I am on my third day and I have lost one kg by now . But today I cheated and I had walnuts and soya chips.Will it affect my weight loss adversely ???
Likely it will, walnuts are concentrated fat and chips are junk food full of bad oils not to mention soy is bad for the body and hormones. Sorry…
I cheated on day 1 i was craving for bread .. so i ate 1 slice of white bread with wonder soup at night. Will this ruin my diet. Should i restart?
Hello 🙂
Hang in there..
I will say start over, wheat will ruin your body and your weight on any given day. Yes I would start over…
May I check if I can have sun dried apricots as a snack on day 1 and day 3?
Sorry dried fruits are a bad idea…
i am only 14 years old is it okay if i do this diet ?
Please ask your parents to look over it. I cannot say yes or no, sorry.
Im on my day one. But the question is will this diet affect my hair fall rate? If so how do I control it? Does it have any other major side affects apart from the above listed?
If you hair falls out from a simple 7 day cleanse diet, you have serious to moderate underlying health issues. It’s not the diet. However the diet then is not right for you if this is an issue.
I am going gym d aerobics for past three weeks but I feel I again more weight than bfre am so confused plz help me
Working our has little to do with weight loss. Your diet, when you sleep, etc plays a much great role. I can lose wight easily and not workout at all. I am not saying not to exercise, your diet is vital.

How many days gap should be there between two GM diet my sister wedding is about to come and wanna reduce around 30kgs 🙁 pls help me out n if we eat in control after this diet will it reduce weight permanent?
2 weeks best, you can do a week wait after the first time. It can help lose good weight bit if you don’t make a lifestyle change you will on 100% of all diets out there just gain it back plus more…
hy!! m 5″4 and my weight is 70.4 kgs….want to shed some extra fat…… is this really effective ?
This diet can be very effective, however after the diet will be the true test. No diet, not 1 can guarantee a thing unless you make a lifestyle change.
Thnkw!! i wana start it frm today….. can i hv .. lemond with warm water in the morning?
and… cn u tl me the exact diet chart and schedule so that it vl b easy for me! plzzz….
warm lemon water is fine. Actually good to drink. The diet chart, look in the side bar each day is there for you.

you can workout when you like. No worries if you wake up late.
I heard this diet causes the yoyo effect
Any diet will cause a yo-yo effect if you don’t change your lifestyle afterwards. It is not worse. It actually is a very stable realistic plan. Likely the person that said that spends more time blaming diets then their dietary habits. Dietary habits and lifestyle are the issue, not a simple 7 day plan.
Can i consume warm water instead of normal water n can i also have green tea early in d morning …….der will be ny side effects
you sure can on both. No sugar though. you can add lemon to water as well.
I have normal weight but I want to loose my body fat, will this diet help me do that or will it only result in lower weight and higher body fat?
should lose it normally. evenly. will vary though if you have underlying health issues.
I am taking warm water with honey and lemon, it is good or not, while fallowing this gm diet
No it’s not good at all, essentially you are just drinking sugar water. However lemon water NO honey is great.
I am in the 4th day of gm diet did I eat 4 bananas in this day with normal milk, is I reduce weight this week
You should be fine.
U told that in day 5 with tomatoes l cup rice want to take, with rice with curry want to take please tell me
curry fine… each dish needs good fat like ghee or live oil as well.
good morning, i have belly fat and love handles. i need to lose about 4 kilos, do you think this diet will decrease my chest size? i have somehow big chest (my sister once lost hee chest while dieting) thank you in advancd
Sure, it can help, however you need time as well and a lifestyle change. Once you know how the next 7 days goes, you will know what needs to be done next and I am happy to help.
Hi, i am in the 4th day and i ate 3 of dates in the 3rd day is that okay or not?
and i did not exercised at all is that not helping to lose weight? and tomorrow i will exercise till the last day. and another Q. after this diet will i gain weight again? and i will try to reduce my food and start with healthy lifestyle.
Thank you.
dates are not at all OK, they are pure sugar. Yes you will gain weight unless you make a lifestyle change. NO diet, not 1 can help you keep weight off without you doing something about it afterwards. Exercise has to be light the first few days because there is no protein on this plan to rebuild muscle.
I have started this plan from 20 Apr 2015, now in day three.. going good.
Magic soup was modified .. I mean, a pinch of salt was added to the soup…
How much should it affect my weight reduction?
Day three I feel like food cravings are dominating me… I am hard time controlling!!!
you can have more than a pinch of salt, pepper and pure dried herbs and spices. Hang in there 🙂
Wooww, its feel so good im on a 4th days and i am felling good, back with the energy with the Banana shake and with the soup(Especially cabbage and brocoli with tomato). I just want to know if i can continue this Gm diet back to back cuz i really need to reduce 16 kg .
Im 5′ 10 and my current weight is 96kg. Please advice
best to wait at least 1 week in between you 1st and 2nd round, minimum 2 weeks after that. however that week stay gluten and sugar free, eat similar to days 5 and 6.
I am tea adict. may I take tea once or twice a day While doing “gm 7 days diet”. Will it work then also.
fine – no sweetener though unless it’s stevia
I go to gym regularly. Today is my 1st day of gm diet. I tried earlier also but due to cravings left that in between.
Is Doing heavy exercises during gm diet will be wrong.
you have no protein to rebuild muscles the first few days so no heavy workouts.
Hi since it is peak summer here in India, is it okay if we have a cup or 2 of yogurt/buttermilk, everyday while following the diet.
no, not at all actually. sorry.
I am 5’1” and my weight is 55 kgs. Should I go ahead with this diet?
based on your health issues if any up to you 🙂
Hi, just got over with the second day of my diet and i don’t seem to have lost any weight till now. Is that normal? How early should i expect to start losing weight?
when are you weighing? how do you know?
Hi, weighed myself in the morning on the thrid day. Only 300 grams lighter. I weighed 65kgs and now i amt at 74.7 after two days of following the diet. From Which day should i expect to see some substantial weifht loss?
what did you eat day 2 and 3….
64.7*
hey…i have big thighs …will gm diet help me to reduce my thigh fat???
it can, however normally when someone carries their weight mostly in one area it’s a sign of underlying health issues for example high cortisol, estrogen dominance, etc
Hello
Today is my fst day of GM DIET its afternoon now n going good till now little down with my energy level I wanted to ask can I have milk tea once with some salt plz suggest
tea and stevia fine, I do not recommend milk. However a tablespoon would be OK… hang in there
On fifth day can i have chapati without oil,instead of brown rice
No not unless you want to gain weight. Trust me you would be better off with a good oil like coconut oil or ghee than the wheat. Wheat is a junk food and will do nothing for your health, Here is what you can have. https://www.gmdietworks.com/general-motors-diet/gm-diet-vegetarian.html
Hi,
Want to shed some weight off my tummy. Will GM target that or will it eat into the muscle mass ?
Can you please shed some light over it.
Neelu
this is a short detox plan (3 days), eating into muscle will vary per person but it should be little and yes it targets fat, That’s what’s great bout this plan, it does not detox long enough to really affect muscles too much. You will lose water weight (any diet this happens) and should hopefully lose some good fat.
Please let me know how to maintain after completing 7 days. i have tried this GM diet twice but later could not maintained. pls help
read the top 2 posts here. A lifestyle change after any diet is a must, let me know if you have any questions. http://gmdietforums.com/forums/gm-diet-after-day-7.6/
Hi..i m going gym from last 1 month, but have lost only 1 kg aftr following proper diet plan and once i have done this gm diet but i dint lose even 1kg..why it happened?
Should i do it again?
When do you weigh? What did you eat days 2 and 3?
Hi is there any substitute to milk as I cannot tolerate milk
sure, almond milk, rice milk or a light coconut milk.
Hey,
I have completed 3 days of my diet and have lost only 1 kg. Infact, on day 2 I lost 1 kg (my weight 55.67kg) and on day 3 my weight went up to 55.77kgs. I am following the diet completely, no cheats or deviations and I am not even consuming salt. Is this normal? I am a little disappointed and demotivated to continue. Please suggest.
what did you eat day 2? Why no salt? you are likely retaining water and totally bloated. salt, a quality salt is needed.
I had watermelon, pomogrante, cantaloupe and papaya on day 2. I thought salt leads to water retention which is why didn’t consume salt
oops that was Day 1. Day 2 I had a baked potato, corn and peas salad, 2 carrot, sprouts salad and cucumber and tomato
having No salt ( a quality salt) is a great way to mess up your health and bloat and retain water. Second looking at day 2 you are not reading the program carefully here at all. This is not the plan hence why you are not at all showing weight loss. So sorry. I suggest reading each day here very carefully. Too much salt yes can lead to water retention, but this only if you have too much.
I tried GM diet 2 Times, in ana interval of 1 week. In first GM Diet Session I lost 3.5 Kg & in second 2.7 Kg. But, I gain weight around 3kg, in a week after GM diet plan ends….Could you suggest , what should be the diet plan I should follow now ??
Thanks in advance
what do you eat in between plans. on any diet, 100% of them a lifestyle change will be needed afterwards or else. then happy to let you know a possible good plan
Thanks for your prompt response….I had simple coffee & tea with sugar & wheat ( chapati) apart from regular vegetables. A such no fatty stuff…Please help me to guide with a good diet plan ( I am vegetarian)
well fat, good fat is amazing for you and vital to weight loss, your hormones and good health. sugar, especially drinking it, and wheat are great ways to again weight. look at the top 2 posts here. http://gmdietforums.com/forums/gm-diet-after-day-7.6/
then let me know if you have nay other questions.
i am on my 4th day and i lost 3kg till now, if i exercise would it help reduce more weight ?
and can i follow the GM diet next week too ? or do i have to leave a gap? because i really need to lose weight
exercise lightly and it may help a little. Give it a week or so gap however you can follow this plan, look at the top 2 posts. http://gmdietforums.com/forums/gm-diet-after-day-7.6/
Hey can I eat red beans on day 5 instead of rice. And what about this gm diet during periods??
Sure with some good fat go for it. Periods can affect any diet due to hormones being off….
Hi..i started with day one and till eve had apples throughout, for dinner I had one apple with 2 mixed fruit juice and little sprouts..Is it ok for a beginner?
No sorry 100% off plan, you are missing the point of the diet by altering it. Sorry.
hi.. I am on day 2 and seem to have retained water a lot as I feel bloated too much…. what do u recommend?… I followed the diet completely.. no cheating
having salt? did you have good fat with potato for breakfast?
I cannot eat tomatoes. I will probably end up puking after the first bite. Are there any other alternatives for tomatoes ?
Will I gain back after the GM diet is over? On non diet days I consume 1500 to 1800 calories and spend half an hour in the gym . With this lifestyle, will I be able to maintain my new weight ?
sure pick another veg no problem. No, not at all actually, you cannot live on that many calories and you cannot workout daily. please read this article http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2015/09/20/what-caused-obesity-epidemic.aspx?e_cid=20150920Z1_DNL_art_1&utm_source=dnl&utm_medium=email&utm_content=art1&utm_campaign=20150920Z1&et_cid=DM86124&et_rid=1128943594
