The GM Diet Plan : DAY THREE

I lost another 2 lbs! For a total of 3lbs so far! :D

Yesterday was so much easier than day one, but today so far is my favorite!!

TMI though, I woke up with the WEIRDEST morning breath ever. I dunno if it has ANYTHING to do with this cleanse, but it was odd.

Anyway, I digress.

Day Three

A mixture of fruits and vegetables - all the salad that you can eat day! No bananas and no potatoes. Day Three prepares the system to start burning excess pounds.

So today started off with me finishing off all the fruit I had leftover from Day 1. It consisted of a lot of strawberries, cherries, an apricot and an apple.

For lunch we made a big huge greek salad. You can find my recipe here.


Obviously we omitted the copius amounts of feta cheese, and I was a little lighter on the olive oil, and added a bit more lemon, but it was basically the same.

Dinner was my favorite. I did another veggie stirfry, but this time I used a lot more vegetables.


This has virtually no fat! Mmmm! Onions, garlic, carrots, sugar snap peas, zuchinni, summer squash, and asparagus (fresh from my garden), lightly sauted in olive oil and a pat of butter, then seasoned with fresh cracked black pepper, and lightly salted.

We got better corn and boiled it this time, and it came out much better.


To make it this way, simply put corn into a pot of cold water, and let it come to a rolling boil. It should take about 10 minutes, but you could cook it for as long as 20. I didn't do it this time, but usually I will add a pinch of sugar to bring out the natural sweetness in the corn. DO NOT salt the water, it will make the corn tough.


So my dinner consisted of, leftover lunch salad, veggies and corn with spray butter and sriracha rooster hot sauce! Can I get an ON NOM NOM?

I am soooo not looking forward to tomorrow.

The GM Diet Plan : DAY ONE

So, we have decided, for months now, to do a cleanse. I asked around, I looked at cleanse products, and then Kristi stumbled onto this.

General Motors Weight Loss Diet

The website claims "The General Motors Weight Loss Diet was developed for the employees of the firm. However, the diet proved so useful that the world cannot stop listing its benefits. Along with being a perfect recipe for a fast weight loss, it also helps detoxify and cleanse the system."

So we had to try it.

I'm going to blog about the 7 days to come. Which will also help me get motivated to blog more.

Today was Fruit. Here are the rules;

Day One

Eat as many fruits as you want. No bananas though. If watermelon or cantaloupe is available, take huge quantities of it. Watermelon will enable you to lose 3-4 lbs on the first day. Day One would prepare the system for the week to come.

So we went down to the produce market and grabbed a TON of fruit. Seriously. Below is what we got...

*Honeydew Melon
*Cantalope
*Anjou Pears
*Apricots
*Gala Apples
*Green Grapes
*Seedless Watermelon
*Kiwi
*Bing Cherries
*Strawberries
*Pineapple

We the washed all the fruit and then we cwunched it up...

...and we cwunched it up....


...and we cwunched it up.

Now I have a belly and a fridge full of fruit. No bad side effects yet, except for the fact that I have this INSANE dry mouth and I'm craving coffee like nobody's business. Tomorrow is Veggie day, so I will be able to get this sweetness taste out of my mouth. Below is the finished fruit salad before we divvied it up and parted ways.


I have about 8 more glasses of water to drink, so I think I'm going to go watch my shows and eat some fruit.
