@nalam virumbi.. I am shocked to see you consider me intelligent! :P
Anyway, you are absolutely right (about the diet I mean). I just jumped in on a sudden whim. Was interesting to experience it though.

And I am currently doing all that you mentioned in the second para - literally ALL :) And am seeing the results for myself. Thanks for that!

I am shocked to see an intelligent person follow such diets. This is not the way to lose weight. This is a method doomed to fail. You only end up losing your muscle and body fluids when following such diets. At the best, it might help cleansing your system.

Weight loss needs a lifestyle change - being more active, exercising regularly, and eating right food in right quantities. In short, the ways to reduce weight are - increase metabolism by increasing muscles (anaerobic exercises like weight training, eating protein rich food etc. ), areobic and cardiovascular exercises to reduce fat (jogging, swimming etc. ), understanding daily calorific needs as per your body and adhering to it, eating in moderation and replacing high calorie unhealthy food with low calorie healthy food. Also small things can go a long way - climbing stairs instead of using lift, doing household chores, playing with kids etc.

Great stuff dude..you did the diet, you lost weight and you blogged about it as well...

In my case, I completed the full 7 day diet, didn't lose even a single gram (as there was nothing else left in me to lose), and still didn't blog abt it... :(

btw, got to know from some friend of mine that it's not a GM endorsed diet...somehow it's been called GM diet from beginning...just FYI... ;)

2009-10-26T11:11:49.360-07:00

Dude!!
Even i have done GM dieting a couple of times da ...It does yield results temporarily but we tend to gain back the lost weight in a couple of weeks unless we follow it up with some exercise and a medium calorie diet regime thereafter...Ya it does give a head start...

This is an anti-climax :(

When I saw the words 'GM Diet' in your GTalk status,I thought you had begun experimenting with the recently launched Bt Brinjal.

I tried this GM diet some time last year.Reduced 1.5 kg in 10 days.Gave it up since I switched to gym workouts later.

Where is the day 6, 7 update?

2009-10-20T19:40:09.806-07:00

Never believed dieting.. I mean healthy dieting helping reduce so much weight.

I must try it once. :-) But, it would be tougher for guys like me than for a married man like you for whom missus will always take care of the diet. :-)

So no physical exercise involved in this?

You may well lose 3 kgs, but its all water loss.. and could leave u feeling tired and emaciated. Really not very worth it. Working out... now you're talking!

Vish you all the best for your diet buddy (note, and appreciate, the intended pun!)

A word of warning: for a lot of these 'crash' diets where you lose a lot of weight upfront, its mostly water loss

@mouli..
Thanks for that da! :) and great to see you have experienced this too..

@lava..
"i have no relation towards diet" - daiii.. idha nee sollithan naanga therinjukanuma!?! :)
and valid question about the weeks after the diet.. Mouli, can you answer lava's qn?

@ramya..
normally am not into such things.. I hate diets.. but this one seems rather wholesome.. and the promises and reviews were too good to simply let pass by.. :) will let you know in 4 days..

2009-10-12T13:34:20.421-07:00

I have no realtion towards diet, but i have seen some of my friends follow the GM diet. You live on a controlled for a week, but the important question is, how about after that - i mean after the week of GM diet?. It is the most important thing to sustain.

2009-10-12T11:18:49.643-07:00

Vishwa , GM Diet will surely have a good result. I had tried it an year ago. It resulted in reducing 5.6kgs in a week. The result is totally dependent on following the diet course on time strictly without any violation. You require lots of patience and should keep yourself away from Junk Foods. All the Best !
