually take
lukewarm water with lemon and honey in early morning and i also
take green tea without sugar. is it k for this diet..Reply Bipasha
MukherjeeBoth are perfectly fine but cut out the honey during the 7
days of the diet.Reply74. SupriyaHi Bipasha, today is my 2nd day,
can I drink green tea on these 7 days (without sugar)Reply Bipasha
MukherjeeYes you can have green tea throughout the diet.Reply
SupriyaThanks a lot Bipasha !! I am on day 3 today & will check
my weight in evening.very excited, m feeling good &
light..Reply75. SeharHi ..lovely diet planthe soup recipe is for 5
and 6 day right? Could u give a 1200 calorie indian meal plan so i
can follow after finishing the diet to keep on losing weight
plz..Reply Bipasha MukherjeeThank you. The soup recipe is for day 5
and 6 but it can also be consumed on day 4 during lunch. We will
surely come up with an article on 1200 calorie Indian meal plan
soon.Reply76. kalyaniim on day 4,, not lost even 1 kg, but i dont
feel hungry n so i dont want to eat all what im supposed towhat to
do?Reply Bipasha MukherjeeThis diet is usually effective but it
works differently for each and every individual. Therefore follow
it till the 7th day and see the results. And you cant possibly
starve yourself because you are not feeling hungry right at the
moment, it must be a temporary phase and you will surely recover
from it soon. Do eat when you feel hungry.Reply77. rohinicAn I
drink slim skimmed milk without sugarReply Bipasha MukherjeeYou can
have skimmed milk instead of normal milk on day 4.Reply78.
suganyahi i need salad recipe for my gm diet day 2 ..pls reply
meReply Bipasha MukherjeeMost of the vegetables cant be eaten raw
therefore I suggest you to make a large quantity of boiled
vegetables that you can eat through out the day. Chop
carrots,beans,cauliflower,cabbage, broccoli, and other vegetables
that you like to eat, put it in a pot and boil till all vegetables
turn tender. Now drain out the water and store it. When ever you
feel hungry, take a portion of it, season with salt, black pepper
powder, lemon juice, and chopped tomatoes and have it. You can have
a simple salad made of cucumber,carrots,tomatoes, onions and
lettuce during lunch and dinner.Reply79. sonami m startin my die
from 2day with melon only.please suggest some vegetable i can hv
next day?cucumber and tomato are included?Reply Bipasha
MukherjeeSorry Sonam its not clear the diet of which specific day
or days you are asking about. Kindly be a bit more precise so that
I may help you out.Reply80. HeenaAny substitute for bananas? I hate
them. Cant even see them.And plz suggest any flavour to be added to
the milk? Elaichi or turmeric or anythin?Reply Bipasha MukherjeeIf
you dont like bananas then you can go for milk and banana shake
with a hint of elaichi. Or substitute bananas for melons.Reply81.
rohiniCan I have 2glasses of skimmed milk on 5th,6th and
7thdays..Reply82. sonamsry bt i ddnt strt my day wid a potatoe is
it goin to be wrong?Reply Bipasha MukherjeeThe motto of the 3rd day
is to start the day with a boost of potassium and vitamin and
continue with fibers for the rest of the day. Its ok if you didnt
have a potato in the morning if you have gorged on vegetables
throughout the day.Reply83. AsthaI am on my second day of
dietfeeling hungry..but yes feels lighter Reply Bipasha
MukherjeeYou are almost through the difficult phase of the diet.
keep it up!!Reply84. kalaivaniDear hi im going to follow this diet

after one week also during this diet im going for gym also but in

Bipasha MukherjeeOn day 2 you can make a large serving of boiled
vegetables that you can eat throughout the day. Boil broccoli,
carrots, beans, cauliflower, cabbage, peas, and all other
vegetables you like to eat except potatoes, drain the water and
keep aside. When you feel hungry, take desired portion on plate,
season with a pinch of salt, black pepper powder, lemon juice and
have it. Make a simple salad of cucumber, carrot, tomatoes, onions
and lettuce that you can have during lunch and dinner.Reply85.

and dont stuff yourself with excessive fruits and vegetables just
because its written in the diet.Reply87. rupaHelloDid gm diet plan
work in pcod n hypothyroid.today I have completed 6 days with
strictly diet n I have lost only 2 kgs. Previous my weight was
90.7kgsnow i am 88.2kgs..i am so depressed. .Please reply me..Reply
Bipasha MukherjeeDont be depressed Rupa, because GM diet usually
helps lose weight only in normal physical condition, but its a
great news if you have lost 2 kgs even while having hypothyroidism.
you should be happy that this diet is a success for you. After
completion of the diet go back to your normal eating habit, but
keep it healthy. You can again repeat the GM diet after a gap of
one month.Reply88. fiaCan I just drink banana milkshake rather than
eating them separately?Reply Bipasha MukherjeeYes, Banana milk
shake is a great idea to revamp the bland milk and banana menu of
day 4, but dont add sugar or artificial sweeteners to your milk
shake.Reply89. MrinaliniHi Bipasha, is there any way to continue
this diet plan for diabetic patient. Day 1 and day 4 have to eat
fruits and bananas.. Is there any substitute for these because they
increases sugar level.Reply Bipasha MukherjeeIts better for
diabetics to stay away from this diet as it affects the sugar
levels indeed. We are trying to come up with a weight loss diet for
diabetics very soon.Reply90. kalaivaniHi Dear,This is my day 1 im
starting my diet and i would like have one enquiry on 4th day of

beans instead of brown rice. You can also try oats if you
like.Reply93. Vardaan ShahIs this suitable for men too?Reply

women.Reply94. VijayI am currently in day 1 of GM diet..As of now i

is work out is compulsary during the course of diet.Reply SindrilHi
Bipasha,The diet plans to seems to be very excitingjust one query,
is work out is compulsary during the course of diet.Reply Bipasha
MukherjeeThank you Sindril. Work out is always important for our
body but during the first 3 days the body will remain weak because
of lack of carbohydrates and proteins and therefore it is suggested
not to do any type of exercises during the first 3 days. You can
resume light exercises from the 4th day and gradually increase the
intensity.Reply Nasreen PatelHI CAN U HELP ME WITH FULL DIET
CHARTReply Bipasha MukherjeeYou can have your favourite fruits
throughout the day on day 1, except bananas and mangoes. Try to
have as much melons as you can. On day 2 you can have your
favourite vegetables except potatoes in the form of soup or boiled
with a pinch of salt and black pepper powder. Also have salads. On
day 3 you can have a combination of fruits and vegetables. On day 4
you must have 4 glasses of milk and 6 bananas. Start your day with
2 bananas and a glass of milk. Have vegetable soup for lunch. Have
a banana and milk shake made of 2 bananas in the evening and have
rest of the two bananas and another glass of milk for dinner. On
day 5 you must have 6 tomatoes throughout the day. Start your day
with 2 tomatoes and a bowl of vegetable soup, Have a bowl of
vegetable and paneer curry for lunch, have 2 more tomatoes in the
evening, and a bowl of vegetable soup and the rest of the 2
tomatoes for dinner. On day 6 you can have sprouts salad for

and boiled vegetables for dinner.96. Yashwanthcan i have corn on
day 1 ? and why are grapes excluded. in what way can they affect
the diet ?Reply Bipasha MukherjeeCorn is not a fruit and therefore
you cant have it on day 1, you can have it on day 2 though.
Ofcourse you can add grapes to your diet on day 1.Reply97.

doing 1 hour exercise since 20 days. I hardly lost half to 1 kg. I
am very upset on this. Are you sure that following your program
helps to reduce weight???Reply Bipasha MukherjeeMeera, every thing
depends on the rate of exercise you are doing and the amount of
food you are consuming. Moreover, you have wrote that you eat
chapathis but you have not mentioned the number of chapathis you
consume. And 20 days is a very short time to see effective results.
I can assure you that the GM diet helps lose weight if done in the
proper way according to instructions.Reply Meeraok. I am starting
the diet tomo. i pray that it works for me.. i was eating 2 for bf,
3 for lunch and 3 for dinner.. plenty of water(more than 4 lts) did
i eat more???Reply MeeraI am 4th day. i followed 3 days of strict
diet plan mentioned ablow. but increased the weight 3rd day night i
checked my weight. I was 77.1 kg but now 77.6 kgs.Feeling so bad
and lost..Reply Bipasha MukherjeeNo need to worry Meera, the diet
will show results differently for different individuals. It may be
more effective for some people while it may take a bit longer to
show effective results for others. Stick to the diet and follow the
instructions properly and You will definitely see positive results.
MeeraI lost 1 to 1 n half kg. I strictly followed everything and
workout also. but i am happy atleast 1 kg instead of nothing after
hardwork!! Bipasha MukherjeeSorry to hear this Meera, but it varies
from person to person as each of our metabolisms work in their own
unique way.103. BhavikaAfter this 7 day diet is over..and I
