GM Diet - I Slipped

It had to happen people - I slipped. Today was the sixth day of GM diet, and I broke it.

I don't know, but I just could not take it anymore. Today was going to be rice for breakfast, lunch AND dinner, and just the thought put me off. I could not do it. Instead I opted for regular home-made food. Had roti after a week.

Should I feel bad or guilty though? I don't know. I know what you're thinkin..I just had one more day to go! I could have finished the damn thing. But I just couldn't do it. But I came this far...and I applaud myself.

Also, I have lost 6kgs. 6kgs..wow..my clothes are loser..and you have no idea how happy that makes me. I am planning to do this once every month, and try to stick to the whole seven days.

Would like to thank you all for being so supportive, even though I could not complete this. I will try again next month.

Thanks for reading, and supporting :) See you shortly with my regular, nutty posts :)

GM Diet - Day 5

Today is tomato and rice day. I'm supposed to eat two tomatoes, and a cup of rice today. Rice. I almost forgot what it tastes like. Let's see how today goes.

8:00 am: Woke up
9:30 am: Ate two really cold tomatoes.
11:00 am: Ate another tomato.
1:00 pm: Ate some brown rice with tears in my eyes. Rice. Glorious rice! Along with a tomato.
5:00 pm: Ate two tomatoes.
9:00 pm: Ate some more brown rice.

Delicious! And now only two more days to go! Wohoo!

GM Diet - Day 4

We're rolling to the fourth day peeps. Three more days to go! I'm gonna do this!!! Unfortunately today happens to be banana and milk day. DAYUM!!! I don't know how I will take it. Let's hope this goes better than I think it will!

7:00 am: Woke up, as usual feeling full.
7:45 am: Had (read closed my nose and gulped) half a glass of sugarless skimmed milk with one banana.
9:45 am: Had another banana.
1:00 pm: Gulped down a glass of sugarless skimmed milk, which I almost puked, along with three bananas.
1:36 pm: Chewing on gum. I'm sorry I slipped, but I can't help it! The bananas and milk are making my mouth dry and scratchy. I had to change the taste!!!!
4:30 pm: One more banana. Lips dry as hell for some reason.
7:00 pm: Banana time!
9:15 pm: Last banana of the day

That did it. Wow. It was not as hard as I had expected! Wohoo! Tomorrow is going to be a good day...cause I get to eat rice!! YAY!!! -tears of joy-

See you on the other side!

GM Diet - Day 3

Forward March! It's Day 3 of GM diet. And yes, I have some good news!! I have lost 2 kgs! (That's 4 lbs, I think!) Wow, I am happy, and even more motivated to continue in this quest!

Though there are some weird things happening to my appetite. On the first day, I was really craving carbohydrates, but today I have come to a point where I have almost forgotten what bread tastes like! I have this constant feeling of fullness, but I am also craving something. I just can't understand what, though. Anyway, today is fruits and veg day. Let's see how it goes!

7:00 am: Woke up with a nauseating sensation. Felt awfully full and like I was going to throw up.
8:00 am: Ate an apple halfheartedly.
9:30 am: Ate half a bowl of papaya. Felt extremely nauseous, so could not finish the rest.
1:00 pm: Ate another 100kgs of salad. Couldn't finish the whole thing, once again. Was too nauseous.
3:30 pm: Craving for toast and butter. Finally! I know what my body craves!
4:00 pm: Two sweet limes. Gag reflexes back.
7:30 pm: Palak and tomato soup. Bleargh.
9:00 pm: Bottle Gourd again. YUCK

Today was truly a challenge. OMG. I can't look at another carrot for as long as I am alive.

If today was bad, tomorrow is like Mount Everest for me. Banana and milk. But I'm going to be like Edmund Hillary and climb that shit!

Wish me luck!

GM Diet - Day 2

Yesterday was really really hard! I really thought I would not be able to last the day, let alone the week. But I pushed through, and I survived! Today is all veggie day, and I think this should be better (I hope I don't regret saying this by the end of the day! hehe)

7:00 am: Woke up feeling full, strangely!
7:45 am: Ate a baked potato. Relished it, in fact!
9:40 am: Ate raw cabbage. Hated the after taste, but feeling quite full.
1:00 pm: Munched on at least 100kgs of salad. Ate some beetroot, and looked like a vampire.
2:32 pm: Feels like I'm gonna puke.
4:00 pm: Had a tomato and some more salad. Can't eat anything more now or I'll explode!
7:00 pm: Drank some pretty unappetizing looking Spinach-Tomato soup. But it didn't taste so bad.
9:00 pm: Ate a bowl of bottle gourd. BLEARGH!

And that was my food intake for the day. I felt kind of light through the day, but also extremely sleepy. I think that's a good thing, cause I can sleep now to get my mind of food :)

You know, I think I'm gonna last :) 2 days down, 5 more to go!

GM Diet - Day 1

Hello peeps! It's time I did some changes in my life, given my back problem and stuff. But anyway, I don't want to bore you with that.

So let's talk about GM diet. Does anyone know about it? Well, I did some research, and found out that GM actually stands for General Motors! This diet was designed for employees of GM to help them have a healthier lifestyle. It balances out the chemicals in your body, and so help you reduce weight. My colleague tried this diet and lost 4 kgs in one week! :O The best part of the diet is that you don't have to starve yourself. You can eat as much as you want to, but only what is prescribed for the day.

So here I am, trying the GM diet. It's a one week diet, and I thought it would be nice to chronicle this 'epic' event. Today is all fruit day. I am averse to too much sweet, so this is going to be a challenge! Wish me luck, and here we go! :)

7:00 am: Woke up
7:45 am: Munched on an apple. Craving for an omelet and toast.
9:40 am: Ate an entire papaya. Craving for roti.
1:00 pm: Ate some watermelon. Feeling numb and light-headed.
3:55 pm: OMG! I really need carbohydrates!!!
4:30 pm: Ate some sweet limes like a rabid dog. Licked some salt and thanked The Almighty for creating it. Feeling a little better.
6:00 pm: Had some coconut water. Enjoyed the taste!
6:30 pm: Saw a Pizza special episode on Food Paradise. Almost died.
7:00 pm: Had some pomegranate. Felt full.
9:00 pm: Had an apple. Not feeling bad at all!

Phew. So that does it with the food intake for today. I felt a little numb and weird all day long. But right now I'm feeling good. I think I can last this week!! Hoping for the best!

I hope I can make it through to the seven days!
