GM Diet Review/Experience Day 3

Good morning! Without any delay:

Weigh-in: .8 lbs lost (a total of 3.8 so far)

Breakfast: a bowl of watermelon (plus a little more!) 

Water: 1 bottle (8am) on the 2nd

Oh man, I had a dentist appointment today and then was instructed not to eat anything hard; therefore, I was unable to eat fruits and veggies. I know this will skew my experience, but I'm still going to pick up tomorrow from Day 4 and see what happens anyway! 

GM Diet Review/Experience Day 2

Good morning :) Last night, I slept better than I have in months. I fell asleep immediately, I didn't wake up at all during the night, and I slept for a long time! (This may not seem like a big deal to someone that doesn't know me. But if you know me, then you know that I rarely sleep well!) So even if I choose never to do the GM diet in the future, I might do a "fruits only" day to see if there's a sleeping pattern!

Anyway, here's day 2.

Weigh-in: 3.0 lbs lost (woohoo! I know it's water weight. I know it's easy to gain it back. I know it'll make today's weight difference less than other people experience. But it's all good. It's the motivation I needed today!)

Breakfast: 1 potato with some butter, salt & paprika
Snack: 1 cup steamed corn with some tomatoes, onions and garlic (added lemon juice, salt and paprika)
Snack: 1 cup raw green beans
Snack: 3/4 cup baby carrots
Dinner: same as the first snack with some broccoli, zucchini/squash and green peppers

Water: 120+ oz.

Exercise: 2 mile walk with strength training

I must say that I had to pass so many tests today...we had a pizza party with cookies and cupcakes and cakes and brownies for my little cousin! And then I came home to find that my grandmother had made one of my absolute favorites for dinner. Oh what a long day.

Tomorrow's goal (as long as I remember to do this) is to keep it raw! I needed the savory dishes today but I think it should last me throughout the day tomorrow.

GM Diet Review/Experience Day 1

So today is day ONE, and I haven't even gotten through half of the day yet...but I'm already craving one of my absolute favorite Indian dishes. If I get through today, hopefully tomorrow will be a little bit easier. Veggies are always easier, especially because the day starts off with a potato!

I know that I haven't posted in so long, and I have to update you on a bunch of things that happened, but that's for another day. Although I can't guarantee that I'll go through the 7 day program, I do want to post what I eat and how I feel during the days that I do.

For those of you wondering: is this safe? Is this healthy? Is the weight easy to keep off? I don't know the answers to that...I've researched this many, many times in the past few years but I never seem to come up with real answers. I guess experiencing it on my own will help out.

Day 1:
Breakfast: 1 bowl of watermelon
Snack: 1 medium gala apple
Lunch: 1 bowl of watermelon
Snack: 1 small gala apple
Dinner: 1 bowl of watermelon

Water: 100 oz. (SO difficult because it kept making me have to pee!)

Exercise: 1 mile walk

Now I know what you're thinking: wouldn't having a variety make it so much easier? It might, but sometimes that gets me off track. Honestly, this is the first time I've eaten only fruits in a day and NOT gotten a headache! I also wasn't really hungry during the day, although my stomach bothered me at times. This was cured by drinking water. I didn't have any real "cravings" except for when I smelled/saw the savory dish my grandmother was making.

I shall keep you posted tomorrow!
