..was fairly uneventful. I am not desperately hungry and I don't feel tired. The one good thing that has come out of this diet, if not weight loss, is how good my skin looks now..i think its all the water that i have been drinking. So even if i don't lose much weight, I can at least fuss over my skin..
Someone commented and asked me how is this a GM diet when I'm cheating my way through..well my aim was to stick to the diet cent percent. I couldn't, and so am still continuing just to see if there would be a change at all at the end of it.
Morning- a cup of coffee (the usual)
Lunch- a 10 oz burger patty, grilled.
Tea- a few biscuits (I baked these and couldn't help but delve into some right out of the oven)
Dinner- a grilled 7 oz burger patty made with lean beef, and baby tomatoes seasoned with salt and pepper and a few sips of red wine (my husband, how mean he was, to actually convince me that a glass of wine wouldn't do any harm.I fell for it initially and realised i wasn't enjoying it too much and so stopped with just a few sips)
Would have had about 6 glasses of water (less compared to the usual)
Weight at the end of day 5, 55.5 kg (duh)
hmmmm...so where's the day 6 & 7 news;-D????

ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your lovely comment on space,

We did this a few years ago - but as a foodie, you'll know how difficult it is to maintain diets, when with a little twist of a ladle, you can cook up something very satisfying :) I am doing it the hard, but tried and tested way now - back at the gym burning calories!! because I love eating!!! cheers, priya

wow! 5th day!I've never gone beyond the first day!
ReplyDeleteBut hey! I know a diet that works... was recommended by a dietician in B'lore...
1) eat small meals in smaller intervals
2) have a glass of hot water first thing in morning
#) 3 ltrs of water every day
4) no non veg for dinner
5) no refined flours, egg yolks, coconuts, minimum sugar(1 to 2 tsp) & only slim milk
6) half an hour exercise and try including lots of green tea, oats tc too :-)
I'd lost arnd 4 to 5 kgs in a month then.... do try it out... not as tuff as the GM diet :-)tc
Have done this several times. Not sure if I ever lost weight, cos I didn't weigh myself, but I am sure I compensated for any weight loss through binge eating in the days that followed.
