What is GM Diet
GM 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 it’s 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 body’s 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 Diet
To 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 Goals
The 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 plan’s 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 Diet
Being 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.

Tabinda, we discuss that here. I would not do the diet more than once a month. After it, I am big on cutting refined foods like flours, sugars and so forth eating balanced meals with protein and veg, etc.
i dont like the vegetables in the soup ! can i skip them and drink only the clear soup ?
Sure thing…

I would wait 2 weeks. But if you eat good foods in between like balanced meals daily with protein, veg some fruit and good fats you will likely keep losing!
Hello..i was following gm diet and it was my second day..however i was in rush and i had egg andbread in the morning and eventually broke my diet by the evening..so shud I resume it tomorrow from day two or I will have to start all over again..
I would start over after a day or 2.

I m a breastfeeding mother.and 4 months old son. Can I go for gm diet. Please suggest. I want to loose weight. Please reply. Thank you
Up to you and your doc. to me you may need a little more fat with each meal, say some good oil or something.
Is it ok if we eat a tbsp of. Something else..like noodles or curryduring the gm diet..will it spoil the diet?
No grains, so yes it can 100% spoil it. Noodles are empty carbs, a detriment to your health and have no redeeming nutritional value.
It’s really works , me and my roommate start together the diet
Now it’s the 4th day ,
Before I was 99 kg
My roommate 102 kg
Now 95,8 kg
Roommate 99,2 kg
It’s really amazing
My question is can I continue the diet without stopping
Coz i feel so energetic .
Not bad 🙂
No, stop, however consider going no grain. You will need some potatoes or white rice with each meal, do not want to go low carb. Try 3 square meals a day, good protein, lots of veg, some fruit, etc. You may be amazed at the additional weight loss and how great you feel. RUN from process foods.
I am doing Diet plan as said. But in night after 12. I become hungry and I do not get sleep.I f I drink water.it work for an hour but again same probelm. I also tried by drinking milk (cold). but it did not work. Finally I get half sleep. What should I do.
are you eating soup?
I have started my diet today.. day 1… had orange papaya for breakfast..can I have almond nuts.. n gree tea in the morning??
no nuts or seeds. tea OK no sweetener.
And the soup can be had from day one?!!? Cuz its not mentioned in the plan.. it says only fruits.. and 2nd day only veggie. . Pls lemme knw if I can have the soup everyday…
it can be had everyday
gm diet plan is working without soup ???? please answer
not as well, no
Thank u for yr reply.. I need to be prepared for the 4th day.. milk n banana.. can u suggest some combination… can I have lassi with less sugar.. or cold coffe.. or milk tea.. or butter milk with salt. I love banana.. so can I have as many as I want ?!? Till I feel full ..
NO, 4 bananas total. you can do buttermilk, coconut milk or almond milk. No other sweeteners. You can also have the soup.
Can I add some cheese to my salad.. any cheese tat u recommend
no, sorry….
For 5th day.. how many cup of rice I can have..for lunch n dinner… m veggie.. so curd can be added huh?
1 cup of brown rice may be used as a substitute for beef, or a cup of cottage cheese.
Hey author.. with all due respect.. can u pls explain y i haven’t lost any weight. . Its day 6.. m quiet disappointed. . I followed it very strictly. .I feel light.. n feel my stomach area has become little flat..but kg wise.. no change much.. just.. 1 kg less
weight loss can vary for lots of reasons. 1) health conditions, issues. 2) Did you take anything off plan? How many bananas on day 4? Any wheat products taken or extra sugar/oils? If you did vegetarian version did you have rice to substitute meat and if so did you have fat with the rice? Also you can gain muscle, weighs more than fat.
I dint take anything off the plan till day 6. And I had small banana real small ones.. so had 8 in numbers with normal milk.. had brown rice with coconut oil.. though I feel good after diet. . I cant see any difference in weighing machine
You should feel good, you ate real foods. However 8 bananas, so so wrong. Sorry it can really affect you. You must have read that somewhere else, which makes me think you are reading another plan. I just can;t help, you and everyone else must realize those plans will not work right for most.
But author I have been reading day to day plan from this very website.. can u pls send me a link where I can see the right plan u talking abt.. cuz I would like to try after 2 weeks. And did u mean me eating brown rice was wrong.. ? I had coconut oil with tomato to add fat.
it’s on this site, look at the top. why would you follow another diet on another site and ask questions here?
I said tat cuz u mentioned in the previous chat that I must have read that from some where else… I read everyday from the top corner link only… I didn’t ask for another site link.. u misunderstood…
well you talked about 8 bananas, that is always a red flag. THX
Anyways I will try this again after 2 weeks n see..
Eat healthy in between, you will be amazed at how much of a difference it can make.

Hello, sorry to hear that. Yes various things like what you have mentioned can hamper weight loss. But don’t stop eating healthy. So you don’t eat chapati? Do you drink fake/artificial sweeteners? What is a normal diet day like for you?
hello,
thanks for reply yes I dont eat Chappti My normal Diet is One glass Milk without sugar and one an Apple in the monring then I take any fruits or vegs or Lighter food in Lunch N 200 grams or 150 grams Meat, beaf chiken almost boiled Or some times ( rarely half chappti) Or if rice r cooked then One bowl rice I never eat artifical juices or pepsi or any other drink drink or Fast foods etc. Since last three months . One cup tea without sugar one time and one green tea one time its my daily diet. N I have added Fruits in my diet I try to take any fruit like I ate pomigrante yesterday so I blv I m taking healthy food since 3 months. Further I did 1-2 hrs daily walk inside home.
by first glance most would think how you eat is healthy. Problems: breakfast should be balanced, meat, veg and a little starch like in potato or rice. same with lunch and dinner. Drinking milk and having an apple is so very carby, high in sugar since milk has sugar naturally.You diet is very void of good fats. You need them and seems way to low calorie.
Authro,
Rerally an apple with no sugar one glass milk warm is it heavier ??? strange Any ways I will change it I m also using brown bread one or 2 pc simple w tea. I have checked calories in one apple and one glass and other calories which Im taking in one day I blv I m not taking less than 1000 calories per day ?
This is not about calories so to speak. White sugar is garbage in the body. Are you comparing a natural apple to bleached out processed sugar? Brown bread? There is nothing healthy about brown bread. You are not following this plan at all. So sorry.
Hello , Can u pls guide me about good healthy daily routine diet I mean which we can take daily untill we start our next round and we can always take lighter but healthy foods in our life. I would be thankful to have that plan. I was in impression I never filled my stomach so I m taking less calories even I have calculted my daily calories. Pls refer the link for daily healthy foods as breakfast, lunch and dinner so that I can even reduce my wieght with normal diet plan. Thanks

workout is up to you, but you must follow the plan to the ‘T’, and eat right afterwards as well.
plz help me…i really need ur advice
OK. people have lost lots of weight on this plan in a short period of time. However, no diet can guarantee that much weight in that short of a period of time. 1) You must follow the plan perfectly! 2) you must come out of the diet eating perfectly. No wheat, no processed foods, balanced meals with a protein are a must and good fats. No sugared drinks, no msg, no sugar in your milk, REAL FOODS! It’s the only way
Author temme after completing this diet plan…
2 week break required ..
Tell me after 7th day completing what we have to eat..
I dnt wanna increase my weight ..plz tell me wat to eat at breal fast,lunch ,dinner nd all,

Yaa author i read that.but u tell me wat to eat.as i am vegetarian ,so tell me aftr completng thia diet plan wat to wat to eat…breakfast
Lunch
Dinner
Plz tell me
Not big on soy, so bad. You need balanced meals. So a protein with each meal, legumes, etc. White rice is great, so much better for you than brown. You need good fats, olive oil, coconut oil ghee, etc. Lots of veg, and some fruit is great. be very careful with too many nuts, seeds and dried fruits. Do not over snack and stay away from processed foods. You need to thing nutrient dense FOOD! 🙂
Means i cn acheive my target weight by loosing 15 kg in 1month.. I l start this diet frm tomorrow with d hope i cn reduce 15 kg,
Breakfast -sprouts
Lunch- 2 chappati,vegetable,dal salad
Dinner-dal or soup
Is dat fine after diet plan
seems a little bare, plus The chappati is just empty dead calories (weight gain). you have to get off of bread, sorry. Don’t be afraid to eat. You cannot go low carb/low calorie

Hey isha i take tea with sugar only.u can also take but less sugar.for me not possible widout sugar.u also take suagar but less,do walk and suryanamaskar…
Do dat…
Actually Isha you CANNOT take any sugar, and if you do it will cause issues down the road. Do it at your own risk. If you like sugar tea, best to switch to Stevia at least.
Thanks Bhavna,,
U again solved ma second prob also. I ll restart frm tomorrow with walk n surynamskar. Thank u again N ll update my weight loss…
Author plz tell me wat to eat at night
First, never suggest folks take sugar in their tea. it is beyond bad for weight.
I need to know first, what kind of vegetarian are you? Do you eat eggs or cheese?
I dnt eat egg.yaa cheese ok
1) Cut processed foods, sugar and such. 2) Wheat is so beyond bad. Unfortunately you have to cut it. Your meals should have a protein, some good fat and good carbs.
So maybe have dhal, however you may need more protein, more than likely so add some curd/cheese. Legume dishes are a good way to go. Sprout dishes are also good. You can have curds and white rice. They key here is watch snacking and drinking sugar drinks. If you are going to have a cup of tea best after you eat so you have fats and protein to balance out the sugar so to speak. Each dish, not matter what you have some good veg and you need carbs like potato, squashes, plantains, white rice, etc. This is key. Do not go low carb. Only eat good oils like olive or coconut. You need fat with each meal, just never over do it. SO for example, if you have curds, you don’t need extra oil really unless you need some to sautee veg. Also, if you have no fat in the dish, use up to 1 tablespoon of oil in it. Never overdo protein, convert to sugar too much will. Protein, you should need as a man 30 grams a dish, women a little less. If you snack, try and balance it with a little protein!!
Ok so breakfast i can have sprouts ,poha,idli all thing ryt
Lunch- no chappati,i can have dal boiled veg ryt
But for dinner tell me
Also u sayng i need fat and protien food ryt .
Tell me protien food.even rice increase wheat.
idli is semolina, semolina is wheat. I am not saying it’s easy to cut wheat. People here would have a fit. However it can be done, I don;t miss it at all, and I do not even get rice. Proteins would be cheese, curds and legumes. Fats would be the cheese or curd or good oils like olive or coconut oil. Increase the rice if you like. Especially white rice, it’s really just a good starch, brown rice, although people think it’s healthier is not. Dinner? Have some sort or bean/legume dish. Or curds and rice possibly. eats lots of veg in the dishes. Oh yah, good carbs would be fruit, say 2 servings a day. However try and have it after a meal instead of on it’s own.
U mean i have to stop eating chappati.so at lunch and dinner sen wat i have eat tell me some name
Okay….i will stop eating wheat.also tell me every day earing rice in lunch will not increase weight.
Also tell me legumes dishes such as????
I have to eat rice everyday is it at lunch.as at night i will follow dal nd fruits..
rice at lunch with fat, protein and veg is balanced… WHole natural foods are not the issue. legume dishes? up to you, I make lots of soups and hashes…
By eating everyday rice my weight will not increase na…i m not eating wheat.
Brkfast- i had sprouts
Lunch- dal rice
Dinner- dal
Is dat fine naaa…or wat to have
I did not say eat rice every meal, you need diversity, have plantains for good carbs/starch, fruit, etc. BALANCE!!!!

Hello author i waanaa ask that when i did this diet plan i lost 5 kg..
But aftr eating again m gaining my weight..why..
what have you been eating? sugar? wheat? processed foods? let me know
U r harming your body…go with natural…eliminate gluten and cut off sugar and drink atleast 15 to 20 glasses of water
author,
i wanna ask u.. Today is my first day… I have ate lot of fruits like melon n pomgranate. N i aslo ate some cumcumbers. I ate them so much to full cz if hunger stikes i ll end up with eaching something outside diet.. So ma que is… Is it ok to eat that much fruits, veggies and soup alot?? i did it because i dont wanna feel hungry n leave diet…
yes, however best to eat the soup as much as you want, that’s the point of it really to help with hunger. It will not affect the diet if you eat a few bowls, in fact it seems to help folks lose better weight.
Hey Author,
This is my 3rd tym of being on gm diet and the results are pretty good. I still have one doubt, taking banana n milk on 4 day, will that not again increase the weight what we have lost in early 3 days. As, banana and milk is recommended to gain weight. Please confirm.
Well I can tell you processed foods, sugar, fake sweeteners, and bad oils cause weight gain. It’s all a part of the bigger plan here and you will be OK. most do amazing on this diet, except the one that east 8 plus bananas. Keep going 🙂
One more thing pls. I will take 5 bananas in form of milk shake. How much sugar has to be added to avoid inc weight? Can i use sugarfree in my shake. Pls advise.
Well on day 4 we say 4 bananas all day, not 5. And why would you want sugar in it? Bananas are so sweet. You can use stevia here and there. Sorry, other fake sweeteners are toxic and cause weight gain funny enough.
Dear Author, have my CAPF medical exam. and got overweight by 7kg. Remedical will be arround in 30days. Already 2days with GM diet plan. I take 2 Chapati at Day and 1in Night along with GM diet plan food.. Now I feel I should stop taking Cahpati.. Question 1) Is it good to add anything with GM diet.. 2) not much variety of Veggi and Fruits in our village, so can I suppliment that with rice(a little) or any other advise form you in my case.
1)No, especially read/chapati. This is wheat FREE! Chapati is doing nothing for your health only hurting you.
2) No rice supplement for veg, they are not the same at all.
Thanks Author.. One more question. Can I add atta to my veg soup to give some thikness, and is it veg knoor soup be used?
No, so sorry, atta is just wheat, and unless from a super ancient grain that has not been genetically modified it is really bad for you.
I tried to do GM diet after one and half days I lost my stamina… No strength even after having my lunch. And on third day I was sleeping the first half….
when you cut processed foods you will feel roughed up a few days, but most end up with tons of energy. Also make sure you eat enough, have the soup, eat salt on your meals, etc
Can i have black coffee during gm diet? And boiled plantains on day 4? Also, I want to ask if I can cook the veggies with fish etc but will not eat it… just for flavors? Thanks
I am not a fan of coffee, up to you, no sweetener though unless it’s a little stevia. Plantains are fine day 4. uh, huh, maybe too much oil from the fish, better not.
Is there a limit on how much ripe mangoes can i take on day 1? And is avocado ok?
don’t go too many, say 4. no avocado, loads of fat, good fat though is great just not during the 7 day plan, afterwards go for it.
Oh no i just had avocado this morning and im on my first day… should i restart?
just keep going
I lost half a kilo… regardless of the avocado and the amount of mangoes I took yesterday
By the way our bananas here are like 4 inches long? How much do I take?
7 to 8 of those 🙂
I m on 5th day!!
Can i continue with the plan after 7th day or i should stop and take a break??
take at least a 2 week break. Also, you must make a lifestyle change after as well.
Can i have lemon water with a honey? Im on my 3rd day
No, you can have lemon water, there is nothing good/healthy about about honey lemon water.
What about the lemon maple syrup and cayenne pepper master cleanse? Is it bad for health?
That’s a specific cleanse, so when you cleanse yes, but that cleanse is not meant to be a daily thing. Sorry. You can take lemon water daily, even some cayenne pills but you don’t want maple syrup every single day.
May i know a alternative for beef on 5th and 6thday, can i take chicken on behalf of tat?
Also could you please let me know the substitutes for tomatoes?
chicken is great, make sure you do some dark meat as well. tomato? uh, eggplant, zucchini, squash, something like that, just do you best

Hang in there 🙂
Keep in mind a cheat cannot be replaced by exercise, it just does not work that way like is shown on TV.
Hi M on my 2nd day!!
Have taken green tea flavored with honey and lime is it oki?
no, not it’s not at all, you can have tea, only sweetener is stevia
Didnt lose weight on my first day… i just had plain black coffee… no sugar… watermelons… coconut….pineapple and mango smoothie yesterday… so disappointed 🙁
hang in there, just one day. Also, coconut is not allowed at all day 1. Let’s see what happens day 2.
ok
today is 5th cheat definitely can’t be replaced with walking understood.
but
pl. suggest any form of namkeen for my next plan.
namkeen, salty snacks, sorry no on this plan. Cannot imagine these are healthy for you. what are you used to eating?
Can mung bean soup be taken on day 2
no, sorry.
Ive read in the previous comments we cant have coconut avocado what fruits and veggies are anot allowed? Tnx
avocado, too much corn (should only eat a little, too many peas and too many carrots. Diversify if you can.
HI author,
I have read in the previous comments that i can skip beef and instand of that i can have chicken or fish.so can i use oil to cook that? if so which oil.? and can i have chichen or fish along with white rice?
and plz let me know how many min i have to exercise(walking) during the GM diet.
And as i dont like soups can i skip it ?
you can. you can a little yes. olive, coconut or palm oil. maybe ghee. never use veggie oils, canola, sunflower, etc. no rice with the meat meals unless it says. you can skip the soup. Exercise is up to each person, so up to you really. I recommend HIT training.
hello author,
is it compulsory to giv 2 weeks break between each gm diet plan?? plz let me know after successfull completion of 1st week of GM diet plan can i give 2 to 3 days of break and start again the 2nd gm plan for best.??
it really is. but during that time, follow a plan similar to day 6, balanced meals, you need a protein, a starch, good carbs, veg, couple of fruit servings day etc.
hello author,
thanx for the reply.
Im.on day 4 havent lost any weight….i followed the plan strictly
what did you eat day 2 and 3. May help help me…
can i have normal tea(not green tea or black tea !) once everyday during gm diet ?
normal as in orange pekoe? no, never, it does not count as water it is not an herbal tea. No health benefits at all.
hello author, can we eat onions and tomatoes everyday ??
tomato only when we say, onion, yes but in moderation as a seasoning to a dish so to speak.
so tomato is not to be eaten on which day?
and is it true that we cant eat fruit on 5th 6th and 7th day ?
When you read each day it will tell ya 😉
You can have fruit when we say have fruit, please read each day carefully, takes a few minutes.

hello author,
can we have any of these rice,cheppati,sugar,oil food on the day before i start the gm diet.or is there any restriction even on that day?
no, to me best to start it off healthier, maybe even a 3 day prep eating good balanced meals with good protein, good fat, some veg, fruit and good carbs like potato, rice, etc.
Hi author,
I am currently doing this diet and I am on day 4th, On 2nd day i took sweet corns , should I start again?
no keep going, corn is not the best choice, technically a grain, and so over done, genetically modified and void of any good nutrition. Keep going though 🙂
Hi friend…im on 3rd day of GM diet.. i want to make clear that.. on the 5th day we are adding veg soup… can we add the desire amount of salt in it ???
Hello 🙂
yes you can have salt as you are allowed or desire. You can have pepper, herbs, spices as well.
thanks alot friend..
I have been following this diet strictly since April 2014 and till now I have lost 15 kgs but off late I have experienced lots of hair loss. My hair have become very weak and it breaks off easily too. I drink more than 15 glass of lemon flavored water every day to keep myself hydrated. Please advise.
You may need to see a doc. Why are you following this plan so much? You can only follow it once a month. It is not meant to be followed consecutively. Please let me know? It is a 7 day plan, not 30 days. You may be drinking too much water, too much water flushes all of the good minerals from your body.
Iam 37 years oldI have hypertension, Tyrod and arthritis since 12 years I can do this diet
I suggest looking at the top 2 posts on this page. http://gmdietforums.com/forums/gm-diet-after-day-7.6/
I will say you should never have gluten or sugar. If you are eating those you are really harming your health further.
i author next month am undergoing my sis weeding… need to seriously weight lose… am 5.1 and am 60… shall i do this for 2 weeks???????? plz do reply fast
you can only do it once every 2 weeks or so a time or 2. You can yes, but you need a lifestyle change during that time as well to help, checkout the top to posts on this page. http://gmdietforums.com/forums/gm-diet-after-day-7.6/
I am on second day of this diet pl As per the plan Fifth n sixth day include beef. Can I replace it with chicken or any other substitute?
yes, chicken or fish will work.
Hi!!!!!!! Iam 29 years old ….. I have diabetes and take the medicines… (diamicron 30mg and 3 times glucophage)… should I follow this diet without taking the medicines???? I actually have started the diet and today is my fourth day… since yesterday I just started feeling abnormal…. I checked today and my sugar was high…. for your info,, I have followed the diet ditto…. and today even I have jst taken 2 bananas with skimmed milk and soup….. then why my sugar is high???? is it because this deit is not for me or does improper sleep and stress is the factor ??? If this diet cannot work for me than shud I stop it or shud I take the medicines with it???? please reply me asap… Im very dipressed……….
Hello
WOW, hang in there. First, based on what your doc says, should you be doing this diet? Meaning it seems to me, opinion here, not every day is suitable for someone in your position. I mean on the forum, someone did it with diabetes, lost lots of weight and now follows a balanced plan sugar and gluten free. Then reported their diabetes meds went down a ton. We have balanced eating plans here, top 2 posts, but you have to make sure your doc is OK with these per your condition. http://gmdietforums.com/forums/gm-diet-after-day-7.6/
Basically . my question is that even I have started using the diet without asking the doctor…. should I take my medicines or continue it without the medicines????
I would never tell anyone to stop meds, only a doc can do that, You can take meds and be on this program assuming the foods in this program are OK with your doc and are not an issue with the meds.
Thanks tons……… I have realised that I should not have left the medicines without prescription….. 🙁 :(….. better luck next time…..
I am starting this diet with my parents my dad is diabetic, and I am little cautious for him. Do you suggest any do’s and don’t s for him. Also doctor has prescribed him to have 5 soaked almonds with black pepper, which I don’t want him to stop. Rest if the diet is not clubbed with excersise will the effect be very minimal. Awaiting for your quick response because we are starting from today.
Many thanks
balance to me is the key. I posted a plan or 2 in the forum, in the after 7th day forum. Also here are some notes from someone who had diabetes and did it. Never stop what you doctor says. He will just have to do those on the diet. You just need to look at this plan and does it line up with what he can have or the doc says.

https://www.gmdietworks.com/general-motors-diet/gm-diet-vegetarian.html
Hey is tat ok if I have white ryc instead of brown ryc. . .
Opinion. (not instant) it is better, it’s a simple starch with no anti nutrients.
Sorry author . . .I didn’t get you can I have or not
My fault, yes you can, to me white rice is better, an organic jasmine, basmati, just don’t do instant if you can.
hi … i followed the gm diet plan and after some days i had a problem of hairfall so want can i do to overcome this drawback while following this gm diet
Hello
for hair to fall out so fast on a nutrient dense diet like this with good oil in the soup also, you must be dealing with underlying health issues like possibly a thyroid issue. Please seek a good doctor and get tested. Stop dieting also and eat nutrient dense good foods, balanced with good fats and protein with good carbs. Clearly your body is struggling and the diet is not the issue.
I am 10 Lbs lighter at the beginning of 5th day. Works like charm. Changed my life.
Awesome!!!! Congrats…
Hi,
My brother had introduced this diet to me. And I feel good tht he did. I love fruits nd veges. My weight on the first day was 73.4kgs nd on 5day it was 70.8kgs. We have festival time here in India,but still I did eat only sprouts,cumcumber,tomatoes,twice on day 5, one fourth rice (not brown) with spinach bhaji cooked in a tsp of olive oil,a cup of curd and 15glasses of water ,had a small Prasad (food tht u give to people after praying to God) ,and my weight today is 71.1kgs. Wht do u think I did wrong. Or this happens.
Can I continue this diet as I need to reach 60kgs after 2-3days gap. Or pls let me know how shld I do this diet.
Awaiting a reply.
Thanks,Puja.
Well, those foods are not allowed and will really mess with the diet. I understand you have religious connections/beliefs ad did what you had to do, however the foods you listed are not allowed those 7 days. Either stop and start in a week or so or finish and wait at least 2 weeks to begin again. We do give a great plan here, the top 2 posts if you need a great loss diet in between.

Hi
What can replace papaya and milk ? I don’t like eating them. Also if we can eat soup every day what are the best components.Another thing is this suitable for children younger than 14? Thanks
As a parent I would first have my child make a lifestyle change before a diet. Butt hat is up to a parent. Look at this plan and see what would be wrong if a 13 year old did it. Papaya, just pick another fruit. Milk, do almond or a lite coconut milk.
Hello, sorry missed the soup portion. Calorie/carb less veg. These veg can be eaten as much as possible and will not affect the diet. Cabbage, celery, broccoli, cauliflower, a few green beans, you do get a little tomato, some onion, etc. Don’t use winter squashes, etc.
Thank you
Please reply to the previous question regarding the components of soup..Thanks
Hi I had avocado at my first day is that wrong? and I skipped potato at the second day
Then sorry to say you are not following this plan at all. No avocado (they are very good for you after this diet) and that potato was a key food with the butter/fat. You may want to start over and read each day carefully and follow.
hi i started gm diet today.
please suggest me the replacement of milk ,i dint like it.
and how much paneer i can eat in day5 6 7
can i eat 1 chapati instead of brown rice
can i eat black eye peas instead of red kidney beans
please give me any other suggestions.
thanks anjali
Almond milk works. No wheat, no chapati, it’s not the same. Unless you want to ruin the program then eat bread. White rice is fine though. You can have beans as a meat replacement with some good fat added like ghee. Paneer? A bowl of it or so.
oh this is an unbeliavable diet I had my diet compleyed well and lost 11kgs it real works,now I have lost all that craving I used to have before and Im now very aware of my intake everyday. In addition my west line reduced too

Hi Can I do GM diet during my periods?? please help answer soon.
you can, however with hormones they can throw the weight loss off and it may not be as good. Best to wait until you are done a day or so after then do it if you can 🙂
I lost only 1 kg in first three days even I have followed the diet perfectly
I don’t knw y is it so
D only thing I changed in d diet plan is dat I had tomato soup on the 3rd day
Is dis d reason i didn’t lose d weight

not necessarily on the soup. Although, what was in the soup? I assume it was not just tomato. What did you eat day 2? What time of the day do you weigh yourself?
The soup was of tomato n cabbage
n on the day 2 I had 1 boiled potato in d breakfast den in d lunch I had mix boiled vegetable n in d evening i had cucumber n tomatoes
N I weigh during morning
All is good then. Hope you had some good fat with that potato, it’s a huge help to lose weight. You need fat to lose fat in most cases, especially that day.
Can u plzzzz hlp me

well meat and tomato really 🙂
If you are vegetarian go with some eggs and legumes would work to replace meat as well with some good fat added.
Thnkuuuu

Same on the proteins. However you get a snack that day. Basically mix in some veg, grill then etc and eat with your meals. No tubers, potato, etc though.
I have plannd to hav
Sprouts in breakfast
Vegetable pulao (white rice)with less oil in lunch
Paneer in evening snacks & again sprouts in dinner

Bt itz actually not so hard
I used to do aerobics , trade mill, side exercise

I weigh during morning
Just to clarify you have to weigh right when you wake up, after going to the bathroom before you eat or drink anything. That is vital to knowing your true weight.
That how I weigh exactly
good, just making sure
Plzzz tell me now if m not making any mistakes den y m not loosing my weight
m very upset
first hang in there 🙂
day 6 seems like too little food. Did you have any fat with any of the meals day 5 and 6? Where are the vegetables day 5, especially tomato.
Day 5 is 3 meals, day 6 is 3 plus a snack
Every meal needs good fat. meat has good fat, so the replacement should as well. The fat is needed to lose weight big time.
According to you what kind of fat shud I hav exactly what to eat
Well meat has fat, would the replacement not have fat as well??????
Olive oil, ghee, butter…
Plzzzz tell what exactly I can hav today ( 7th day )
We already did, please read the page carefully.

Salt is fine as you prefer… too much salt can cause some temporary water weight gain, but it’s not real weight gain. add salt as you like and spices/pepper as well.
I didnt know about peas.. 🙁
so i had a small cup of peas and sprouts!
Is that okay?
Not really but at the same time you will be fine, keep rolling. When you say sprouts, do you mean the long green kind or are you talking beans with a tiny sprout out of the end?
Green grams with tiny white sprouts at the end!
Yah, these cannot be eaten unless they are as a meat replacement, These are technically still beans, just sprouted So basically they are healthier beans because they are sprouted.
So basically i have wrecked up my entire day 2??? 🙁
Well legumes/beans are high in carbs and have protein, so they are not like at all a normal veg. Sprouts here are pure green sprouts and are a veg. However I am a foodie, I would sprout my beans before eating, they are so healthy.
Keep rolling though 🙂
Can I eat eddoe or sweetpotato on vegetable day?
Great after the diet as a good starch/carb, but not during the diet unless it’s your potato sub for morning day 2.
Hi author
Can I continue gm diet without any gap?
Reply asap.
technically you can try it. I recommend a minimum 2 week wait.
I have to loose 15 kg in a month. may I continue this diet plan for whole month
I don’t recommend it.
I am on 3rd day… I had 1 cup of coffee every morning… Ll it effect diet plan ?i ll not have any weight loss becoz of that ?
Do you sweeten it? If so yes. If not, then not sure, I am not big on coffee for many reason, however you should be OK with black coffee.
Can i have fruits on day 5,6,7 instead of vegetables ?
No, they are not the same at all.
Still i don’t see any weight loss …:(
When do you weigh? What have you eaten day 2 and 4?
I am GM diet starting today 🙂
can i have grean tea in between?? reply fast…
Good luck.
Tea is fine now sweetener unless it’s stevia.
can i add chicken stock in soup ?
stock soups are great. but this soup is meant to not have it so now for a reason. Sorry.
hi, i was just wandering, when i finished the diet i lost a good 3.5kgs, so im gonna wait another few weeks before i do it, but will i still lose the same sort of weight?
Hello, as you lose weight, your losses each time you do any diet will reduce at some point. So it can vary. It depends on your total weight currently.
i used stock i m on 2nd day shall i contiune plan or shall i quite the diet plan and restrt it ?
No, keep rolling….
ok thanx auther but i didnot loss any weight till now
🙁
Yah, like I said bone soup is awesome. But the point of that soup is that it has little fat and is very base nutritionally, it’s high in fiber and has little to no carbs. If you were eating lots of it, start over.
Can v do dis plan during our menstrual cycle? If yes how vl i loose weight as told in the plan ?
You can, but hormones c al alter the actual weight lost. Can be tougher.
Hi,
i am following the diet and i am on day 2. I have a mild headache from morning. also i had a cup of boiled pea as i did not know that it is not allowed. also can i have cold coffee on day 4 without sugar? i hate plain milk.
awaiting reply
Thanks.
Peas, a few are OK technically. The issue with peas are that they are nutritionally different than most veg, and people only tend to eat corn, peas and carrots. yes on coffee. you can do almond milk or a lite coconut milk.
Do i have to repeat my diet if on day 3 i cheated by eating a small piece of escalope (fried chicken) although day 1 and day 2 i followed it strictly and now im in day 4 . Will i lose weight ori have to repeat
Up to you, if it had breading/wheat, you will struggle likely.
Yes it has , what do you mean by struggle ? Do i have to repeat it ? And thank u for answering
Well wheat is beyond bad for you and causes weight gain to just name 1 issue.
Struggles means that these foods first have triggers that can cause the body to stop in weight loss and detox. What may seem like a small cheat can actually throw you off for a day to several. Hang in there 🙂
Oh my god i am now in my fifth day and i really want to lose weight ? What do you suggest i should do ? I struggles these five days for nothing ,
I suggest taking a 2 or 3 day break, eat good foods, go gluten and sugar free at least then start over,
I have completed 6th day today and lost 4.0 kgs , I want to continue this diet plan for next two or three weeks , does this pose any health side effects , while i will remain taking proper proteins ,minerals and 4-liters daily water intake
nice loss.
well doing the diet means no protein for first 4 days really. some will do it back to back once. No more than that, I would wait 2 weeks after second round.
I am on my 4 day of my GM diet and I got menstrual cycle. Should continue my diet or not
Sure, you should be OK 🙂
Hi,
Is this diet suitable for diabetic patients ?
Please advice
up to you and your doc
read here… http://gmdietforums.com/threads/diabetic.93/
Hi, i am using cholestrol tablets and aspirin from last 2 weeks and today is my 1st day of GM diet. Is the medicine affect the diet? Can i reduse my weight?
Well possibly, however never stop unless your doc says to.. Why do you take cholesterol meds
I have high cholestrol level (total Cholestrol 10.3mmol/L and LDL 7.2mmol/L.). My hight is 180 Cm and weight is 104.5kg.
It is my second day of GM diet and i check my weight today evening and reduse 1kg
Well you cannot weigh in the evening, it mus be first thing on the morning, right when you wake after going potty, before you eat or drink a thing. So that to get your true weight.
Hi,
Yesturday was my 7th day of GM diet. Today evening i check my weight and 96.6kg ( it was 104.5kg) thank you GM diet…… After one week i will repeat the diet again. my target is 80 kg.
Awesome news….
can i continue next week of gm diet or should i have to take a break and eat a normal food….please help me…i will wait for your reply
Take a break, eat normal yet healthy foods, Try and stay gluten and sugar free.
i took a cup of tea in the morning with little milk and sugar and little dal say 4 to five spoons for salt will it harm
Yes, sorry. Sugar is toxic and a weight gainer. You cannot drink it. It;s even worse then.
Hi, I started the gm diet plan from today itself so just wanted to know….is there any side effects of Following this…
not that I know of, unless you have underlying health issues.
Hi can I have a cup of tea daily…reply soon
herbal tea yes, no sweetener unless it’s stevia.
Can I have salmon on day 5 instead of beef ..
Also I don’t follow timings but I follow the diet strictly .
Today on day 4and am feeling quiet acidic .yet hungry
Have had 3bananas and 2 glasses of coffee and and 1 banana shake
yes on salmon, coffee is totally acidic and the milk can cause that.
Hey hi,
I have completed my first day
i ate 4-5 stawberries,grapes,2 chiku,1 orange , 1 apple, 1 coconut water,one glass hot water with lime juice.
Now i have started with my day 2
ate boiled potato with bit butter and salt in it.
Please advise m i overeating, should i reduce my intake.
I am drinking lot of water though.
You are doing great, actually less is not better, eat as much as we say and then you can even add the soup.
I have tried to follow this diet twice earlier, but always somehow i fail to continue on 5th day. First time i did, After first 4 days i lost 3kgs. But after 1 month i gained back 2 kgs. Its my fault as i didnt maitained any diet and went back to all junk and everything.
Though again i started from today. Wish me luck. This time i really want to complete this diet. Current weight is 63kgs.
Good luck, hang in there, it’s tough making a lifestyle change afterwards.
Hi ,
I am on my 2nd day now…Is it mandatory to take soups on 5th and 6th day…can i take it as raw vegetables and sprouts…Plz do suggest me
You do not have to have soups. Sprouts? What kind? Are you talking beans with a tiny sprout? If so those are your legume. Or do you mean long green sprouts?
Hi,
today I m on my third day…I mean chana dal as sprouts.Can i take it?
And one more thing 🙁 i checked my weight today,I gained one kg.
Should i continue or stop it and i feel depressed
No, they are not vegetables, they are pure carbs and are a legume. What did you eat day do and when do you weigh?
Third day i ate pomegranate 1,orange 1, and beetroot morning
then afternoon i had gauva,grapes,goose berries
night i had pomegranate and orange.
Today I m on my fourth day and i m having bananas and milk
Did you eat any veg day 3? You are not following the plan.
I weighed evening on my third day
Your true weight is in the morning, when you wake before you eat or drink anything and after you go potty. You cannot weigh in the evening, all the food and water you have eaten. That’s the issue.
first week i lost 4kg weight.next week started today is forth day but i cant loose 1kg whyyyyyyy
what was your gap, number of days in between plans?
I am planning to have tomato soup tomorrow.Is that okay.Can i have anything else if i feel hungry
?if so wat should i eat???
Please suggest me if i can take vegetables instead of soup for sixth day ..
And also where can i get the exact menu for sixth and sventh day..bcos different sites post different things.
What’s in the soup? vegetables are fine day 6 instead of soup. Sorry? You are reading other plans? We posted the meal plan day 6 and 7 on GMDIETWORKS.com, if you need answers to the other plans ask that site. Likely nobody will answer, those are fake plans with ZERO support. No wonder you struggle here,m you are likely not even following our plan.
I took vegetables on third day but dominantly i took fruits….
I m now on fifth day and i m drinking tomato soup today..and in that sopu i added garlic and curry leaves a little and a teaspoon of oil 🙁
Is it bad??I checked out for sixth and seventh day and I wil follow it for sure
you cannot take dominant fruits day 3.
what protein did you have day 3? The oil, garlic, etc is fine in the soup
And finally I completed my seven day plan yesterday…I lost 3.5kgs totally..Thank yu for ur guidance
Now I would like to restart.What is right time to restart??What food should i be eating in the time between to maintain my weight
But my body is become too hot..Is there any remedy to reduce it???
Next tym i ll follow more strictly..My doubt is all say second tym we dont reduce as much weight as we did for first tym ..Is tat so..?????
To maintain? No gluten (wheat especially) or sugar. You need good fats! So have balanced meals with carbs, protein and good fat. Eat lots of veg. I talk about hat here some. What do you meany our body is too hot, just need some clarification. http://gmdietforums.com/threads/vegetarian-sample-plan-after-gm-diet.313/
sir plz answer….
Be patient please, I am on a different time zone and as you can see always answer!
My 72 year old mother is on the GM Diet for the first time and just told me she’s still taking her fiber at night (Konsyl with water). Is this ok during the diet or should she discontinue it for the week she’s on the diet? She thinks she will be constipated if she doesn’t take it.
She can take fiber, but that fiber has maltodextrin, a complete waste and no good for you.
Thank you! Would you recommend another one?

you can do the 7 day plan, then wait 2 weeks then do it again. In between that time make some lifestyle changes. Go gluten and sugar free. Cut processed foods, eat pure foods, no foods with chemicals, fillers, etc.

Hello
salt, pepper, spices, etc can be eaten for sure. Your body needs salt.
Hi! I am an 18 year old girl in high school and I am starting this diet tomorrow.
I exercise 3 times a week at school and most of the time 3 times a week at the gym. Should I still be exercising this much while being on the diet? Will I have less energy in fitness class at school? And will this diet make me less energetic and focused at school?
And would you recommend weight lifting or cardio?
Thanks in advance 🙂
Hello 🙂
the first 4 days be very careful, you are on more of a detox plan. Also no protein means do not tear down muscle or you could cause problems. You need the protein to rebuild after a workout. So be very light with the workout.
hey.. I am 33 yrs with around 65 kg and 5feet. My tummy is bloated and it create lot of problems. IS GM diet helpful for my tummy fat reduction? IS it essential to do exercise while GM diet? I dont get time to go for walk in the morning or evening. …
Hello… You should not heavy exercise on this plan, keep it light. Your tummy is like that mostly and likely because of sugar and wheat. So yes this plan can help it’s gluten and sugar free…
Hey Thnx for the reply…but I am having 2 chapti with Tea, 2 chapati with veggie for lunch and 2 chapati with veggi, fish curry at night as dinner. I dont have rice at all. now if you said’Your tummy is like that mostly and likely because of sugar and wheat.’ then what should I eat?
Well now you can see what your problem is with your weight and how to fix it. There are loads of things and ways to eat without wheat. Are you saying there’s not? I eat happily and joyfully with ZERO grains, pure meat and veg with good fats. My carbs and a little fruit and plantains, The choice is yours.
Also Plz clarify that does 2-3 cloves of raw garlic in the morning is helpful to reduce belly fat.?
I call those tricks. My suggestion, drop the tricks and make a lifestyle change. I understand wanting helps such as those, but it’s in how you eat not is those little things you will find success.
Ohhh.. That means I am having extra wheat !! ? :-O so… can you suggest me something else… plz.. I have noticed that even those 2 chapati’s at dinner are heavy on my stomach .. I still feels bloated even with those 2 chapatis…. recently i have started a spoon of white rice, not every day but 2-3 in a week.. I feel my stomach cool when ever I have little rice.
Plz suggest me
Yea, wheat is toxic, your body cannot digest it properly, it gets worse but I won’t go into that here.
White rice, a good organic basmati or jasmine, they are a simple starch. So assuming you have no issue with rice (I have tested ad I do) it is easier to digest and works as a good carb. The key is finding how many carbs you do a day. For me I vary it between 100 to 200 a day. My wife under 85…
I am having on day 3 of gm diet and having muscle pulls in my legs. Is it just a consequence of the diet
Also, i do not like soup so can i continue only on veggies and fruits.
You do not have to have soup. are you working out?
Its my 5th day of gm diet and m loving it but I got into periods should I continue or stop it …only 2 days are felt. What should I do?
Nice to hear you are OK on it
Just keep going…
I did this gm diet.i lost 2 kg weight day 5 ..but on the day 8 I checked my weight increased by 1 kg..so in whole diet plan in 7 days I lost only 1 kg..why this is so…and I had KFC chicken burger on day 5 and day 6 .bcaz of this I increase my weight. .
KFC!!!! Oh my, do you have nay idea what’s in that? Yes, of course your weight increased. If you are eating fast food like that, just understand you health and weight cannot improve much if any at all. This is a pure whole foods natural plan.
I have followed strictly gm diet but lost only 0.5 kg the only thing i did is i had 2 egg, is it bcoz of this i had lost very less ?
what did you eat day 2 and 3? When do you weigh? Eggs are not allowed the first 4 days so yes they can cause an issue. It’s detox those days.
I didnt expect that bcoz of taking egg white on 2nd and 3 rd i didnt loose any weight
Why not, it’s not written into the plan for a reason. Eggs break the detox cycle thus ruining day 2, Plus my guess based on what you are telling me is that you are not following the plan correctly most days. There were more errors on day 2 other than the egg.
I checked my weight on 8th day, i has egg white on 2 nd and 3 rd, i lost only 0.5 kg
pleae follow the program a we write it.
On 2nd day i ate vegetables and one egg white and on 3 rd day i ate fruits,vegetables and one egg white. The reason why i had egg white is i came to know that threre is no fat and only proteins in egg white
It does not matter if it is fat free, you missed the point of day 2. Did you have potato for breakfast. You will save yourself a ton of grief if you follow what we wrote.
Hi
I am following gm diet , am on6th day. Feeling light, but not much of weight reduction. Am a vegetarian, had chick peas with tomatoes on day 5. Today had green gram in the breakfast and rice with veggies for lunch. Dinner planning to have soup. For day 6 its rice, fruits and veggies. Since rice is allowed can I have idly, dosa with little oil?
day 5 did you have good fat with the dishes? Meat has fat, your replacement must have it! If not you basically ate pure carbs with ZERO balance of fat.
Sorry it was for day 7 I enquired. Is there weight reduction after 5th day?
There sure should be in most cases.
I had 2 tomatoes sauted in coconut oil
I had 2 tomatoes sauted in coconut oil for day 5. And my other query, can we have dosa, idly on day 7?
you can have rice and veg, so if those are made that way then yes.
Plz tell me i will eat only egg and brown rice . Can u tell me exactly what to eat on day 5,6 and 7
3 eggs per meal max and about 1/2 cup of cooked rice per meal. DO not eat eggs with rice tough.
3 eggs per meal means 3 eggs for breakfast , 3 eggs for lunch and 3 eggs for dinner ? Is it correct, egg with white or including yolk, when to eat brown rice and if we should take brownrice what should we have with brown rice and when to take tomatoes
yes the yolk, however you can do 2 eggs if you like. no rice if you do eggs.
Hi, I have a problem on my first and 3rd day. I don’t eat fruits! usually i have hyper acidity/ stomachache on this days. what fruits can I eat to prevent this. thanks
Not sure, if you cannot have fruits then it is tough, Have you tried melons. Just replace with tomato if you can, carrot, cucumber, etc.

Trust me, if you are eating processed foods, wheat, junk food etc, that will ruin your health, This is a whole foods natural plan. What you need to ask is what is the “mechanism” in this diet that causes that? I can list a ton of mechanisms in a standard diet hat causes those types of health issues. hang in there, be kind to your parents 🙂
day 1 any fruit but bananas. Day 2 start with a potato and good fat like ghee or olive oil. Then veg do most but NO peas, corn or carrots.

I am going to start day 4 of 4 bananas and 2 glasses of milk and soup
Hopefully I should lose something
Hello
You will feel tired likely with yoga, you cannot tear down the muscles on a detox plan the first few days here.
When do you weigh. The only issue was the tomato soup day 3, what as in it?
I weigh in the morning, after I am done with my bathroom routines and before eating anything.
It was not an only tomato soup.
I had stewed tomato, cabbage and onions with 2 cloves of garlic and little bit ginger and chillies.
Added some salt, pepper and some spices ( chilli powder and coriander powder)
Hi,
I have 2 more questions:
1. Can I add tomatoes in today’s soup (day 4 I.e.)
2. Can I eat a combination of eggs and chicken is n day 5 and 6. Like 3 eggs for breakfast and chicken for lunch and dinner
hello
1) sure
2) sure thing 🙂
Hello , firstly I lost 3.8kg weight with GM Diet. After7days I am doing it again. today is my day 5 morning i lost only 0.8gram weight .this time I am doing v v strictly but …… i am v v sad with my result. 🙂 🙂
be patient, it’s a 7 day plan, each day can vary for a ton of reasons.

n i have taken a orange with salad for lunch…is it worth?
worth what?
i mean is it ok to have orange with salad on 2nd day
try and stick to veg only…
Hello sir ,Can I do 5day and from 6th day can start day1.bcoz there is any function in my family and i want to loss more weight.Because I done it three times every time last 2day was no weight loss for me.
seems like based on your other post you need a break… try and stay gluten and sugar free during the break.
firstly I lost 3.8kg weight with GM Diet. After one day gap done GM diet but lost only 1.5kg.After7days done.and lost 0.8grm.
best to wait 2 weeks for a reason. after round 1 to round 2 a week gap is OK only then.
Hello sir ,Today is my Day2 .I eaten indian spices kachori made with (all propose flour ). should i start it again.
I am v sad after eaten . how we cheat us for tongue taste
Well flour is not a spice, it’s a junk carb. So you can have pure dried herbs and spices. Pure meaning no additives. Yes start again 🙂
Thank you

Hello Author,
I am on 6th day of GM diet , n lost only 1 kg this time.
Only first 3 days reduce the weight ??
Is der any chances of reducing in last 2 days?
I am so much frustrated , i am not loosing after following diet so strictly.
please advise.
what did you eat day 4 and 5? yes of course you can still lose weight.
4th day :
I had 4 bananas and 3 glass of milk
-2 banana with 1 glass of milk in morning
-1 banana for lunch
-1 banana + 1 glass of milk evening
-1 glass of milk night
5th day :
-1 cup brown rice cooked in 3 tomato puree with little olive oil in morning
-1 egg omlet (1 onion,1 tomato) lunch
-dinner (same as morning)
i have reduced 1.5 kgs only this time .
Is this because of summer here in India?Is this the reason?
losses can vary for many reasons. finish it out and let’s see how you do.
Hi Kevin,
I am a big fan of GM Diet. I’ve lost all most 17 kgs by doing this diet along with exercise. Today is my 3 rd day of GM diet and I haven’t lost a single pound yet :-(. My periods are also going on. Its really demotivating when you try hard and don’t get any result.
Regards,
Nidhi
periods make it hard, your hormones will mess things up usually.
Completed my 7 days of GM diet. Strictly followed my diet plans. I check my weight reduced only 1kg. But im feeling very light. Feeling very bad about my result. Pls advice
when do you weigh? what did you eat days 2 and 5?
I started my diet on monday i checked my weight on Sunday. On 2nd day i had Soup and vegetables. On 5th day Tomoto salad with Red kidney beans and Tomato Soup
you cannot have tomato soup day 5. it is not the same at all as raw tomato or lightly cooked tomato. Also no potato day 2 with good fat or good fat day 5 is why you did not lose weight, you have to follow the program as we have it here. So it was not followed strictly at all. Sorry. Plus your true weight starting is when you wake day 1, before you eat or drink after going potty.
Have to eat potato (Good fat) on day 2? Which is good fat Instead of potato?
potato has no fat so add some like ghee or olive oil
Ill try again which u given the program here. Thanks for your advice
And also pls suggest any other food instead of Raw tomato
another base veg, onion, peppers, cucumber or all of them for example.
Can u pls tel me (vegetarian) 7 days diet plan. Instead of Raw vegetable items.
Shall i eat mango on day 1?
Boiled or cooked Carrot and beetroot on day 2? Pls advice
Sure, other than days 5 and 6 it is vegetarian. look at the bottom of the site for the vegetarian help. a mango day 1 is fine. no carrot and not too much beets, mix it up.
on the 2nd day i had roasted chicken with salad from subway, is it ok or i have to restart it.
Well nothing from Subway is OK, have you actually read the ingredients as to what you are eating? did you have dressing? up to you whether or not to start over. I hop the rest of the plan goes well.
Hello, I would like to know if I can continue
Doing the diet for a month or 2? I already finish my first week and I lost 13 pounds, now I’m on my 2nd week 2nd day feeling great and motivated to continue to reach my goal .. I’m also working out in a daily basis doing 40mins of cardio and some other stuff at the gym.. Is it healthy to continue until I reach my goal? Right at this moment I’m at 88kg and 5″7 tall., my goal it’s 70kg! I will appreciate if you reply to me.
Thank you in advance.
Stephanya.
do you workout daily? if so when does your body rest and recover? I say you need a break in between each plan. you can always follow something like this, look at the top 2 posts. http://gmdietforums.com/forums/gm-diet-after-day-7.6/
I take breaks for weightsweido them may be 2 times a week its all I do.. But I’m just doing the cardio everyday 20mins treadmill and the other 20 elliptical
Great news 🙂
Is there is any age limit for this diet plan?
Limits are up to you and a doc and a parent if you are under 18 🙂
I hv a little hair loss problem…so following this diet will effect my hair loss problem or not?
if so then you have a serious underlying health problem so sure a 3 day detox plan could cause it to be worse. be careful
so what you say? I should take a try or not?
WOW< tough with hair loss, have you asked a doc or do you see any foods on the list that would be bad for you?
Sorry to bother you again.. But u didn’t really answer my question.. If it’s OK to continue until I reach my goal? .. The most important thing for me is that I feel great about it and I don’t feel sick or weak at all I’m doing good n I would say this is the best diet plan I have ever follow in my life I’m really motivated and happy my mood it’s better my self-esteem it’s getting much better n I would totally Recommend the gm diet to ppl.. I’m telling everyone about it.. There’s already 5 of my friends trying it too ☺ so thank you so much!!
Ps: I would definitely keep you post it with my results. Have a great day
N I appreciate your time for messaging me back.
**Please answer the question I did ask about continuing with the diet until I reach my goal**
no bother, you cannot do this plan continuously, it needs a break.
However, look at days 5 and 6, you can eat like that though, making sure (if your are a meat eater) you add some carbs to the meals. However if you are vegetarian, days 5 and 6 will have carbs because you do rice or legumes. That way you are cutting sugar and gluten and snacks and eating a more balanced plan.
Thank you so much for replying.
I will definitely take a break after one month.
The problem is not so much need to consult a doctor and I do not find any food bad for my hair
IST TIME I USE GM PLAN REDUCE WEIGHT 69 KG TO 65 KG (4 KG) THEN 2ND TIME START AFTER 3 DAYS NOW I WILL THE WEIGHT ITS INCREASE IT COMES 71 KGS. BUT WEIGHT IS INCREASE IN SEEING BODY FIGURE REDUCE THE FAT ON STOMUCK.

Hi there: Started this plan yesterday, wanted to confirm if taking vitamin supplement (opti- women)

Hi..I’m going to start this diet plan from tommorow…!! Can I lose 3-4kg?? Plzz rly..and I’m doing cardio & some workouts in gym…can I continue exercises by doing this plan???
Stick to the plan and i hope you can. Do not over exercise, the first few days have no protein to rebuild torn down muscle.
And I want to loss my belly fat& buttocks fat..this diet plan will help??
Well that is yup to you. What I mean, this is a 7 day diet. You will get a great start into weight loss and a healthy lifestyle change. At that point what do you do? DO you eat as you sued to? etc… Also if you carry most of your weight there, it can be a sign of underlying health issues.
Can I do elliptical machine for 20minutes?
seems intense, up to you really to test the waters
hello
I m going to start the GM diet plan from tomorrow.
but I have some question s.I have pcod .during suffering this disease I gain 80 KGS weight with so many problems.(1)- can I get back right body weight with this plan ? I know its not possible with in 7 days. (2)-in 7 days how many weight I will losing after stop diet plan is it possible to gain weight again???? I m not heavy eater. i m not feeling hungry every time. (3)- this diet can I prossed during periods? I take thyronorm tablet every morning in empty stomach. (4)- Can I take medicine in diet week?
plz reply soon .I m starting plan tomorrow.
Never stop meds unless you ask a doc. Well PCOD your hormones are a mess, high testosterone is normal as is high blood pressure, you need an extreme lifestyle change to heal and nurture your body. Weight loss varies per person and per health conditions, however are you just going to eat as you do now after the plan?
thanks for reply. today is first day of gm diet plan. At morning I take a cup of green tea without sugar .lunch was fruits slices as per plan. that’s OK ?can u help me to set diet for normal day ? u suggest I have to change my lifestyle extremely. but how ?

I m feeling little weakness on day one. its natural is not it?

good morning AUTHOR
WHATS UR NAME ?
TODAY IS 2ND DAY OF MY DIETING.AFTER BREAKFIRST WITH BOILED POTATO WITH LITTLE HALF SPOON OF MARGARINE AND PINCH OF SALT FEEL GOOD AND ENERGETIC.
NO WEAKNESS FEEL.AND I WONDER TO FEEL FULL OF STOMACH WITH ONLY A CUP OF POTATO!!!!!!!! NOW I PREPARE BOILED VEGETABLES.JUST BOILED WATER WITH 1 TSP SALT AND DROP IN TO WATER CABBAGE,CARROT ,ASH GOURD,BEANS,ONION ,RIDGE GOURD.ITS PERFECT ?
No, so sorry, this is totally way off. 1) Margarine – pure junk food and bad for your health. No carrot and beans are not a vegetable. I suggest reading each day here very very carefully please. It will make the plan so much better.
I have habit of dri,king hot milk at night can i take it with diet
no sorry bad Idea to do that right before sleeping to me… so at least no on this program.
I HAVE TO QUITE THIS DIET PLAN ON DAY 3. I WENT WRONG WAY.I HAVE LAST QUESTION . ON GM DIET PLAN I SEE MANY WEBSITE. I FOLLOW Indian version of GM PLAN. ACCORDING THIS PLAN I CAN EAT CARROT AND BEANS. I M CONFUSED.
So you are reading other plans but asking questions here? I am totally confused by that. You would have to ask them why they do what they do, although those versions are not real and they offer ZERO support. We don’t say eat legumes/beans here except to replace meat days 5 and 6. Where does it say eat carrot and beans?????? Please read each day carefully here and follow this plan. Sorry, Good Luck…
is it ok for 17 yrs old to take up this diet?
my weight-64
height-165 cm
you would need to ask a parent, look at the foods and see if they are OK as well…
Today is my first day and have lost 1kg. I would pls like to ask if I can roast my vegetables for tomorrow or use soy sauce stir fry with veggies such as cabbage, snow peas and asparagus with baby corn?
hello, no soy sauce only pure dried herbs and spices. very few snow peas, and ZERO baby corn….
Hi,

Hi,
Today is my day 3,and I dont see any weight loss inspite of having tons of water,Please suggest me
when do you weigh? what did you eat day 2? are you having salt?
Hi author,
I am on the Day 4. I am following the plan religiously, My only concern is I had my menses from Day 3. As I did a brilliant job for Day 1 and 2, I dnt stop and wish to continue.
My menses are never a botheration to me, as I do not feel any pain or bloating of Body.
Still I want to know, Is it a must that menses reduce the weight loss? Or it depend person to person.
Day 4 is really very nice, I m full of energy and feeling very light!….I do not want to weight in between, as I might get disappointed, I will weigh On Monday.
Kindly answer my doubts? Thanks!
Nice they do not bother you. Keep going yet your hormones can totally throw your weight loss off. So hang in there and finish strong.
hi , i forgot to gave my feedback…i lost total 3.5 kg on 7 day!… i guess i could hv lost more…if i have not got by menses!
nice losses 🙂
Hi So i started this yesterday. fruit day is my least favorite but i somehow went with it. Loved my baked potato this morning. But as I was going through my day, after lunch time, even after i had my afternoon lettuce salad, i started feeling very weak and I was having tremors and stuff. So ate a slice of brown bread. Felt much better after that. Can i continue with my diet?
Also, day 5 onwards; can I have curd/yogurt? Does this have to be low fat?
Also my water intake has been 2.5-3L in case you’re wondering.
well bread is a diet killer, there is nothing healthy about wheat in fact wheat is a great way to gain weight normally. So it’s up to you. Did you have good fat on the potato or salad?
yes, olive oil
I am 5′ 4” and I weigh 55 kgs. I’m doing this to get rid of the last few kgs and to to detox from my past unhealthy week
Hi evrything was going normal but after day 5 my weight went up. Is it normal? as today is my 5th day
when do you weigh?
any replacement for potatoes??
day 2 breakfast? a starchy carb with good fat needed so do yaws, sweet potato or plantain.
tried this for 7 days (including 1 hour daily walk). exact plan but only lost 6 pounds. how can i lose more?
6 good, what did you eat days 2 and 5?
Hello, today is my last day of this diet.i feel very weakness today can i take some juse.pls repply now
drinking sugary juice is not the answer, however that is up to you.
Hi,

Is it fione to have coconut water to have around 10.pm in night as i was having acidity. I had cucumber & onion salad with garlic paste without butter on day 3…..
I reduced 1.5kg in 3 days..is it fine ths much weight or i should reduce more . Also my cherms date is 18…so does it affect weight
a little good fat like butter is fine with your veg, coconut water is OK, anything right before bed is never a good idea.
you are doing well, when do you weigh? what did you eat day 2? yes hormones can cause you to lose less.
Thanks for ur prompt rerply
Find below my day 2 diet
Morning – potato with oil & salt
Mid Morning – 2 cucumber + 1 tomato
Lunch – cabbage + green pepper+ 1 cucumber salad
Evening – 1 tomato + Coconut water
Dinner – cabbage+green pepper+chilly veg with bit oil & spices
looks good, what kind of oil
I weight today morning…. On 1st day early morning it was 73.96 and today morning it was 72.40
Regular oil …..
Today is my 4 th day of diet.. in dinner will b having 12 to 15 laeves of Pala + 2 to 3 tomato soup…will that b good
Regular oil …..
Today is my 4 th day of diet.. in dinner will b having 12 to 15 leaves of Palak + 2 to 3 tomato soup…will that b good enough
regular oil is pure junk food and will not help with weight loss. do butter ghee or better yet coconut oil
In a day i am almost having 4 to 5 litre water….
wow that’s a bit much.
on day 3 i also had lime water twice with bit salt for energy
good you need it
Ok..instead of oil, i will use Amul Butter….Oil i just used 1/4 tea spoon in entire veg..i guess that will not impact much…because it was hardly few dropys
Today is my 4 th day of diet.. in dinner will b having 12 to 15 leaves of Palak + 2 to 3 tomato soup…will that b good enough
well then you are not getting near enough good fat hence the losses will be less. and a little does matter, it’s just that bad. well it is supposed to be 4 bananas, milk and veg soup NOT tomato soup. please read each day more carefully.
if Palak & Tomato soup for dinner will not work than will have veg soup as mentioned below.
And is amul butter is fine for substitute of oil ?
On day 4 i already started my day with milkshake and mid morning 1 banana.
rest will have as mentioned below
Day 4 diet
Morning – 1 Banana Milkshake
Mid Morning – 1 Banana
Lunch – 1 Banana Milkshake
Evening – 1 Banana + coconut water
Dinner – cabbage+palak+tomato+onion soup
Please suggest.
it’s 4 bananas and by palak do you mean paneer?
Gm Sir !
Palak is green leafy vegetable.
I reduced 1.76 kg in 4 days …May b i also have cherms dates so it is not reflecting in reduction in weight.
4th day nyt i had cabbage onion garlic and green pepper soup and i am using nutrilite delite butter for vegetables and sou[s.
5th day morning i had sprouted moong, tomato , coriander leaves with small qty of white cheak peas in breakfast
assuming it has good fat yes it is OK for breakfast. looks good, yest he dates are not good, they are pure sugar.
Is that fine for breakfast on 5th day
i did not had any dates yesterday…just had vegetable soup sir…what is he dates ?
sorry mis-read something 🙂
