7 days GM diet plan is something everyone wants to follow for quick weight loss. GM Diet is very popular all over the world for the fact that it leads to very fast weight loss. There comes a time in the life of every overweight person, when they are ready to follow any hardship to lose some quick kgs. GM diet is the rescuer. The original diet is full of nonveg food items and stuff you would find hard to assemble. Hence, we have worked on an easy to follow Indian vegetarian version of 7 days GM diet. Read on for more info.
This GM diet was assembled by General motor company for its employees. This is why it is named as General motor diet or GM diet. This 7 days Diet plan has many benefits because of the way it is designed.
While on a GM diet, you need to ensure that you consume at least 10 glasses of water every day. Gm diet has a strict diet regime. It may often lead to headaches, malaise, profound sweating, and weakness. These side effects can increase in cases of dehydration. Hence maintaining proper hydration will keep you off these side effects. It also helps in better cleansing of the body system.
The GM diet basically comprises of vegetable as well as fruits intake. If you are keen on following it for the week, make sure you buy a huge variety of fruits and vegetables beforehand. Including different varieties of fruits and vegetables will ensure the availability of all micronutrients to your body. This will help you sustain the monotony and keep the side effects away.
Although this diet plan is good for quick weight loss, it is preferable to follow a 45 minutes exercise/walking routine for 7 days. This will ensure that your muscles are toned as well as you lose weight from the right areas. Learn more about burning fat for weight loss.
Avoid Alcohol – Alcohol provides a hell lot of calories, leave apart the toxins it inserts in your system. Gm diet is a very low-calorie diet plan. If you intake Alcohol while following this diet, it may lead to hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) episodes. It can cause blackouts, drowsiness, and fainting.

All said and done, it’s time now to take a look at the actual Indian vegetarian GM diet plan.
On the first day of this plan, you are required to eat only fruits. The quantity of intake is not defined, and hence you can eat till you feel full.

To make this healthier, I would suggest you to –
This is your vegetable day. This function is similar to fruits. The variety ensures that most micronutrients are provided to the body. You can boil them, steam them, have it raw or make a soup out of it. You can have 1 cup of baked or boiled potato too.
The third day is a blend of the first 2 days. On this day you can have all the veggies and fruits you ate on the previous days. You need to avoid potatoes and bananas on this day.

This is a high potassium and high carbs day. This will help in replenishing your energy stores. You are allowed to eat up to 8 bananas and 4 glasses of milk on this day. you can spend the rest of the time eating fruits and vegetables or even vegetable soup (no cream).

The Smoothie day, as I call it is a blessing in disguise, after the 3 days of munching on veggies and fruits, your taste buds would love the change. Just blend a smoothie out of 2 bananas and a glass of milk.
This is protein day. You need to include paneer, curd, soy milk, soya chunks along with 6 tomatoes. The original GM diet needs you to eat 10 oz of beef, which provides around 60 – 70 gms of protein. To meet this, you need to eat either 500 Gms of paneer or you can also have 250 Gms of paneer + 20 gms of soya chunks + 150 ml curd.
If you have any confusion regarding what food to choose for this day, check the protein table under day 5 of our Indian Non-Vegetarian GM Diet Plan for Weight Loss.

I observed a good drop in weight on this day.
This day is more or less like your day 5. You can incorporate similar foodstuff in an increased quantity if needed.

On the last day, you can continue to eat the vegetables as well as fruits of your choice (avoid the high carbs ones) along with a cup of brown rice at lunch.
If you have done it all, at the end of the week you would find yourself weighing lighter than before. I observed that every time I fought hunger while following the plan, I was full of demotivation and moreover, I wanted to give up instantly. But I tried to control that emotion by telling myself that the GM diet is about restricting food groups on particular days and not about remaining hungry. So I went on to eat what was allowed until I felt my stomach was full. This at least helped me in finishing what I started.
Note – I may have modified the GM diet plan a bit here and there in the best nutritional interest of the readers.

Usha Balu
Hi Usha ,
How have you been ? long time, hope you are fine... im doing good too.
Hi Payal,
Going through your blog i thought of asking you some help for me. I have lost 13 kgs in past and I am struggling with my weight now....its now stuck around 62kg, Height is 5.3" and age is 36. I have low sugar problem too and thyroid too. i regularly workout for 45 mins to 1 hour daily. still am not able to manage my targeted weight as am unable to cut out my food (low sugar). i start feeling weak and dizzy.
Please help me......
Your body must have gotten used to the exercises and walking you do and now adjusts to whatever little calories you are intaking. this happens in a lot of cases where despite all efforts you don't lose a bit. breaking this plateau requires a lot of patience …. here is what you can do …….. exercise wise – stop doing what you are already doing for a week … and then you surprise your body with a new activity ..
for ex – you have been walking all these days, so now change your activity to swimming / Zumba dancing/skating/ gyming / playing badminton or lawn tennis … whatever suits you best. tai chi and kickboxing and pilates work excellently in such cases., I know it's hard to find time and availability of such sports around you .. but if you want to get there .. you need to find harder !!
Diet wise - Change your food pattern and eating timings. for ex . you can change the type of food you eat. if you were eating rotis , you can now change that , and introduce millets , sprouts and rice in your meals , and vice versa . change from eating wheat roti to bajra , jowar etc ... this way the body will take time to adjust to the new routine and will start losing weight again.

Can plz mention the timing wen eat plzzz

On day 4, can I substitute skimmed milk with unsweetened Almond Milk?
yes you can
Can we take protien from another sources which are not mentioned in the above table like vegetable dal etc?
the mentioned sources are better and preferred
Hi Payal
I find your blog extremely informative. On day 5 and 6 can I have vegetables like cucumber, onion to add to sprouts and boiled grams? Will the following day 5 diet suffice for the amount of protein required for the day?
9:00 - 3-4 egg white omlette
12:00 - 1 soup bowl green gram sprouts salad
Lunch and dinner - 125 gms(each) chicken with sautéed vegetables.
Evening - 1 very small katori boiled black channa
1] ye you can use cucumber and tomato and onion with your sprouts on day 5 and 6 . menu looks good
Hi payal,
Love all of your recipes :)
I read in your article that this diet reduces water weight and muscle weight first and then burns fat. Why do you recommend this diet if this is the case?
Thank you.
Anisha
Hi Anisha ,
I believe in utilizing th available information by modifying it and making it nutritious. i have done the same here . on my website you will find me taking about all western diet plans , which i have modified to make it wholesome nutritionally and at the same time to helpyou lose weight . whether it is keto , atkins , intermittant fasting , fodmaps or GM. no matter which diet you follow for weight loss, you always first lose the water weight. even with a balanced meal plan.
i have personally observed a lot of my clients who were stuck with their weight at some point in their journey , could break the lateau and move ahead with weight loss. and when this GM was followed along with a proper post Gm diet the weight they lost never came back and further continued to lose more weight. Hence i wanted to break this prejuidice. i have clearly mentoned that this plan is not a long time pln, but can be followed once in a while just to speed up your weight loss or break the plateau.
