Now add the roasted karela mix well Push aside the subzi and increase the heat now add sesame seeds let it get little brownish , mix well N cook for 5 more mins and cover it let it cool the karela will absorb the sweet taste of onions nd tomatoes ……..
Your Oil less karela subzi is ready
Can we add honey , figs and dates to milk. Shake………..
Can we have dried dates , figs for midday snacks
What abt roasted peanuts , almonds, pistachio, walnuts
No, no and no. Sorry, I would not recommend either, that’s pure sugar, tons of fructose, stick to the plan 🙂
today is my 3 rd day in GM diet which seems to be very difficult for me 🙁 cause i cant drink milk without sugar. Is there any altenative for this can we add 1 tsp of sugar in milk.
almond milk or coconut milk, NO sugar in milk, this is why or one reason your weight is a struggle. You have to stop.
can we add boiled ground nuts along with the corn and veggies… Please suggest me
no nuts or seed, no
I’m on day 2. Can I add tofu on my sprouts on day 2? I’m on day 2 today. appreciate a reply. 🙂 thank you

Hi,

Just one question to author, what is the alternative for brown rice and beef in Indian recipe
thanks
https://www.gmdietworks.com/general-motors-diet/gm-diet-indian-version.html
here are some suggestions
hi author,
Today is the 2nd day of my diet. is it ok to have small qty of shredded chicken with the salads? on the third day can i have the chicken soup for lunch mentioned in your recipe? Appreciate you quick response.
no. best to stick to the plan. adding chicken to the wonder soup is fine when meat is called for yes.
Can i have bottleguard juice every morning empty stomach along wid dis diet plan??? Please reply soon
bottleguard? what’s in it? I don’t think so but let me know.
Bottleguard(Lauki…)
Nah, stick to the plan, you can always have some after.
Ok thnxxx and today z my fifth day and i didnt loose a single kg… I dnt undrstnd why?
what did you eat yesterday? any wheat any of the days eaten? bread? Sugar?
Hey .. Can i drink the soups available in market .. I mean packed ones .. ?
Instead of wonder soup ..
Well assuming they are pure, no bad oils, no processed ingredients, no msg type stuff, no sugars. It’s not likely.
I am on my Day2, and had 1 boiled potato in morning, and had raw salad with corn, green pepper, broccoli, lettuce, carrot in afternoon. can I have saute of corns+green pepper+onion+tomato+ some salt in olive oil in dinner time?
a tiny bit of olive oil and please stop the corn….
Oh! I had lots of corn today in my day 2. 🙁
yah, if you look at that recipe, it’s only a 1/2 cup, I will change it to 1/4.
Corn, major issues.
1) technically a grain
2) so genetically modified
3) Nutrient dead, what benefits does it really have?
4) Most people don’t realize they are either allergic or sensitive to it.
Try and not do any more, you will be OK 🙂
Hey..cn I have sprouts roasted with little oil?
N cn u give me a- alternative to sugar in milk..n I’m in day 3..
Will help me a lot if u reply:)
CAN I TAKE 5TH DAY BROWN RICE INSTEAD OF CHICKEN BECAUSE HERE PUJA IS GOING ON ON THAT DAY AND AGAIN 6TH DAY CHICKEN ???
yes, you need some fat with that rice though, meat has fat, so should the rice, some curd, butter or olive oil could work.
Hii author,
I am on day 3 of hm diet and i am following it as strictly given in the diet chart but today i had 2 chappatis(roti) with a lil of potatoes…hope this doesnt affect my diet…would appreciate ur reply.
Thanks
It likely will, wheat (gliuten) basically is trash to your body. and we say not potato day 3. Sorry. If you want to lose weight cut gluten and sugar. If you continue eating bread, you will gain weight.
I m on day 2 , you have said 8 to 10 glasses of water, can I have more intake of water like 4 Ltrs of water or no ?
be careful drinking too much water, it depletes your body of minerals and can harm your kidneys. Please, 4 liters seems way too high.
Quinoa great, legumes/lentils great, Tofu I would never recommend (processed beyond anything good), yogurt yes can work. The legumes and quinoa need some fat like ghee. Yogurt already has it. You can take another 1 or 2. Beets and carrots are slightly higher in carbs than normal veg. Just do without during the 7 day plan, eat away after.
I am on my second day of GM diet plan. Can I eat corn? If yes what can be the quantity ?
No corn, sorry. If you did have it in a dish, it would be about an 1/8 of a cup.
Hi, Can we have mushroom subzi on the 2nd day of GM diet?
Assuming the ingredients are GM Diet friendly yes 🙂
Also, can we have lassi with banana instead of milk?
Assuming it’s only yogurt, fruit and spices yes. It cannot have sugar…
Hi
1)can I eat sprout moong in day 1,2,3 and 4?
2)can I eat buttermilk in day 1,2,3,4? (which made from 1% milk with lot of water)
3)can I drink plain fat free milk all 7 days? how much ?
4)can I drink moong dal water(I boil moong with water and drink only watery part with some spice in it)
thank you
1) You can have some in accompaniment with other veg.
2) No, just day 4.
3) No
4) No
Sorry, these really will alter the plan…
Can we have roasted chick peas on day 5..I just had a hand full of chickpeas roasted with a grapefruit.. Can’t have meat in the morning 🙁
no, not technically. Sorry. You were supposed to eat meat (or vegetarian sub) and tomato. So not sure where you got grapefruit. Keep rolling though all should be OK 🙂
Hey
can I hve sprouts on my scnd day and 3 day of my gm diet..
pls rply asap
tnx 🙂
No, assuming they are beans with a tiny sprout. Those are not vegetables.
Can we eat boiled corn ..on day one i just lobe it so much
I hate that it;s in this recipe. So no if you want to get your health back. It’s a common allergen and not at all technically a vegetable. However most folks don;t care and will eat it anyway so it’s up to you. 🙂
I am entering Day 2 Tomorrow:
Can I boil the vegetables and eat ?
I am planning for 1-1!/2 Potato boiled and smashed with some Butter and lil Salt and Pepper to Taste for Breakfast
Lunch – A salad with Tomato, Cucumber, Lettuce, Onions, Jalapeno, Olives & Coriander leaves with some curd (lil to taste), some pepper & salt
Dinner – Boiled vegetables – Carrot and Beans Combination
Please Suggest
Yes boiling veg is fine. Also spice as you like.
NO CURD! Please do not take liberties as you like with this plan,, It does not work that way.
Why beans? So basically you want to eat carrots and beans for dinner, hence pure carbs? You do know beans are not a vegetable and are nutritionally 100% different. You get only veg, low to no carb veg and a little fruit.
Can i do G M diet for the full month is there any side effect of this
Not that I know of… However it’s not meant for that, so it’s up to you.
Hi…
Please suggest me.. can i have roasted paneer in gm diet. also let me know, vegetables should be steamed oil less or i can have vegetables prepared in olive oil with indian spices.
spices, herbs, etc are of course OK.
you can have the paneer days 5 and 6 with good fat so yes olive oil is OK.
I add salt to vegetable on day 2,5,6 n 7..please advice
sure, add alt, pepper, and pure dried herbs and spices.
hey, i had 7-8 kernels of almonds with some raisins on day 2, will it affect my diet?
sure it can, if you have weight issues, snacking like that is not good. however hopefully in this case you will be ok.
Hi,
On my second round on GM diet in last 2 months. Working like wonders for me. Lost 3.5 kg in the last round and already lost 2kg for current session on day 4.
Have a questionnaire, plz mark yes or no (I know it’s too lengthy, sorry for that)
1. 1 full mango, allowed or not
2. I like stir fried veggies so using half a teaspoon of olive oil. Is it good
3. Sprinkling some soya sauce with no msg on veggies.
4. For day 5 onwards, can I stir fry paneer (Indian cottage cheese) coated with yoghurt and spices in lil olive oil. Is it ok
