Day 3, nearly half way through the GM Diet. Things should only get easier now. Day 1 of the GM Diet and to a certain extent, Day 2 can be really hard for some people. On Day 3 of the GM diet weight loss plan, followers are now allowed to eat a combination of fruits and vegetables. There is no limit or restriction to the fruits and vegetables to be consumed on Day 3, although bananas are still not allowed. Followers of the diet plan may find less pressure to keep up with the regimen’s demands, as they have already adjusted their systems to fruit and vegetable intake during the past two days.
During the first three days of the GM diet, it is important to consume only fresh produce, as they contain more nutritional value. Organic harvests are also recommended, although these tend to be more expensive, local is even better.
Preparing the Body for Day 3
Preparing for Day 3 isn’t as difficult as that in days 1 and 2; it actually easier to keep up with the dietary requirements in Day 3 as the body is already used to fruit and vegetable intake. In most cases, individuals following the diet experience slight headaches in the succeeding days as they are already allowed to consume meat.
It is likewise encouraged to consume a variety of fruits and vegetables in every meal on Day 3. Having a variety of servings during breakfast, lunch and dinner would not only keep the stomach satiated, but at the same time content as the appetite’s cravings are regulated at lower levels.
It is as well recommended to perform breathing exercises in the morning at the start of Day 3. Doing so will release the tensions garnered from Days 1 and 2, and followers may experience a more relaxed time ahead.
At this stage, followers should have already lost 2-4 lbs. of body mass. NO CORN – PEAS – CARROTS
GM Diet Day 3 Breakfast
Breakfast in Day 3 may start light with an apple, but those who are looking for heavier meals may consume melon. When consuming melons for breakfast, it is important to have them supplemented with two glasses of water for better digestion.
GM Diet Day 3 Lunch
The diet regimen on Day 2 may be repeated on Day 3, but with more variety. Tomatoes may be included in lettuce-cucumber salads, but still these should be dressed in olive oil or vinaigrette.
GM Diet Day 3 Dinner
A serving of boiled vegetables would be ideal during Day 3 dinners, and they can be followed up with fruit desserts like watermelon apple.
GM Diet Day 3 Midday Snacks and Beverages
A combination of tomatoes, fresh greens, and different fruits may be consumed all day. Fresh juices such derived from berries, oranges and lemons would be ideal to those who are not into drinking water, although these should be as well consumed in proportional amounts to avoid bloating.
Vegetable juice like carrot and tomato juice may be served during evenings so as to satiate the appetite for sweet snacks.

This is confusing. In the GM Diet section on the top if you read after all the 7 day schedule it says that the GM Diet soup can be consumed from the 4th day and in the recipes section it says we can consume the soup at any point of any day…… what is to be done. Can anyone clarify please? Would be appreciated. Thank you.

I am on my second day of GM diet.
I am feeling excited but i want to ask what should we do to maintain the same wight after wight loss?

Day 3 is here!! Breakfast – 4 Orange segments, 3 blueberries, a handful of pomegranate seeds and 4 mango segments. Yum 🙂
I haven’t weighed myself yet as I don’t have any scales until tonight but I am definitely lighter. I put on a pair of size 14 denim shorts which I could fasten and fitted me perfectly. On Sunday I could not even get them past my thighs!!
For lunch and snacks today I have made a big melon based salad with a little kiwi fruit, mango and strawberries in too.
I will then eat vegetables for dinner.
With it being so warm here I love eating the fresh fruit more so than vegetables.
How is everyone doing? Well I hope!?
Finished out day 2 and I”m soooo tired (chasing kids and keeping up with lots of tasks today!) I find that if I’m really hungry, I first drink a glass of water and then I work on what to eat. It helps a lot with staying on track.
I’m on 3rd day…. followed the diet as mentioned…but seems to be no weight loss as of now 🙂 Can any one reply ..

It says no bananas but nothing about potatos can we have one potato today?
hi today is my 3rd day.i hv not checked the weight,but i feel light.i hope i will reduce at least 2 lg.feeling good.thanks to G M
On my 3rd day, lost 4.3lbs. This is easier than I thought. If I have had hunger pains, I drink more water. The colder the better. I have only eaten melon for my fruit. I have 1 cup of coffee in the morning with half a packet of Truvia. With my veggies, I add an avocado in their to supplement essential fatty acids and protein. I could only eat a little but and felt full. For dinner on Day 2, I had a whole bag of Edaname (sp) with a bit of sea salt at 5pm and was satisfied the rest of the evening and slept great. I woke this morning, Day 3, feeling weak…but as soon as I had my bowl of watermelon, I feel good again.
I am amazed of the weight loss so far and only 3 days in.
I am doing this to jump start a life change in my eating habits. It is not only a good cleanse, but it also helps trains your body to want good, clean foods. Cutting out sweets and getting clean for a ‘clean’ diet.
Tomorrow, Day 4, I will start light cardio to accelerate the flush. On Day 5, I will start to lift in the afternoon.
Hopefully by Day 6 I will have the energy to do both and then continue a regime to clean eating and energized workouts.
I used to compete in Fit Competitions and was in the best shape of my life. Everything went downhill after a diagnoses of cervical cancer…I am in remission now, but after long months of treatments and then a surgery that left me in bed for 8 weeks…I packed on the pounds and lost muscle mass.
This diet is great to kick start a healthy life and wouldn’t be healthy on your body to go past the 7 days. You can repeat, but give yourself a 2-3 week break with continued healthy eating.
Organic food tastes SO MUCH BETTER than anything else. There is ABSOLUTELY no comparison to a monoculture carrot from Monsanto and sweet organic carrot from a small family farm who treats the land with respect and who gets respect from the land back.

I just want some peanut butter!! But it’s working so I’m not going to eat any….
Its my third day,,still feel any difference.
On day 3 now. Lost about 2 Kgs / 4 lbs until this morning.
Feeling slight headache for the past 2 days… But I think I’ll continue with the plan.
No hunger pangs yet.
No cravings on day 3.
lost 4kls m, from day 1, im onmy day 3 today…amazing
I am on my 3rd day & already lost 2kgs but I cheat today. I took 4 strips of potato french fry.
Feeling very sad now. But still continueing the diet plan.lets see
I’ve completed diet & reduced 3.5 kgs. I’m very happy & want to do next time.
Today is my 6th day & lost 3 kgs. Very happy with the diet.
Planning to do it once again giving break of one week. Let u know
My final result day after tomorrow. Thnx
is it OK if I break the diet here !?
If I lose what I want to lose for example
Day three Started with 95.2
Day 3 started – lost 1.7 kg in first two days.
today is my first day i followed the diet very strictly but i had fresh orange juice instead of orange is tht ok…planning for day2
Day 3 started with preparation…
Had Wonder Soup yesterday.
Good thing is this regimen has given me enough will power to quit tea and coffee altogether. I plan to drop it from my intake forever. Also wonder soup seems good to make it a palnned low calorie intake every week. May be once or twice a week I can simply have Wonder Soup – I add a dash of olive oil and soy sauce to make it tasty. Even my toddler and wife likes the soup.
Working in high stress office environment and keeping this diet is not easy – at least for me. But I shall try my best.
Regards,
Abby
Abby Congrats…. You Are On Ur Day 3…Just Saw Your Review…Waiting For The Day 7..Share How Much You Reduced…Mine Is Day One… 🙁 All The Best
Cheers,
Anu
Day begins – making sure I stick to this diet. I have not weighed myself but feeling good and light.
I am worried about constipation… anyone else that feels the same?
Anu, hope you are going strong 🙂
I meant DAY 4 begins :
Do update when you finish…
I did not see all 7 days update from anyone recently…
Day 3 is near completion. I did not check weight yet,. I will check on day 8 only – after I am done. My weekend is going to be tough… as weekend binge should not take over 🙂
Just keep up with your regime – all the best…. 🙂 Cheers
Day 3 Ends with still some bouts of hunger pangs and craving for some “real food”
It is 11:00 pm in India – I am having a handful of grapes and 2 strawberries – some sugar satisfaction will help sleep better. At least the good side of this is assurance that I am able to make conscious effort and plan for healthier food intake.. I have never observed any kind of fasting – religious or otherwise.
Got my milk and banana ready for day 4 – rock on those who are following this stricter than me and those like me who are barely making it through… God bless 🙂
i started my diet day before but was out all day ystrday so had a heavy meal for lunch (had some veggies for dinner tho) ….. can i still continue the diet or i need to start afresh???
Please somebody help …..
Hi Jess ..I Am Not An Expert In GM Diet…In Day 2 You Suppose To Eat Vegetables…!! If You Had Any Protein Rich Foods/Non veg….I Suggest You To Start Again…!! Because If You Start With A Potato In The Morning Itself Give Lot Of Carbohydrates..In Addition To That Rich Calorie Foods May Affect Your Diet Plan..!! You Can Do It Jess..Come On…!! Its Ma Personal Opinion..All The Best For Your Diet…
Cheers,
Anu
Just start again Jess… Try to carry fruits with you in a container for days like these…
Day -3 Started with 91.5 Kg.

Just completed my third day..unlike the other two previous day…i feel much relaxed and energized today although I am unable to resist looking at other food options.
The plan is really working for me..my plum chin and extra fat around the face has vanished magically.
Since I am only going to check my weight on the final day..but looking myself at the mirror I can definitely tell I have lost a good weights.
I am eager to start tomorrow 🙂
Day 3: I am down 3 lbs! I can actually tell a slight difference in my face. Looking forward to changing up tomorrow on Day 4. I feel much better already, more awake, skin has a certain glow to it. I am very please so far and can’t wait to see what Day 4 will bring!

5. Can we take low fat milk instead of skimmed milk??
yeah can someone answer mrudha’s questions especially questions nos.1, 3 and 5 please.
I am on my third day and I feel constipated. Is this normal please?
Started day 3 but just lost half kg:-(
I did a mild cardio work out at the end of day 1. Felt weak and unwell and threw up. Was craving carbs and sugar and ate chocolate brownie. Feeling disillusioned but continuing.
Day 3 is good. Feeling much more energetic than day 1 and 2.
Day 3:
Weight dropped by 7 pounds. Really not enjoying eating the raw papayas. They have a odd smell and I am not use to the taste of them. I have been following the sample diet plans to a tee. Urinating a lot due to the water intake. Not exercising as of yet. Very weak and tired since starting. Craving everything, but so full throughout the day that I haven’t fell victim to cheating.
hi..this is my 3rd day…having slight headache…had soup on 2nd day night…is it ok
for those who say brown rice is not available…
esp. indians. brown rice is nothing but d very popular usna chaval… the thick rice dat is normally eaten by villagers….
btw 2day is my day1.. trying gm diet 4 d first tym… need to lose alot of weight… wish me luck.., an good luck to u all! 🙂
Kavitha headachces can happen when you cut foods from a diet, especially sugar.. Keep on going ifRA 🙂
hi ..on day 5 ..we are supposed to have only tomoatoes or with tomatoes we can have other fruits and vegetables ..since i’m vegetarian…planning to have soya chura and soya chappati..is it fine
The soya stuff should be fine, many people do.
Tomatoes, dinner maybe some cucumber. You can of course have the soup. No fruit.
Hi. I am on day 3 came down from 55.9 kg to 54.3 kg 🙂 … However had Vegetable soup in a restaurant On day 2 … And had one fourth cup of tea today hope it doesn’t effect the weight loss much .
I stareted gm diet on monday..
followed it 95% correctly..
Just that i cant resist Tea.. Had it 1/2 cup twice a day (widout sugar)
my weight be4 starting – 73.2 kg
On wed morning – 71.7 kg
Good results i guess..
3rd day is abt 2 finish and m really fed up of eating veggies n fruits!!!! although m not craving for other food stuff which i myself is cooking for my family..
my digestion system and hence hunger sensation is confused i guess 🙂
M gyming regularly as i do… but instead of 1 hour i just do cardio for 30 mins..
1 suggestion for those who r not losing at all- dont sit on couch having reason tht u r on strict diet, do ur regular physical work and exercise atleast for 20 mins..
will update you guys tmrw..
kept fingers crossed!!!
Today is my first day, Can we’ve SALT on day 2 over potato, cabbages, tomato or any other vegetables?
Please reply fast as today is my first day.
salt is fine, don’t overdue, will cause you to hold water weight so your numbers if you do too much will not be as good it seems on the scale.
I’m on day 3. Havent tried weighing yet but as of this morning, I just lost 2 pounds.
are we allowed to have buttermilk?
no, not a good idea for 7 days
I had half a cup of tea (with milk and sugar) on 2nd and 3rd day of GM diet.. Is it ok?
Sorry on the tea, no…. Got to get off the sugar..
But i already did.. 🙁
Can I Continue It?
I mean can i continue my diet?
Robin of course you can continue….
Can we eat Cauliflower on day 3 cooked and mashed?
Mashed cauliflower should be fine….
I am also making a lg pot of the wonder soup so what alterations can we make to it? Does pepper color effect it, I like red yellow and orange. Also on Day 5 can we use patties for breakfast as long as they are lean? Love this diet it has turned out amazing….in three days I have lost 4#’s but on wonder soup can we add the lipton package for extra flavor or no? Thanks you
You can alter some, but mostly with spices. I prefer not to use Lipton, but only organic spices and produce. You can do a patty for breakfast.
Hi!
Can I have one skinny Latte on Day 3 please?
Thanks
No, not really, sorry. These little changes, well in this case big can hinder you. But it is up to each person how they want to try it 🙂
I am towards the dinner time soup for Day 3. Have followed the diet to the T but haven’t lost anything so far 🙁
I am slim ..doing it for detoification and a trimming! can someone suggest why am I not losing? Will I lose in the coming days??
I would be travelling day 3 eve buy bus on a 11 hr travel can you suggest me on what i should be taking along ? 2 apples for the night should do the trick?Also can someone tell me what can i use instead of chicken and beef not coz im a veg just that as im working getting these to office makes me late… so is there anything i can grab onto other than these ? if so can you please let me know for day 5 and 6 how would i manage? egg white is good?or anything else to substitute them
and neha … i was solid 96 kgs before is started right now aftr 2 cycles i stand at 88 so thats a huge change in 2 weeks … keep drinking water that matters a lot … i guess.. if your thin already spend more time excersing and jogging or walking to trim yourself up.
today was my day three. i had apples in breakfast and papaya n melons for lunch and had lots of water. i live in a hostel so i don’t get boiled vegetables here.so what should i eat for dinner.? reply fast
Hello sejal…
I am not sure what to recommend if you cannot have veggies, can you eat some raw and not boiled?
Priya….
Egg whites? and no yolks? I am not big on that. Chicken yes is fine though…
11 hour trip? meat is tough unless you have a cooler. Raw veg is fine if that helps…
I started.
At 84.
Not be measuring till last day.
Hard to do this without family support for Indians.
Will it work.
Read the reviews of GM diet plan , and started it yesterday. Day 1 was Tough ! Day 2 is a bliss as there are lots of vegis , adding a dash of salt to it. Hope its fine.
Can we have juices .. like carrot and apple juice on Day 3 ? Is it recommended , specially at night ? Can someone help.
salt is OK, no juices like that, especially at night. 🙂
Day 3
starting weight:68kg
Current:66.4kg
I had fruits in the morning, vege at noon, fruits for tea and gonna have papaya for dinner later.
Can I have tomato basil soup in day 3
Maybe just a little for lunch, and it all depends on what’s in it…
Now in my 3rd day!! Hopefully looking forward:-)
I added salt and pepper in my 2nd day.. Was that ok??? Worried a bit…
You can season your food with dry spices… Spice away.
Hi I’m ending of 3 day of gm deit … I started from 77 kg n still no weight loss …. What’s the reason , plz help admin it’s very depressing :((((
Head here, make post in one of the threads and we will see, need to see what you are or are not eating like the soup?
http://www.gmdietforum.com/
Hi
I am currently 45.8, have started the GM diet plan on 4th Nov. Did a lil cheating on day 1 but I am now completely focussed and will share the results by end of day 7
Hi Admin
What exercises should be done along with this diet plan. Is it ok If I walk for 30 mins or should I do more rigorous exercise?
Hello.
The healthiest and best for the body exercising i have read is HIT or burst training.
Hello everyone! Day 3 was not that easy, for me. However I managed to finish it. This was my menu for today:
1 Green apple
1/4 melon
Snack:
Strawberries
Lunch:
Salad, with tomatoes, cucumber, onions, garlic and lettuce, with a little bit of olive oil and salt
Snack:
1/4 melon
Dinner
Stir fried marrows, very little bell pepper, little broccoli, cabbage, carrot and little green beans (+ salt + some olive oil).
Admin, I think here I did a mistake – I took very little green beans, but after I realised that maybe they were prohibited during this 7 day plan or am I mistaken? And another question please, today the whole day I was and still am very bloated, and it seems that my tummy remained the same + more bloated, do you have a suggestion why this can be?
Thank you very much!
Bloating, not sure. Salt, too much, it can really vary, maybe not enough hydro chloric acid, seems like a digestive issue, but I am no doctor and this can vary big time. Maybe Google it some. Ficus on your digestion. Green beans are fine.
Thanks a lot for your quick answer!! You give us so much support!
Day 2 was very hard for me as I am not at all fond of Boiled Vegetables.
I am stating Day 3. Can I stick to just Fruits today?
Well and some raw veggies https://www.gmdietworks.com/general-motors-diet/gm-diet-day-3.html
Day 3, my menu:
Breakfast: Green apple & slice of melon
Snack: Tangerine
Lunch: Grilled Aubergine + grilled marrow + grilled peppers & fresh salad + olive oil
Snack: Tangerine
1 green apple
Dinner: Steamed cabbage, carrot, broccoli, with onion, garlic, few olives, capers & olive oil.
1 orange
Hope I’m doing well! Will weigh myself tomorrow morning, I hope not to be disappointed :/
I’m breast feeding so is it ok to follow GM diet
Not a doctor, you will need to ask yours. my guess, is if you did this, add more fat to the meals that have none, say just under a tablespoon of coconut oil, also eat the soup never fast!
Can we take coconut water in all seven days?? and also suggest whether lemon tea can be consumed during this diet.
yes on both, just don’t add extra sugar or sweetener…
can i hav green tea @ cocunut water?al 7 days i dnt use sugar bt can i us sugar free NATURA?
fake sweeteners do not trick the body, so beware but that’s up to you. Yes you can have tea and 10 oz of coconut water a day or so, just don’t overdo.
Hey its my 3rd day.. i lost total 3 kgs…. i m happy to follow this diet.. its very heplfull.
Starting DAY1
196.65 Pound. Keep you posted… 🙂
today’s plan
An apple – 8am

An apple – 8am and Two Sapodilla – 8pm
Guys (URGENT)
Hi, I am losing weight because I need to shut the faces of people who taunt me all the time.
with a lot of will power, i followed the diet strictly.
but today on day 3
i had 3 dahi puris.
it contained very little cured, sprouted seed, and little sugar.
CAN I STILL CONTINUE THE DIET?
Please help 🙁
you can continue, it yes can hinder you some in weight loss, but yes keep going…
Also, I cannot eat the soup as I have no resources to make it (I live in a college hostel).
Any substitutes?
steamed veg possible?
Hi everyone, im drinking more then 12 glass of water any harm in that?
12 can really be too much. messes with your electrolytes and such. Be very careful!
Can i put Ajinomoto in boiled vegetables
No, never, run for your life. It’s all fake! Whole, natural, nutrient dense. not fake and toxic.
What I am interested in knowing is what people’s starting weight is….
It is nice to know that people are loosing weight, but since I am only 137 lbs to begin with (at 5foot 6inches) I feel as though I am not loosing what I should be (started at 137 and morning of Day 3 was at 135.7).
As well, I am drinking tea and I have also allowed myself one diet pop a day. Is this going to negate the whole experience? Thanks 🙂
Diet pop? yes it can, what does diet pop have to do with weight loss or diet? Your body is not fooled by the fake sweetener, rather hurt. Tea fine no sweetener. Seems like you may want to consider following the diet as we have it rather than negating the soup and adding stuff. Good luck though!
Also, I have not and don’t plan on using the soup. Will this hinder my progress as well?
sure can, this is not a fasting diet, the soup actually helps!
This is my 3rd day today but no change in weight.. i am strictly following it.
Are you eating the soup? How many bananas will you eat day 4 and milk?
can i add salt to my fruits and vegetables, will that hinder my weight loss
salt is fine, just a little, it does not necessarily hinder weight loss, may just cause a little water retention. Can make it seem like you’re not losing that much weight,
Hi, i am on day 3 of gm diet. i am breastfeeding as well. from day 2 i am having these strong headaches but i am being strong.
So i wanted to asked. I have had 2 apples for breakfast. Can i have baked potato for lunch? i will be having a 1/2 melon for dinner.
Not on day 3, you cannot have potato. The rest is fine, look at t e layout for day 3 you get plenty of food…
Its my day 3 today…. and no cravings fr food 2day 🙂
NICE 🙂
Lost 2.5 kg in fist 3 day
I am having coconut water in morning and lemon in hot water 3.4 times a day, is that OK?
Assuming the coconut water is pure, no fillers, chemicals or junk then absolutely yes on both, they are OK 🙂
Hi
Can I eat dried fruits like dried fig or mulberry?or almonds?
Nope, sorry
Dear All,
Please advise if I can have Tomato soup(mixed with onions,red and green pepper) for evening snacks/dinner on 3rd day or for lunch/dinner on 4th day.
no tomato’s in wonder soup, which can be had any day. day 4 is bananas and milk or wonder soup only. Make sure you read each day….
Hello Author,
I have tried GM diet before, however only lost 1-2 kgs during 7 days.
However, this is my 2nd shot at it and today is my 3rd day !
I just wanted to ask you a few quick questions –
I am preety confused about coffee.. Can we have cappuccino / with 2 satchets of sugar free like “equal” etc? or may be without sugar ?
Secondly, i am not eating much as i dont feel hungry that often otherwise as well. I could blame it on my laziness though.. so is it okay to just have the diet recommended meals twice or thrice a day ?
Lastly, is chciken burger (lettuce, chicken patty, bun slices of tomato) okay to have on day 5 ?
hoping to get answers ! Thanks
No coffee, no sugar, no creamers, no fake sugars. You have to go into this and come out with the mindset that you are making a lifestyle change and eating real foods. If you did do coffee then it has to be plain.
You should really stay on the plans, eating less is not good at all.
NO buns no grains…. If you were doing any of these last time, there will be little to no weight loss.
Good Luck 🙂

hi,
I’ve been on ur diet plan since 2007 & without a doubt its the best one for the ones like me! I just hate the idea of fasting and also I do eat till my plate shines bright… I thank u all for this wonderful diet plan. now my querry is that as the time has passed by many GM diet experts hav had their say in different aspects, as I hav advised many to follow this plan with a restriction of minimum 3 months gap, I am now being told that 3 days gap is enough…also what bout those who wants to have tea, as per my knowledge its not at all to be taken but now i’m being told that it is to avoided / restricted to black tea or lime tea….please clarify!!!!
THANKS!!!
experts? There is only 1 GM diet, this one…. So what others have said may have worked for them, but beware!
Tea, a cup or 2 a day fine, go herbal, something healthy, no sweeteners at all! I am big on a 2 week to 1 month gap. But that’s up to each person 🙂
hey thanks for the clarification, now this time around today is my third day I theres no reduction in my weight…..as I told I do tend to eat a lot, but as I hav always done, stick to the diet plans….my wife says that i’m eating more that’s why the effect is not there, but I don’t agree as all I hav increased is the gm wonder soup in my plan that too from yesterday (2nd day) which I take every now and then….can I take soup on 4th day too??
Day 4 soup is fine…
Starting Day 3 and going strong! I accidentally cheated on Day 2 and cooked my lunch time vegetables with a bit too much olive oil (I felt horribly bloated after that too), but I still have lost 5 pounds in the past two days! I will be more conscious of oil use today. I am only eating raw or steamed vegetables from here on out! I’ve been eating so much and really surprised with how satisfied my hunger is PLUS the weight loss. I am using this diet as a jump start to a healthier lifestyle, and plan to repeat the GM diet week once a month. I have kind of strange eating times due to my job, but it’s been working (aside from having to take a bathroom break 1-2 times per hour). I also was a total coffee addict, but I have made the switch to having black tea without sugar while on this diet and it has satisfied my caffeine cravings.
Day 1:
Right upon wake up: down two glasses of water.
Breakfast: 1 1/2 cups mixed melons and a cup of water. I bought a watermelon, cantaloupe, and honey dew, chopped it all up, put it in a large bowl and still have some left for today’s diet plan.
Morning snack: 1 apple and a cup of water
Lunch: 2 cups of melons and an orange and about three cups of water (I have a large thermus and consume all of it by the end of the work day.
Afternoon snack: a container of blackberries a cup of water
Dinner: 2 cups of melons, two glasses of water, and a few strawberries for dessert.
I did have some stomach pain that night, but it was bearable. By the end of the day, most of my cravings subsided.
Day 2
Upon wake up: Drink two glasses of water
Breakfast: 1 cup of boiled potato with a pat of butter and minced garlic
Morning snack: I actually did not have one this day, I forgot my snack at home when I left for work..
Lunch: Lightly sauteed asparagus, daikon radish, and cherry tomatoes(this is where I used way too much oil, but it still was a healthy meal) and three cups of water
Afternoon snack: a red lettuce salad with cherry tomatoes and a herb-infused vinegar(I made this at home, apple cider vinegar, fresh basil, dill, rosemary, and garlic. very good for salad!!)
Dinner: since I was so full from lunch, I had a roasted beet with a bit of sea salt for dinner and two cups of water
On this day, I horribly craved for something with the crunch of chips. However, I prepared for this by buying roasted seaweed. And munching on a sheet of seaweed when I got a craving. No fat. No salt. Barely any calories, and great for detoxing! Gave me that crunch-craving I desperately wanted.
And now, for day 3:
Upon waking: two cups of water
Breakfast: 1 cup of melon, two cups of water
morning snack: an orange
Lunch: lightly sauteed and spiced/seasoned cabbage and one roasted beet (leftovers from last night) and some strawberries
Afternoon snack: red lettuce with my vinegar and a mango
Dinner: I am planning to make the wonder soup tonight, so that’s what dinner’s gonna be. Maybe with a little melon or some fruit for dessert
Today’s gonna be hard! It’s Friday and pot luck day at work, but I got this! Hope all of you the best with a jumpstart to weight loss and a healthy lifestyle!
Tea is fine no sweeteners. Hang in there, nobody including myself ever says dieting is easy. But keep in mind how well you feel on this diet, then eat this way after but more balanced of course. Pot Lucks, RUN 🙂
What can i have instead of tomatoes?
pick another veg, just NOT corn or peas
Okay so I’m on day 2 but I’m really struggling because my stomach just keeps feeling empty. I have used zero salt or pepper or anything but I see that many use it, is it allowed? Also I am getting lots of headaches. Could i have plain non-salted crackers with the salad?
Or cheese ?
Yes use salt and pepper. have the soup when you need food. NO cheese and never on crackers. They may not have salt or fat, but it’s those empty junk carbs like in crackers that cause most weight gain. Also you can use pepper,s spices, etc…
Hello what type of seasoning would be ok to use for the meat I know it’s salt and pepper but what about organic cayenne and stuff like that? Anyone know any brands that Walmart or Publix has? Thanks
I would not buy spices at Walmart unless they had organic. But yes spices like that are great.
hi author,
i am on day 3 , is it ok if i make a green leaves salad dressing at home which will be very little olive oil+ vinegar+ mustard sauce + sweet chili sauce+ 5 peanuts crushed) the sauces are fat free and i used very little..

Today is my third day of gm diet. Morning i checked my weight..reduced one kg. But in the afternoon..showing the same weight. Can anyone pleseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee help me…. why its like this.

Hi,

large bananas, 2 glasses of milk, or about 3 cups.
Many thanks
i just lost 2.8kg at the beginning of day 3…. can’t wait to start day 3!
for dinner, can we substitute with spinach soup?
where do you see spinach soup?
hi,
I had lost 5 lb by the morning(3rd day)
Today i had :
Breakfast- 1 cup watermelon
lunch – 1/2 cup cabbage soup and 1/2 cup sautéed Birds Eye Recipe Ready Mixed Vegetables
dinner-1/4 cup sautéed Birds Eye Recipe Ready Mixed Vegetables.
* mixed veg has Peas, carrots, corn, cut green beans …
I used 1tbs oil to sauté them,.my doubt is whether my diet is on the right way or not…i fear that oil or sweet corn might add up to my weight..
And for tomorrow do we have any substitute for banana… as it has lot of calories in it..
Can you please guide on it.
Thank you..
Stick to the plan it actually works. I am not a big fan of corn, seasoning with it is OK though, Where is your protein/meat? Why are you skipping stuff. Other fruits not much better tan bananas, bananas are on there for a reason.
thank you author.. i will follow the plan as it is.. actually i am not feeling much hunger so im having small size meals.. i will have bananas n skim milk tomorrow..:)

Hi Guys…
Sharing my GM diet experience.
Today is day 3 of my 5th week of GM diet.
It all started when i was 98.6 kg’s, 4 months back and decided i dont wanna score a century like tendulkar. 🙂
I started my 1st week on 26th jan 2014. After 1st week my weight dropped to 93.5kg’s… I gave a gap of 8-10 days and started 2nd week.. I kept on doing this for 4 weeks giving a break of 10-12 days between each gm diet week. At the end of 4 weeks i was a good 12.6 kgs less than when i started. i came down from 98.6kgs to 86kgs. Now lot of people here are having a lot of doubts as to how to follow the plan correctly. Well let me share my way of doing it. Im not claiming that im doing it right or everybody should follow me. Im just sharing my experience.
I normally start my week on a monday and end on a sunday.
Day 1
Just water melon and sweet melon for breakfast, lunch dinner.
Additionally
half a glass of honey and lemon juice in warm water early morning.
2 black coffee’s a day without milk and sugar
6-8 litres of water
30 min cardio
20 min of stretching and lifting weights.
Day 2
-2 potatoes for breakfast… Here it says u can have baked potatoes with a pat of butter. Well i improvised and boiled 2 potatoes and then light fried them in a pat of butter with salt, pepper n garlic. taste just like fries… 🙂
-lunch: a bowl of raw cucumber, cherry tomatoes, broccoli, celery, corn, red and yellow bell pepper sprinkled with black salt and pepper.
-dinner: same as lunch
Additionally
half a glass of honey and lemon juice in warm water early morning.
2 black coffee’s a day without milk and sugar
6-8 litres of water
30 min cardio
20 min of stretching and lifting weights.
Day 3
– Breakfast: Watermelon and sweet melon
– Lunch: same as day 2
– Dinner: same as day 2
Additionally
half a glass of honey and lemon juice in warm water early morning.
2 black coffee’s a day without milk and sugar
6-8 litres of water
30 min cardio
20 min of stretching and lifting weights.
Day 4 (Toughest for me. I almost give up this day)
-Breakfast: a glass of milk with a spoon of honey in it. 2 bananas
– Lunch: same as breakfast 🙁
– Dinner: same as breakfast 🙁
Additionally
half a glass of honey and lemon juice in warm water early morning.
2 black coffee’s a day without milk and sugar
6-8 litres of water
30 min cardio
20 min of stretching and lifting weights.
Day 5
– Breakfast- Chicken soup with green veggies. (diced boneless chicken w/o skin)
– Lunch- Chicken or mutton patty (normal burger patty size), tomato and cucumber. I myself make my patty at home using minced meat which is readily available in cold storages. I add garlic, salt and pepper to my patty and fry it in 1/2 tbsp of olive oil.
– Dinner- same as lunch
Additionally
half a glass of honey and lemon juice in warm water early morning.
2 black coffe’s a day without milk and sugar
6-8 litres of water
30 min cardio
20 min of stretching and lifting weights.
NOTE: from day 5 I also start having maximum 2 beers a day as i cant stay away from alcohol on weekends and since i start my GM diet week on monday, day 5 comes on friday. 🙂
A gentle reminder again, I am not recommending anybody to have alcohol during a diet and expecting nobody to follow me. I am just sharing my experience.
Day 6
-Breakfast: Vegetable soup. (Broccoli, celery, red and yellow bell pepper, cabbage, corns, salt and pepper)
– Lunch: Chicken kebab with a tomatoe and cucumber… Just take chunks of chicken, red and yellow bell pepper, some garlic. arrange them on a skewer and put them directly on flame till they turn dark brown and slightly charred.
– Dinner: same as lunch
Additionally
half a glass of honey and lemon juice in warm water early morning.
2 black coffee’s a day without milk and sugar
6-8 litres of water
30 min cardio
20 min of stretching and lifting weights.
Day 7
– Breakfast: watermelon and fresh fruit juice (a mixture of pomegranate, water melon, sweet melon, apple)
– Lunch: Brown rice with chicken stew.
– Dinner: i normally quit till i reach here and eat a normal indian sunday dinner (Rice, Chappati, Chicken masala etc)
I usually lose 3-4 kgs’s per diet week with an exception of my 1st week where i lost 5.1 kgs and 2nd week where i lost just 1.2 kgs as i cheated in between eating snacks like samosa and wada.
Now i read some comments saying do not follow GM diet as u tend to gain weight much faster after u quit.
Well im not saying they r wrong but what i feel is it all depends upon individual’s metabolism and lifestyle.
i have a very sedentary life style sitting in front of computer 10 hours a day and drinking 4-5 days a week. (except th 50 min i put in for exercise.) and i have noticed the following.
-i gained weight at the rate of 500 grams per week with the above life style but not eating any sweets or additional sugar.
– i gained almost 1 kg per week when i had additional sugar such as sweetened soft drinks, indian sweets and chocolates.
In any case if you lose 4-5 kgs per week and then take 5-10 weeks to gain those 5 kgs back, i think its pretty much ok.
Additional benefits
1) i personally experienced my blood pressure lowering to 120 from a constant 140 plus initially. (Rechecked 4-5 times to confirm)
2) a friend of mine followed this diet. He always had swollen toes due to high sugar levels. After doing this diet 4-5 times he found the swelling to reduce.
Again im not claiming or recommending any one to follow this diet but simply sharing my experience.
Regards
Harry

Assuming the tea has no sweetener that’s ok. Where was that potato on day 2? That is a huge miss, you really needed that. By the looks of it you seem like you think eating less is better, it is not, please stick to the plan. Keep going though 🙂

Beans are a huge mistake in your soup! This is not our daily soup. Keep that in mind, can really throw you possibly. Other than that not bad.
oh i used 250 gms beans in total for 3 days soup.
is it too bad?
Day 4
####
post lunch
2 bananas and 1 glass milk
Dinner

Lunch :soup(tomato,cauliflower,onion,peas )and small bowl of soya
Dinner :Half Roasted chicken
Will Have 4 tomatoes in Entire day
Please confirm is it fine ?
soya chunks used
Hello
all looks good. glad you feel better processed foods are a killer. The beans are fine after diet, just not during on veg days, soya chunks are up to each person, there is just nothing healthy about soy. You are doing well by the way, keep going 🙂
Day 5
Had burning sensation in stomach entire day.

Had 1 small bowl of soup
1 bowl of mixed vegetables (onion ,tomato,cucumber,capsicum,carrot)

I was unable to weigh myself in the morning.. but guessing, my weight would be around 70 now… need to buy a new weighing machine…
Morning has started with a usual lemon+ginger juice
Having Mango+Kiwi+green tea + water for the breakfast…

all veg? really? if so then no but you have to do what you have to do.
Yippe.. I have weighed myself and quite happy to see the scale has touched 70.8 KG today. All the hunger pangs, all the temptations, all distractions have moved out from the way of determination.. Today not even a single deviation from the Diet plan
LemonJuice with Ginger
Fruits – Mango, Orange, Kiwi, Grapes, water melon, sweet melon n loads of water n green tea
Vegetables – in sauté – baby corn, cucumber, baby carrot, asparagus, capsicum ..
Whole day munching
Not forgetting to say, my multivitamin tablets, as I have hairfall issue… today I have added one extra hair-nail-skin tablet to meet with my vitamin needs
See you all tomorrow .. the confusing 4th day of GM diet
keep going 🙂
Yesterday was my second day, I had wonder soup. I modified it bit pls let me know is this ok. as I am going to have it today also…
I couldn’t get cabbage yesterday so used carrot instead
Step1: Bolied onion(2),tomato(2),garlic(1), coriander leaves(instead of cerely)
Step2: Grinded all together
Step2: added 1tp of oil,added all grinded content, carrot & salt and boiled everything for 15min
Your soup looks great to me 🙂

Morning had one guava…
Yet to check my weight..crossing fingers to see good results..
Please answer me wat I can have in the noon…
well best to have veg, but if it’s all you have go for it.
Had 2 carrots for lunch…:( thank u for ur quick reply author:)
In plan for 4th day noon we are suppose to take soup…but i will be in office can so i cannot have it….:( so can i take soup in the night & banana in noon?????
You can have soup on day 4, the soup is there for when you are hungry. yes you can alter when you take food.
Is there any difference b/w toned milk & skim milk…?
not really, I am only big on fermented dairy like yogurt or kefir anyway. Up to you.
I have completed my diet plan but not weighed myself. I dont know whether I could loose any weight or not.
Can I start once again
Best to wait at least 2 weeks. In between that time follow a healthy diet, you will be amazed at how well you feel
:)Weighed today morning reduced only 1.2kg:( is there any wrong in my diet:(
Day1: had Apple in the morning, fruit bowl in the noon, Grapes in the night..did skipping 200 i.e for 10min and half kilometer walk
Day2: lemon with water, had boiledpotato in the morning, noon cucumber, night soup which i have mentioned above(no exercise).
day3: lemon with water, had gauva in the morning, 3carrots in the noon , soup and mango (no exercise).
everymorining i walk half kilometer, & i use steps in office…even then 🙁 please let me know will i be lossing any weight in other 4 days..
WOW, at quick glance you are not eating enough food at all. WHY? This is not a fasting diet, less is worse.
🙁 i hate vegetables…so there was no way to do so:( shall i restart or…shall i continue…
all veg? tough call, you can continue as you see fit, but it will be tough, I am so sorry… You cannot eat nuts, fruits, wheat, cheese, etc and think you will be able to keep weight off. There has to be balance. Do you eat loads of processed foods (Canned/boxed foods)?
Pls let me know what i can take on day 5 pls..iam vegeterian,,, & indian pls suggest what i can eat for breakfast, lunch & dinner
Ya b4 i use….alergetic to veg means hmmmm:)sorry….i will really try eating next time…but on second say i had lots of cucumber..:) please let me know if want to restart or continue…
don’t be, I’m sorry, hang in there, take a day or 2 off and then start again. Cucumber is good, any other veg you can have?
Carrot,tomato,cucumber & caulifower…pls give me plan…i wil start again from 1st june…Thank u thanks a lot for caring & answering my questions 🙂
Follow what we laid out, then use these veg we we call for nay veg. Make a simple soup from tomato and cauliflower, add whatever spices you like.
can any one tell me can we use calocasia in vegetables?/
no, it’s like a starchy tuber. You can after though.
day 3
2 apples in the early morning
breakfast: fruit bowl with pineapple, half a small papaya, one kiwi and an apple
pre lunch: one mango
lunch: bowl of vegetable soup(same as in day 2)
post lunch: more soup
dinner: left over soup and 2 oranges
I am on day 3 of the diet, but I feel weak.Y is it so?
It can be normal, when you cut processed foods, wheat, sugar, etc your body will let ya know for a few days. Most people end up totally energized afterwards.
Can we cook vegs like peas, lady finger in olive oil for our meal like we saute green pepper and onions for wonder soup.
you can cook the veg per the recipe for the soup yes, other than that no. Although 1/2 tsp of oil would not hurt.
Weigh myself in the morning of Day 3. Lost 4.5 pounds already! Happiness!
Awesome 🙂
I started on 18th June i weighed 85.5 Kg
today on 19th june woww its 83.5 Kg..
i got one thing 4m this that if u want bestest results then do physical exertion also….
then the same result u will get as I 🙂
Hi. I am in obese category. I was currently weighing 145.8 kg. i finished my first day of GM diet yesterday and today i checked my weight, Awsome my weight was 144.3 kg. Today i am having all the vegetables. mostly carrot, cabbage and tomatoes is it fine. Please suggest
good new, day 2, don’t skip that morning potato. it is needed and the fat with it. stick to the plan 🙂
Started with 92.2 Day 3 started and I am 91.3 Kg as did some cheating on day 2…. 🙂 🙂 I had beans and 2 bowl curd at dinner. Later on somewhere I read that beans are not good for Gm diet.
Will make sure to honestly follow the plan on day 3 😀 ;D
Can I have some Chach( Butter milk ) n my day 3. ???
hang in there 🙂
no milk day 3…
Started this morning with weight at 92 Kg…
Followed the plan with some deviation of having 2 cups of regular Tea (without sugar)… and some wonder soup when I felt hungry. I have consumed fruits with the condition of unlimited supply …:) that is till my satisfaction, which anyways did not go way beyond the prescribed limit.
Important change that I noticed: lesser or almost no pangs or cravings for sweets / snacks that I earlier had. Will check the weight tomorrow and am all excited to see the result. … (y)
tea no sugar as long as it’s herbal is OK. your body will start to pull away from junk, however introduce any at all, and scientifically your dopamine levels will shoot up and you will crave it once again. BEWARE (from personal failures and experiences 🙂 )
Starting the Day 3…… on a jubilant note…. have reduced to slightly under 90 Kg from 92… losing over 2 Kg in 2 days…. that too when I cheated on a dry fruit barfee yesterday… could not resist it…Blame it on my sweet tooth… 😉
Important thing that I noticed was tantalising your test buds with your favourite taste , and not consuming any real calories acts a s a positive deterrent to your cravings for sweets etc…. 😀
I would not advise others to … but I do enjoy indulging into a bit of ..just a bit of ,change of taste. And it works to keep you happy, which I think is important to keep you stress free… (y)
Well define stress free? To me I found denying myself foods that will cause issues later down the road are so beyond stress free, it’s an amazing feeling to say no. That cheat, that sugar is short lived pleasure asking you to come back for more and more. I can assure everyone here, stress free is doing what it takes to get you life back on the right track. However this is a personal decision, I had a sweet tooth and could eat a pound of organic dried mangoes in a day, and it only ended up causing me stress in the end.
Hello, I’m starting day 3 today, and I’m very demotivated as I haven’t lost even a pound! Could someone please tell me why that is? I should add that I’m 52 Kgs, and have over the last 10 years put on and lost small amounts of weight fairly frequently. This time last year, I was 47.5 Kgs. Now though, no diet seems to work – my body seems to have become immune to weight loss. Could anyone share any insights on this? Many thanks.
Hello….
What is you diet like on a normal day? do you eat wheat, sugar, fake sweeteners, processed foods, bad oils? etc etc this will help to know 🙂 Hang in there.
Hi,
I do have wheat occasionally – when the diet demands it, but none on the GM diet so far. No sugar, no cheese/butter and just normal vegetable oil for cooking. I do use sweetener in my tea. My body just doesn’t seem to respond to my attempts to trick it into losing weight lately 🙁
yah, there can be underlying health issues like high cortisol, thyroid problems, etc. To me, the only thing that worked for me was cutting all sugar, eating balanced meals like I posted the example diet in the forum, cutting junk vegetable oils (Use coconut, palm or olive), cut too many snacks and never eat processed foods. Think nutrient dense and never eat gluten. it’s not easy, but when done it’s bliss!
Many thanks, please could you also suggest a beef substitute for day 5? It would be so helpful if you could list all 3 meals with a substitute for day 5. The website isn’t too clear here.
Would chicken work equally well?
chicken will work equally as well to me, as will fish.
And another question – tomorrow is day 6 for me,which means chicken and vegetables. No brown rice is allowed on this day right? I ask as the Chinese stir fry recipe listed on the website says that the chicken stir fry should be served on a bed of brown rice. But there is no mention of brown rice for day6otherwise.
no when meat is called for you cannot do rice as well.
are olives a veggie. I put them w my lettuce day 2. How about spinach. haven’t seen any mention if this is ok.
spinach fine, no olives unless it’s 1 or 2, and they should not be soaked in bad oils. 🙂
is almond milk ok for day 4?
sure is
My starting weight was 76.5kgs gained after pregnancy.
After completing this diet, I weigh 69kgs.
This diet is great! Tried almost anything but without success. I’m a nurse, so I have a moderately active lifestyle. I cheated on day 2, I can’t eat raw and bland veggies so I ate fruits instead (cherry, strawberry & grapes). For the exercise, I did the jillian michaels level1 30day shred every other day and 7minute scientific exercise everyday.
My target weight is 60kgs. I will do this again after 2weeks.
Try a plan like this afterwards, balanced and you may find more weight loss. http://www.gmdietforum.com/threads/vegetarian-sample-plan-after-gm-diet.313/
Is there a specific recipe for the day 5 beef soup or is it ok to just have the cabbage soup.
NO, just how you like, meaning add some spices, veg you like, a little tomato, however…
Can I have boiled corn on cob on day 2 and day 3 for lunch. R corn high on carbs?
I never recommend corn, technically a grain, a high allergen food, normally heavily genetically modified and nutrient dead. So for at least this plan, no corn.
can i eat sweet corn in day 2 and 3?
try not to, it’s nutrient dead, normally over genetically modified, technically a grain and relied upon way too much as a veg.
HI ,
this is my 2nd time when i am following this diet. Today is my 3rd day and in morning i was feeling so weak. i am taking soup of all veggies with lil salt and spices , as i cant eat bolied or raw veggies. Is this i am feeling weak because i am taking too much watery soup and not whole plain raw veggies?(this soup is wonder soup kinda only added spices to it).
Thanks for your guidance.
Angel
Add as many spices as you like to your food. Weakness the first couple of days can be normal, take a cup of herbal tea (no sweetener) or coconut water to help some. The soup should help you with electrolyte issues, over drinking water can cause you to be weak, flushes out minerals needed. The soup or coconut water can help with that.
Hi,
I’m in 4th cycle 4th day. When i started this diet my weight was 77.8 and now 74. I’m not reduced atleast 5kgs overall this cycles. Can i know the reason for this.
I have to reduce my intake as much as? Or i took boiled sweet corn…that’s the reason?
boiled corn is a huge no no. however you could have it once, say 1/4 cup. problem is folks over do it. Technically it’s a grain, nutrient dead, genetically modified and a big health hindrance. are you doing each cycle back to back? you cannot do that. please let me know.
Yes. I’m doing back to back. Is any wrong? In 4th cycle day 2 my weight 73.2…happy to see that and in the next day(day 3) i expect atleast 73 to reduce..but my weight on day 3 is 74.4. shocked…why suddenly gained 1kg..I cant understand… 🙁

Very wrong, a minimum of 2 weeks in between rounds, preferably more. Here are some plans you can follow, top 2 posts, in between rounds, you may be shocked if you stick with them how well you might do. To me a lifestyle change is best, maybe a nutritionist can test you and find what is best for your body.

After day 7 can i have chappati?
Personal choice, I recommend though you research how negatively wheat affects you health. You will gain weight likely if you start it again.
Hi All
I am in day 3 Diet. Pure Veg 🙂
can i eat guava in mid evening. Also how to prepare for day 4?
you can have one as you like. Prepare for day 4? Not sure what you mean.
Can corn be eaten on vegetable day?
It could season 1 dish, meaning less than a 1/4 cup all 7 days. for so many reasons corn is just not healthy. technically it’s a grain. it’s 95% genetically modified and nutrient dead. most people whether they realize it or not do not do well on it. Unless you can find sprouted organic pure old style corn. I would not. Sorry 🙂
I’m on day 2, Today was much better then yesterday as I made all different kind of cooked dishes. Was that a mistake, were the veggies supposed to be eaten only raw? Does that apply also to day 3?
good news, cook the veg if you like for sure. raw veg can be tough in the digestion for some that have digestive issues.
Thanks for the promp response.
What about potatoes can I have one for lunch?
just breakfast day 2
I started my first day of diet with 1 apple and 2 guavas then in lunch 1 cup Sun melon and then in dinner I had 1 Cup papaya, 1Apple, 1 guava. Then on 2 day i had one bolied potato in breakfast , 2 carrots and 2 cucumbers in lunch, then in dinner 1 small bowl pulses. Hope it would work. Now i will not eat pUlses again. Please suggest diet for Day3
Did you have any fat on the potato, day butter or olive oil? We have laid out sample days for you under each section. It’s hard to do much more than that since much is determined by your location.
Yesi used olive Oil 1/4 tblespoon
Good 🙂
Would it work now as i had pulses on Day 2 in night?
Keep going you should be OK 🙂
Thanks for the prompt response. Hope it would work!!!!
Helow
Im on 3 day of GM Diet… i hd dysentry … its gud or …
Diarrhea? Blood was in it? Please see a doc. Not sure why eating fruits and veg would cause that. Please get help if you need it.
Hi can I eat pickles and corn on the cob?
NO, corn is technically a grain. Pickles would be fine if they are a pure type, that does not have chemicals and bad oils in them.
Pickles are called cucumbers in brine. Ingredients are selected cucumbers salt spices water acidulants are they ok?
I know what pickles are, I actually ferment my own. you can have if you like. Acidulants, scary they will not say which ones, trust me you likely do not want to know. Keep in mind natural is better, pickles do not need those ingredients.
Sorry I was just writing what it said on the jar. Just wanted to make sure all ingredients are known. Thanx for the reply
Oh no complaint, just explaining and want to be some help 🙂
Hello i am presently on my day 3 of the gm diet, i feel better, but my question is on the days 5-7 can i substitute meat for fish? i got confused because everywhere i was seeing meat with rice or can i substitute the meat for the cup of rice? i dont want to eat beef. please advice me on what to eat for days 5-7, no beef pls, will prefer chicken if its allowed or fish.
yes you can use fish. you can have eggs and chicken as well.
hii i am on my day 3 of gm diet..can i hav sprouts and red chana today and remaining days
some sprouts, just a few with your veg. NO red chana, it can replace meat. You cannot have legumes when you like on this program. They have carbs and protein and will throw off the balance of it.

But i want to continue this.
Corn affecting to reduce weight ???
Answer asap.
You can continue, but you cannot only eat corn and carrots as a veg. Corn is technically a grain and nutrient dead. Sorry, it’s just a fact. Folks always go for corn, peas and carrots for veg. However keep going if you like. Sorry. Carrots are also higher in carbs, we do not say eat carrots. They are fine off plan but not now.
Good Morning,
I ate 2 apples last night.

But i will control to eat other foods.
I will follow only as per your Diet Menu.
But some of the Food items are not available in local indian market.(Except metropolitans…)
Thank you for your immediate reply.
Too much to reply to, but you are not following this diet here at all per plan. It’s 4 bananas not 6, you cannot have BREAD, you are not eating enough food, You are not subbing correctly for meat on 5 5 and 6, you are eating the wrong types of foods. Sorry. Please carefully read the comments here and each day before doing it again, you cannot make up your own plan. Sorry 🙂
Awaiting your reply
Be patient, I am on a different time zone and will reply as you can see within 24 hours. I am truly happy to help.
Hi, nearly finished day two and already a few pounds lighter. I am prepping for the following days and just wondering about the rice. Would Basmati rice be ok? Thank you 🙂
yes basmati or jasmine would be the best 2 to have.
Excellent, thanks so much for your reply. Woke up this morning (day3) and woohoo 2.1kgs lighter.
wow, nice 🙂
today is my 3 day, m strictly fallowing diet but there is no difference in weight, why???
What time did you weigh yourself, what did you eat day 2?
Hey can we have salt and spices…. if yes how much in the whole day!
Yes, with salt whatever you are used to, just never over do it. Pepper, spices, herbs, peppers, etc go for it for the most part.
i just follow the gm diet..this is second day for me….
Good luck, hope it goes well 🙂
Can I have a roasted fresh corn a day in the diet plan? I have completed 3 days of the plan. I am a vegetarian and little choosy with my eating habits. Please suggest.
No, sorry on the corn. Corn is not a veg, technically a grain.
Thank you for the quick response. I lost 2 kgs during day 1&2, added spinach and carrot in the veg soup, had it 3 times during day 3. Lost no weight after day 3. Please suggest is adding spinach & carrot to the soup the reason of not loosing any weight(as these are not mentioned in ingredients to be used in the soup ), I am little disappointed. Also to confess – I had a roasted corn in day 3. I am on the day 4 today, can soup be taken today.
Carrot not recommended. The corn was the kicker though. Folks think corn is a normal veg, it’s technically a grain and does nothing to help in weight loss, quite the reverse.
day 1 ate
melons for breakfast and melons guava and papaya for dinner thats all
day 2 ate
cucumber tomatoes and lettuce for midsnack and cucumber toamatoes and lettuce for dinner followed by roasted pumpkin
am i go doing ok or is there something wrong in what i am eating?
Well you missed the potato and butter/good fat for breakfast day 2. That was a huge miss. Other than that it’s OK, although pumpkin not a great veg choice during the program. great to eat after, has good carbs.
can we have tomato soup for dinner on day 3?
secondly what can we substitute for banana on day4 ?
and thirdly what can i substitute for beef in the succeeding days?
no, sorry
pick another fruit, it will be fine.
chicken, eggs, legumes (needs good fat like ghee or olive oil), rice (same needs good fat)
any specific reason for not having tomato soup…..because it would be home made without any oil ….
As a part of a balanced meal great. It does actually at that point, when you are eating a normal diet need good fat. You cannot have a meal without good fats. However it can mess with the carb balance of this diet. Cooked tomatoes are higher in carbs and natural sugar. FYI… So I tend to be more picky within the 7 days. 🙂 Good question though…
thanks for the reply….
just a few more questions i need to ask..
1) can i have buttermilk (curd with water and salt) instead of milk on day 4?
2) how many eggs can i have on day 5 and can i omit the yellow part on day 5?
3) can i have white rice instead of brown?
4) can i replace beef with a paneer ?
1) yes
2) Never omit the yellow, it’s where all of the good fat and nutrition will be.
3) white is great, a basmati or jasmine especially.
4) Sure can…
Im gettin married on the 23rd of this month already lost 1 stone through various diets but really want to shed another 7 pounds before wedding, starting tomoro im gunna see if this diet works. Fingers crossed feeling motivated.
Congrats on the wedding 🙂
Good luck….
How about green tea n light exercise along with gm diet plan? Its not recommended but still wanted to knw coz i hv habit of drinking green tea.. thnk U
light exercise is fine, just don;t tear down your muscles. Green tea is OK no sweetener unless it’s stevia.
Thnk U so much 🙂 started with the plan n completed Day 3…. getting ready for the next day with banana n skimmed milk 😀 Regarding weight i had 60kg with 5’3 height… Gonna check only after 7th day… 🙂
Good luck. remember to weigh right when yo wake up, after going ot the bathroom and before you eat or drink anything. This is vital to knowing your true weight 🙂
once again thnx for ur warm wishes n i knw i reduce a bit coz i feel lighter than any of my days… will let u knw how much i reduce n by chance if i dont then i will seek ur help for any changes to make in next cycle…
Happy to help, please ask any questions – anytime 🙂
Managed to get through day 1. Just wondered if I can use any soya sauce with veg tomoro and flavourings at all?
Pure dried herbs and spices are OK, sauces likely like that are not pure at all, have too much bad sodium, MSG possibly and other preservatives. Be ware of poor flavorings, they contain things that really hurt your body…
Hi,
Can i eat boiled Ghiya (Bottle gourd) on my 3rd day..
Pls reply..
Sure you can have a little, assuming by bottled you mean it does not have loads of other ingredients, sugar, etc.
Tomrw is my fifth day… i plan to have tomato n mint salad coz eating as whole will be difficult for me… so can i add a bit of oil in salad… if yes wic kind of oil i sud go for??
Oils, stay away from veg oils like canola, vegetable, sunflower and safflower. Go olive oil, ghee, butter, palm oil or coconut oil. If you are not eating meat you need oil/fat anyway since meat naturally has fat.
yeah m doing without meat… then shall i go with extra virgin olive oil??
perfect, meat naturally has fat so your replacement for meat should as well 🙂
thnk U so much… 😉
Hi… I am allergic to bananas. Can u tell me what i can eat on day 4
no prob, just pick another local easy to get fruit..
Hi thanks for all ur support in explaining to us.
I am on my 2nd day and i have list 1.5 kgs. I had soups on 1st and 2nd day and added greem chillies for taste (asbi am used to eating very spicy food). Is it ok?
Of course it is, I eat habanera on every meal literally I eat.
Hi.
Today is my first day
Can u help with types of soup I can have,
After how many weeks can I repeat the diet again?
Hello
Just a base veg soup really during the diet. No potato or tubers/starchy veg in it.
Best to wait at least 2 weeks in between plans. We do have a plan you can follow in between plans in the After 7 Days section.
I am starting my diet tomorrow. I have a long day ahead of me and all I have for fruits are pomegranate and apples. Eek
remember the soup if you need something salty…
I start tommo!
Good luck 🙂
Dear author, thanks again.
I have lost 2 kgs and today is my third day..
Would keep u posted…. i am super excited…
Eating papay right now 🙂
Millions thanks
Awesome news, keep on rolling …
Hi, can i add eggplant to my diet today?.
Basically saute in a spoon full ghee or olive oil and then mash and eat it? Is it ok?
No ghee/oil day 3. You can yes have some grilled egg plant. brushing a tiny bit of oil on it to cook should be fine.
Can I have mushrooms and olives on day 2? Also how much salt intake is preferred? Thank you.
Salt is up to you. If you over do it, the worst that will happen is your retain a little water weight for a day. Mushrooms, a few are fine. No olives until after the program.
I have a general question on eating after 8 pm. Since my work timing start from the afternoon 12.30 pm to night 9.30 pm, I get to sleep only by 12.00 or 1.00 am. Is it ok to eat @ 10 or 11 pm? I see most diets ask you to stop by 8 pm. I wake up late in the morning @ 8 am so I tend to have breakfast only @ 11 am. Is my cycle correct? or Should I change the pattern and strictly follow no eating after 8 pm or 10 pm?
Well, I will try and summarize the main points. You first have to just do your best. Yes, your circadian rhythms play a huge role in your weight loss and how you digest/heal. So it’s best to be in bed by 10:30pm and have eaten by 7:00pm to 7:30pm. These factors play a huge role in weight loss/weight gain. Stick with the plan, just do the best you can…
Hi,
Can I have roasted chana, on any day as i have this habit of munching something along with my green tea.
Also I have heard that having cucumber with green tea helps in loosing weight.
Thanks 🙂
NO roasted channa daily, sorry.
Tea is fine, no sweetener unless it’s stevia. cucumber is fine also. Quick note, little things like tea helping you lose weight, these types of things you read mostly are there to gain reader interest, I can assure you the only thing to help with weight loss is a lifestyle change. Make that first then do the green tea and cucumber last to support it 🙂
Can i eat sprouted chana or moong or peanut on any day…???
channa fine to replace meat, sprouts OK day 5 and 6 also. That’t it…
this is my second round for GM. 1st try i lost a total of 7kg. i took a 2 week break and started again. i lost 2kg on the first day, but gained it back this morning which is day 3. is this normal? i’ve been following the diet very strictly.
What time did you weight yourself? You likely did not gain it back but are experiencing water weight. Keep rolling….
here’s what i ate by the way:
day 1
breakfast and lunch was watermelon
had some grapes and pineapple for dinner
3lts of water
day 2
lettuce with vinaigrette
grilled eggplant for lunch
spinach for dinner
3lts of water.
i lost 2kg on the first day and gained it back today. i weigh myself first thing in the morning. thanks 😉
Well you first missed the best food to eat for weight loss day 2. A potato and the fat needed with it. Huge miss. You also seem to be barely eating. That’s not good either. Keep rolling though all should be OK 🙂
last 2 days were good! I’m feeling light and more energetic today!
Today I had 1 orange + 4 pieces of Cantaloup in breakfast
In lunch I had a bowl of cabage+1/4 sprouts+1 onion+3 tomatoes +1 cucumber
for eve snack, I will have a bowl of salad(cabage,cucumber,carrot,beat,shimala mirchi(chili)
and for dinner will plan to have, 2 apples and cabage soup…
Please let me know if I’m going wrong anywhere… 🙂
Awesome 🙂
Looks great – Keep on rolling…
I ended up eating grilled chicken for the last meal on day 3. Did I mess up big time?:(
yes and no. Keep rolling 🙂
Can we have plums in day 3?
sure…
Can i have grapes on day 3
yes 🙂
Today is my third day and would like you to confirm my menu
Breakfast I had 4 oranges
Had Okra chopped and cooked in water and plan to eat oranges or watermelons for dinner with the wonder soup.
Please confirm that’s fine
Please also confirm that I can replace the banana for tomorrow with watermelons or oranges and the wonder soup. Please confirm
Thanks for your help
Little too much fruit, meaning you need to throw in a little more veg other than the soup for dinner. However looks great!
soup is fine day 4. Yes, pick oranges to replace bananas.
Please confirm oranges to replace each banana.thanks
yes
Sorry mean how many oranges to replace each banana
5 total if they are large, 6 or so if smaller
Can I drink freshly squeezed pineapple, Apple and ginger juice today
1 time will be OK… although whole fruit better.
Thanks, really really appreciate all your help and quick responses. Have a good day
hi … im on 3 rd day. i reduced 1.5 kg.
shall i intake unlimited fruits and vegetables? is there anything possible to reduced more weight by having limited quantity of fruits and vegetables? if so i Am ready to do that.Pls suggest.
never unlimited fruit, veg you can have more of. The soup can actually help in losses, less is not better however never over do it.
I had wonder soup on day 3 and 2 is it fine?
yep, have it any day 🙂
Can we have baked potatoes on 3rd Day breakfast as well ?
no, not at all. Keep in mind how nutritionally different they are from regular vegetables.
i am on my day 3 of the plan, dont like plain water, so i am adding squash wiht no added suger to get bit of flavour.. will that be ok??
NO it’s not. Can you add some lemon maybe? up to you….
Day 3 was good and easy. Menu:
Breakfast – 1 black coffee, 1 mango, 1 glass of water
Snack – strawberries + 1 glass of water
Lunch: sauteed zucchini, butternut squash and broccoli + 1 cup of green tea
Snack: some iceberg lettuce with lemon juice, salt and pepper+ 1 glass of water
Dinner: wonder soup + 2 glasses of water
Now on Day 4… looks like it’s going to be the worst day of the diet. Ever.
Today is day three and had peas and other veggies for lunch..is it fine to go with peas?
NO, they are not a regular veg, they are a legume actually with loads of carbs. Fine post plan but not on days we say eat regular veg.
what about the timing of diet,coz i did not do on accurate timing,,any suggestion plz?
Not sure what you mean. If you need to swap a day or 2 you can try if you like. If you mean when you have each meal, just do your best.
Hello…I’m on day 3 today and this is what I had:
Morning-Few Strawberries…Lunch-Wonder soup…Later-Some melon
Evening-Spinach soup (was not that great but finished somehow : ( and had orange juice after that without sugar.
Dinner- Plan to have wonder soup and 1 cup of melons.
2 questions I have: a) tommorrow I can have wonder soup n 4 large bananas and 3 glasses of milk, so can i say 500 ml milk?
b) Also, on all days I’m having ginger tea with less milk n no sugar (twice a day). I hope that’s not a problem. Bcoz i get a headache without my morning tea.
Please reply. BTW i lost 2 kgs in total so far.
Orange juice is technically sugar… However fresh squeezed better for sure. If from a carton – bad choice.
1) yes on the milk, bananas and soup.
2) Well, milk is not good in the tea. However your headaches are a sign of possible health issues, so the tea technically does not help yet will pacify the issue. I mean in kind, please consider checking into potential issues. Blood sugar issues, etc.
I had done a health check up recently, n found no issues with respect to sugar/BP. Yes, but I do have a low haemoglobin. Thanks for your reply but. Will try n cut down on milk tea. N I had fresh squeezed juice, not the packed one. 🙂
Hi I started yesterday and going good till now…havent check my weight yet… Tom is Saturday and scared about the food temptations. Hope I can resist them and continue with the diet.. and btw can I have coffee?
COFFEE is OK, no sweetener unless it’s stevia…
On Day five can i use spices such as corriender powder,red chilli powder all home made..
I am on my 3 days already lost 2 Kgs 🙂
nice loss, those spices are all great. use spices as you like 🙂
All the above spices on meat.. and instead of beef i want to substitute chicken is it okay ?
yes you can…
hey, I have completed my second day but no weight loss. Is it ok? One more thing, can I take about half a cup of tea with milk and sugar if I can not resist?
What did you eat day 2? What time of the day do you weigh? No sugar and milk in your tea unless you want to gain weight.
I weighed just 15 mins before. On day 2 I took baked potato with cheese in the morning n cabbage, tomato, cucumber, onion salad in the evening and just cabbage now
Day 2 is good…. 15 minutes before what? Your true weight is first thing in the morning, when you wake, after going to the bathroom before you eat or drink a thing. You cannot weigh during the day, it does not work like that. Sorry…
does not work like what?
Meaning you cannot weigh during the day. You are weighing loads of extra food, water, etc. 🙂
Ok thnku i got it
Great, I don’t want you to be frustrated about your weight and weighing during the day will do it to anyone 🙂
And one more thing plz that we can consume the gm soup on any day of the plan. Right?
yes you sure can. it really has zero carbs and few calories. It has loads of fiber so can be eaten as you need extra food.
Ohky
Thanku
Can i eat ketchup n canned corns with gm soup?
not unless you want to gain weight, sorry… This is a pure and natural plan. No sugar or junk like what’s found in ketchup and canned corn.
Ok. Thanku
Hello, no it is not OK
Sorry
Beans and peas are not vegetables.
replace with actual vegetables.
Good luck 🙂

Hi !
I m, feeling quite low on energy and even fed up of of fruits and vegetable by afternoon…any suggestions for dinner ?? Also I feel so weak during running and gym, but guess its bound to happen !!
hello 🙂
you cannot workout without protein, so you are tearing your muscles with nothing to rebuild. Sorry fruits and veg are it.
Thanks for the advice.. I have stopped gym till the diet..feeling better 🙂
Hi,
I am confused. Why aren’t carrots not advised again? I had carrots with other veggies every time there are vegetables indicated – day1 and day3. Will this upset the diet?Should I restart?
Also, apart from the cabbage soup, can we make other soups from vegetables as we like? Since there is minimal cooking?
carrots are more carby but the main reason is that would be the only veg along with peas and corn people would eat. Diversification is key.
you do not need to restart though, all will be OK. other veg soup is fine assuming they are nutritionally similar.
I have had sprouts in my salad by mistake on Day 2. How does this effect my diet?
beans with a tiny sprout yes can cause an issue because they are beans not sprouts However keep rolling 🙂

Hi all

well every day hopefully, especially the first 4… and then the last
Greetings from Cambodia- the Kingdom of Wonder,
I’ve heard of this diet from a work friend who lost 5-6 kgs after 2 rounds of this diet (153 cm 58 kgs down to 52kg).
I’m now finishing my 3rd day with no weight loss but clearer skin (I’m 153 cm and 56.5 kgs). I’m following the diet as advised by the website, drinking 3 liters or more of water. My questions are:
1. I ate required veggies and fruits in larger portions than advised (1 cup per meal is whats advised..?). Did that impact my no-weight loss issue?
2. What day would you think Id show some sort of weight loss?
Many thanks,
Jolene
Hello 🙂
1) cut back to 2 litres of water. eating too much fruit after day 1 can cause issues
When do you weigh yourself? What did you eat day 2?
1) I realized I was eating too much fruit on Day1 because I was too hungry. Hindsight: I read that I couldnt have the wonder soup on that day, so I didnt bring any. On Day 3, I read somewhere I could have that on ANY day!:(
Day 3: Half a small melon, 1 apple for fruit,then soup and cucumber salad-Chinese style.
2) Even before the diet, I already drink more than 2L a day, but I found myself thirstier compared to before. I’m not sure if I could cut back.
3) Good side: No hunger pangs after Day2, never had any headache.
4) I don’t weigh myself unfortunately. But I don’t feel any difference. still the same bulge, but my face look less bloated.
1) yes any day for the soup.
2) that’s OK
3) nice to hear.
4) keep going, it could be water retention which should go away.
Thanks! Truly appreciate your help. I’m feeling better, feeling skinnier when I woke up this morning but bloated nighttime. 🙂
Hi There,
I just want to thank your team for your valuable inputs and help.
I have started with the 3rd day, lost a kilo already.
Thanks
Neha
nice to hear, thank you for your kind comments.
Today I am starting my 3rd day lost 2 kgs already really happy with that. Couldnt have done it without the support of this site. I knw i might have tired u with questions but that’s what is getting me through.
I tried this a year ago and didnt get through day 1 .
Thanks will keep you posted of my progress.
Always happy to help. Nice losses so far – keep on rolling…
Hi 🙂 I have a couple questions for you:
1) On Day 4, does it have to be skimmed milk? Or can it be any kind of milk (1%, 2%)?
2) On day 5, can I make a chicken soup with just tomatoes and chicken?
3) On day 6, can I eat chicken for lunch, but then switch to salmon for dinner?
Thanks in advance for your reply 🙂
Hello 🙂
1) any will work.
2) yes, you can add onion, garlic, peppers, spices and any ingredient found in the wonder soup.
3) yes you can…
Hello,
For day 2 and 3, can I pan fry all the vegetables with extra virgin olive oil and garlic?
Thanks for your reply.
yes but not too much oil…
Hi.. I just wanted to ask i am following g.m diet.. and day 1 was apple,orange,melon,guava,strawberry and 8 glasses of water ..Day 2 is cucumber,onion,pepper,cabbage, potato,tomato.. But i am constipated .. what to do and does it really work
does what really work? constipation can happen for loads of reason, especially on a detox planned especially when you change how you normally eat. fiber can be a great way to help. it has nothing to do with the success of the diet or not.
How to maintain the weight after finishing this diet?
look at the top 2 posts here and then let me know if you have any questions.
http://gmdietforums.com/forums/gm-diet-after-day-7.6/
Can i eat a mix of vegetables and fruit like fruitchat without any dressing I mean i cant eat a vegetable and a fruit ….
little confusing, not sure what you are saying. I will take a stab at it though. you can fruit chat day 3, assuming you seasoning is pure. no added sugar, msg, etc.
Some more things to ask.. On day 4 can i have knor soup mix as a flavour.. please try to reply asap
I do not recommend, the chemicals and flavorings are terrible for you. use pure organic herbs and spices and make your own blend.
Okay thanks alot 🙂
Hey hi,first of all you guys have made gm diet so easy with every minute details
Good job !!!!
I have started this first from yesterday with the weight of 57.8kg
And today is my day2 its 57.2kg …
I want to ask is there any need to do exercises
Because seriously I don’t have that much do m doing regular routine work….
Please help me
Thank you
you do not have to exercise, even if you did it has to be very light.
Can I have leafy veg and 1tsp olive oilon 3rd day for makin boiled veg recipe
sure can…
Thnx for d reply…:-)
Today is Day 3 and I started at 72.6 kg and I’ve lost 1.1kg making me 71.5 kg. So pumped and this weight loss has motivated me to keep focused so I can reach my goal.
Day 1 was the hardest and was in bed as soon as I got home from work but now my body has adjusted.
I’ve always eaten regularly so I eat a small snack of the recommend foods every hour to keep my blood sugar balanced.
Listen to your body and eat when you need too every one is different.
Good luck 🙂
can i roast come carrots on day 3?
1 or 2 only.
also, for dinner on day 3 i am roasting veggies like eggplant, zucchini, beans, mushrooms, capsicum – are they all okay?
beans are not a vegetable, unless you mean long green beans. The rest sounds good
Is it okay to have almonds raisins to keep hunger away ?
no – no unless you want to gain weight 😉
Hi,
I will be starting day 3 tomorrow and I was planning to have apple’s for breakfast…. My question is can I spruce if the apples a little by chopping them up, add fresh ground organic cinnamon, some Stevia abd heat them in the microwave to make hot cinnamon apples?
yes you can, try and pan cook your food or back though.
Hello, Tomorrow is my 3rd day, can I eat eggplants wth garlic and 1 tea spoon oil on lunch. Also add salad and boiled broccoli on lunch? II’m feeling all the time hungry. Can I eat large quantities all the time?
yes to all 🙂
One more question I couldnt find an answer in GM diet., is the total weight lost during the 7 days considered as a fat loss or a mixture of fat, water and muscle? I’m asking This because dieticians say that u can only reduce 1kg of fat per week( without exercising) all the other weight losses may be water and muscle!!
it will be water and fat, likely not much muscle at all. that is not actually scientifically correct on the fat.
Ok Thanks so much for the reply regarding my cinnamon apples question on yesterday but I’m going to aggravate you again today with another. I know it’s only day 3 & I should be patient just concerned bcuz my weight hasn’t dropped at all. It’s been very hard this year to lose. I promise I have been following directly…. Should perhaps try to add even more water? If my metabolism is sluggish how do I speed it up?
never an issue, ask away 🙂
when do you weigh? let’s start with that question first.
I weigh first thing in the morning after I use the bathroom. But also having issue with regularity I thought the extra cabbage and green would help but they aren’t I was going to try an herbal tea to help with that but wasnt sure if it’s allowed on diet. My skirt feels slightly looser today is it possible to loose body mass and the scale not move? I Still have 4 days to go so I’m not go to get discouraged yet. LOL
herbal teas with stevia are great to have.keep going, let’s see what happens 🙂
Is it ok to eat vegetables cooked with turmeric powder and chillies
yes pure dried herbs and spices are great
Thank you so much for answering my previous query.. 1 more question to ask you.. Can I have boiled eggs or omelette on 4th and 5th day? And instead of soup can I have cooked veggies?
days 5 and 6 only you can have 3 eggs per meal max instead of beef. yes on cooked veg.
No mention about hair loss ?
no, if you are losing hair, you likely have underlying health problems and should see a doc.
Hi Kevin,
Here is my Day 3 menu. Water melon 2 large cups and two slices of Mango for breakfast. 2 cups of wonder soup and few grapes(green) for Lunch. As I was tired and not feeling hungry did not have my dinner and slept off. Let me know if this is OK or do you want me to make any changes to my Day 4 menu
Well too much fruit day 3 and not enough veg, that may not be great but hopefully all is OK.
Hi, today is my 2nd day. Is it ok to consume buttermilk in between instead of water? If yes, pls specify quantity….thanks
no, not at all the same.. no buttermilk unless it’s day 4…
Today is my day 3, I started the day with wonder soup, on lunch I will have a mango, at evenening a apple and during night I will have some water melon and a cup of wonder soup..is it ok???or I am doing any msitake. I made the wonder soup according your reciepe ……please lemme know, I am really curious and working hard.
Hello
Sounds OK to me 🙂
Keep rolling, you are doing well….
My fourthday starts with 3 banans and a glass of milk, on lunch I want to have two glass of milk during dinner two banans and a one bowl soup is that ok??? Tomorrow I want to eat eggs instead of beaf or meat, how many egg I can eat in that case?
No, you get 4 bananas total. 3 eggs max per meal.
hi. i have started my GM diet plan and today is the end of 2nd day.
day 1: breakfast- apple, mango, sapota with sugerless coffee
lunch- mango, sapota, half pomegranate,
dinner- half pomegranate, papaya juice without sugar, orange, apple
day 2: breakfast- 1 potato boiled
lunch- caauliflower cooked, raw carrots and cucumber with sugarless coffee
dinner- onion carrots and cucumbers.
is this fine? didnt take any soup or oils. only water intake.
am i doing the right way or is it over doing??
tomorrow Day 3.
day 1, no juice.
day 2, no carrot and did the potato have good fat.
no, you are not following the program correctly. Sorry. This is not a fat free plan which is so unhealthy and does not work well for weight loss.
can i have knorr mushroom soup for day 3 for any one meal ?
thanking you.
no, have you read the ingredients? it’s junk food, sorry.
Day 2 and 3 , cant have carrots??
no, 1 would not be an issue
Oh!! i am so sorry….i was confused reading the whole plan and had carrots for day 2. Potato had bit of butter.
So as i had sugerless papaya juice(day1) and carrots (day2), has this ruined my diet plan. Should i start over again??
You can keep going but no juice day 2. Carrots would have been survivable. Just keep rolling and read each day carefully.
I posted a note yesterday that didn’t make it. Can author please check and post ?
Sorry don’t see one, please repost
M on 3rd day and sorry i had one table spoon rice with veggie-breakfast today :'( and also two table spoon biryani -dinner lil cheated is it okay what should i do now?
No it’s not OK, but keep going and let’s see how it pans out 🙂
Today i had 2 banana one glass double tonned milk – breakfast and workout for an hour did cardio is it okay
no not at all, sorry, totally off plan… However keep rolling…
Cardio isn’t a good for diet 🙁 or what went wrong had breakfast – two glass banana one glass milk tonned , lunch – wonder soup ,mid day – one banana and one glass milk Wonder soup planned wonder soup two glass milk one banana is it okay 🙁
1) do you workout everyday? if you tear down muscles, you must have protein to rebuild them. Rest looks OK 🙂

Hello,
Since last 6-8 months, me and my wife wanted to start this diet plan, however due to some obstacles we couldn’t do it!!! We both gained heavy wieght post marriage (2 years) of 10-15 kgs extra!!!!! we are really worried this over wieght !!
so,finally last weekend we both decided and and planned to start it by today.. purchased all possible fruits (jack fruit, water melon, orange, mosambi,papaya and apple) and green leafy veggies!!
So, we started the DAY1 with organic greean tulsi tea with little bit honey and lemon..
breakfast with 1 apple and some organge + mosambi slices,pappaya,pome granite, little bit water melon and enough jack fruit..
Lunch was same..had mosambi, pome granite, jack fruit and water melon..
Now , we are going to take the same fruits for dinner as well..
whole day we drank around 6-7 bottles of luke warm water(around 12-15 glasses)..
Till now , we are good hwever feeling little bit energyless in legs…and morever good thing(feeling) is that feeling LIGHT in the body!! Happy with this…
So, for DAY 2 to till DAY7 , my wife is planning on what to take…
We both are hoping for the best results, as we heard of this diet plan from everyone…
Our target is to reduce 10-15 kgs as soon as possible..
Please suggest to help us how we can acheive this 10-15kgs within how many diets? how many months?
thanks much..
Anil
1) you cannot have honey, basically you are drinking sugar water hence a great way to gain weight.
2) Follow the plan here carefully. Example the morning potato day 2 needs good fat 🙂
Weight loss will vary per person, the key will be after this program how will you eat? What changes will you make? I can help if you need. I truly think it’s great to have someone to do the plan with 🙂 Keep me posted please…
Followed strict diet as below
Day 1 – bf 2 small apples, lunch water melon and musk melon evening water melon juice and at 6 pm had coconut water, dinner water melon
Day 2 – bf 2 small potatoes boiled and ate with ghee, lunch cabbage soup, evening cucumber and dinner Palak boiled.
Day 3 – bf apples from day 1 lunch tomatoes and cucumber evening snack one orange and dinner cabbage soup
Day 4 – banana and milk
Day 5 – brown rice and lentils 1 cup and evening fruits
Day 6 – brown rice 2 cups one for lunch and second for dinner
Day 7 – day 6 but evening snack was a fruits.
Lost 5 kgs but question is how to control from gaining weight now ?
Nice loss. You really need a lifestyle change. I recommend sugar and gluten free to start or go all in. Look at the top 2 posts here for an idea. http://gmdietforums.com/forums/gm-diet-after-day-7.6/
hi.. i started gm diet on tuesday..i am following it as mentioned .only fruits on fist day.second day only veggies along with power soup.. i cheked my weight today .. it s same as before..from which day onwards it will reduce..plsss respond……………:) 🙂
today meaning when? morning, afternoon? on the weight?
i checked my weight in the evening of second day. it was the same. I am following only the diet and i am not going for walking, since in the evening i feel too tired after office work. whether i have to do exercise also ??.. 🙂 🙂
OH, well there ya go. your true weight is when you wake, after going potty before you eat or drink a thing. You cannot weigh at night weighing food, water and so on, sorry.
thanks for the reply.. 🙂
i wanted to know if an early morning coffee is permit able, for the course of the diet.
plain or with stevia yes
Good morning… I am on day 3 which is my fruit and vegetable day but I was running behind this morning and forgot my fruit for breakfast. Its storming really bad here so I didn’t want to run out to get more so I just purchased an order of scrambled eggs (no oil) from the building cafeteria. My question: Is the eggs(protein) going to mess up my entire day if the rest of the day I consume only the specified fruits and vegetable? Or should I take today (day 3) and simply swap it with possible my day five? … I will be able to do fruit and veggies the remainder of the day but if its better to swap that is doable to. Please help! Hope I’m not being confusing!
Hello, Just keep going, you can only do your best. Sad the cafeteria does not offer fruits or veg. Yes the eggs breaks the detox cycle however it could have been worse.
Ok thanks…. Yes you’re right, it would be nice if the cafe offered fresh fruit. Thru only offer bananas and fruit juices so I thought I’d be better off with the eggs. Maybe I will just stay on healthy eats the rest of the week and start over on Monday. I really want the full detox effect.
1. Can i have curd with salt on day 3 onwards??
2. Can i have rice from day onwards??
3. can tomatoes be cooked in olive oil and had on day 3 ?
please reply soon
1) no, just days 5 and 6 https://www.gmdietworks.com/general-motors-diet/gm-diet-indian-version.html
2) no, please read each day carefully. if you are vegetarian days 5 and 6 yes, and 7 already has rice in it for anyone.
3) yes a little sure.
Day 3 –
Breakfast – hot water with lemon, cherries and mango (could not find apples or melons today)
Lunch – Wonder soup (is it okay to add babycorn?), 2 peaches
Dinner – Steamed vegetables and mango
what do you think?
great, no baby corns
Day 2 – I had some papaya along with veggies for dinner. Will it affect the diet plan?
papaya maybe however keep rolling…
Hi. I screwed the diet on Day 3 by eating a meal(dinner). so I’m starting the diet again from the next day. Is that fine?
Or shud I do it after few days?
waiting a few days then starting may be better.
it’s fine sure.
Can I replace beef with morning star veggie patties? If yes, how many patties can I eat?
no the ingredients are way off plan.
Hi thank you fr this page. I started out with the program without planning ahead, I also haven’t come across this thread until late evening of my first day on the program.
I’m on Day 2 and with the help of this page I had been able to lay out my meals for the day. I have also planned my meals for the next 2 days and got that grocery list ready so I wont miss out on anything on the menu.
However I screwed on Day 1, it is in fact the most challenging part to me (next to Day 5 because i don’t eat raw tomatoes) because the hunger just kept coming. And I didn’t read about the WONDER SOUP until day 2.
You wont believe how expensive fruits can be in a tropical country like mine, especially organic ones. It was an abrupt decision I made to start with the program then and there, so I bought fruits in a local wet market thinking I purchased enough to last the whole day but I was wrong. SO here I am in the middle of a hot afternoon feeling dizzy – one that is unfamiliar and i was sure it wasn’t my migraine. I realized I was extremely feeling hungry and i had consumed all the fruits that i bought so i took spoonfuls of rice with “pancit ” because i was in a panic (a local noodle dish kinda oily but had a lot with veggies). but i got hold of myself thinking I cant ruin the first day! Plus i already spent some money on the fruits lol. I also haven’t check my weight before i started but i honestly feel a bit lighter, except my bloating still is still boating.
So I have listed all my queries below and hope I don’t forget anything here goes:
1) Since i flunked on DAY 1 and still carried out to day 2 how bad can this be? should go back to square 1?
2) what kind of butter are we allowed to use?
3) for fruits are raw green mangoes okey?
4) what kind of bananas are we allowed to have on Day 4 – sweet ripe bananas or the unripe ones we have to cook (boil in water)? or both?
5) is it necessary to eat raw tomatoes or can i have them boiled together with some veggies or sauteed with a bit of butter until they are mushy and be be used as sauce?
6) can i have white meat fish instead of beef on day 5 and 6?
7) what are other alternatives i can have to replace beef?
8) on the 7th day what kind of meat are we allowed to eat?
9) is it necessary to use everything organic? because the veggies and fruits that we have here are merely organic.
10 ) are crops like cassava , corn . sweet potato allowed to count as vegetable?
11) are tofu counted as a veggie?
Thank you much. will be looking forward to your response! Thanks for all the help!
1) it’s bad, the bad oils are way off plan plus this 100% killed the point of day 1 and the detox process so to speak. sorry.
2) ghee or grassfed if you can – quality always better.
3) no
4) either as you like
5) boil and cook with other veg is fine – like peppers, onions, garlic are great. sauce fine assuming you make it out of the 2 tomatoes.
6) fish great
7) other meats or 3 eggs max per meal
8) No meat, rice only.
9) personal choice, your level of what you allow to enter your body as far as pesticides, herbicides and GMO veg you choice.
10) NOPE, tubers and corn a grain.
11) Not at all, not a health food either.
Hang in there 🙂
Hi again.. I just have some additional queries (apart from the 11 questions I already asked). Sorry for asking a lot 🙂
12) ca I use coconut milk to as garnish os sauce to my veggies?
13) can smoke half a stick when i Poop (sorry for asking)?
14) my body feels weird its like I’m shaking but in not is this normal? is this due to the craving my body have and the adjustment its making?
Thanks again! Looking forward to your response! thank you!
12) not much
13) smoking just a bad idea overall with health and weight loss. be careful
14) could be, it takes 30 days to reset your dopamine levels. have a glass of coconut water
Thank you so much for the response despite all the people who drops by for a query and your busy schedule your find time to answer our questions. Now I have a better understanding of the whole program, thanks too for noting down too that it takes a month to reset dopamine levels. And the best think about this is that my kids also gets a taste of a healthy diet plan because they eat what I have prepared (eg: soup , fruits, veggie menus)
May I share this post on my blog and my page to inspire friends and family members? Thanks again! More power to you!
Sure share away. I feel really bad for kids, meaning the food supply for them has worsened so much since we were kids. It’s so much tougher, so many temptations and for parents so many tough decisions to make. Good luck and I hope this spurs on some good changes for you and yours.
Thank you. Yes I’m sure it will, I already made changes on the food I cook and lay on the table.
I already have discovered a lot in last few days. I also realized that my cravings are not towards sweets but towards savory and gourmet food, so does my kids and my husband.
I’m a good cook (so they say lol) an im into gourmet and savory. I noticed that most of the stuff I have read here about craving are pointed to sweets. What can you suggest to cope up with such cravings such as mine?
By the way, I stopped at day 4 and getting back to start from DAY 1 tomorrow because i failed on DAY1, i referred to your advise that i killed the point of day 1 and the detox process 🙂
I am pretty thankful for this page and all the support it changes lives. Thank You.
happy to help, to me savory cravings are easy, I eat ZERO grains, not even beans or rice. However I can spice up my food as I like so making dishes savory are easy to do. most pure herbs and spices are quite healthy. The key is not snacking hardly at all and eating balanced meals.
On my third day today. Lost 3 kgs in 2 days! Feeling great and hope to lose more.
awesome
Can I have one cup of brown rice on day five , half for lunch and half for dinner? Please let me know.

Are canned vegetables permitted.
not great if you must then yes
I’m on day 4. Can I have milk on my tea with no sugar? Thanks
sure
It’s my first day today and I accidentally had a bunch of grapes throughout the afternoon :/ is that bad?! I didn’t realize that was not supposed to be included on Day 1. I’m concerned this will throw me off for the rest of the week. Is there anything I should eat for dinner to balance it? Is it because they have too much sugar?
you are fine, all fruit has sugar and plenty of it so the grapes will be fine. no worries.
I am on Day 2, Can I have baked potatoes and some fruits as a part of Day 3 Breakfast.
Is it ok to have plain espresso during the diet?
Is it ok to have plain Lemon Juice (no sweetener ) in the morning before I start the diet.
Is it ok to continue drinking infused water with cucumber, ginger, mint, and lemon during the 7 days course?
No potato day 3
yes on the plain espresso
lemon great
yes on the infused water
Hi there,
I am on my day 3 of the diet, I wanted to know if I can have carrot juice on this day?
Thanks
no sorry, for future reference drinking carrot juice is like drinking a glass of sugar. if you juice a carrot is once thing but you need greens, cucumber etc to actually make it healthy.
starting day one today with 84 kg weight
prayers are with you, I hope it goes well.
On day 3 on 2nd time in3 weeks.. Had lost 5 kgs last time but stupidly gained back 2kgs. Third day today lost 2.5 kgs. Will having stevia sweetened coffee hamper my wt loss? Author please advise.

Today’s weight: 75.1
can i eat as much fruits on day 1 and as much veggies on day 2 and as much fruits and veggies on day 3? (with potato as breakfast ofcourse)
technically yes, do not over do fruit day though. Also have some veg day 1 if you need more fruit, will help.

people tend to lose better the more of it they eat
