Lose your weight and burn fat faster within 1 week using The General Motors (GM) diet plan. This was created for the employees of General Motors in 1985 with the help of the US Department of Agriculture and FDA and testing at the Johns Hopkins Research Centre.
This is a 7-day strict diet plan that will reduce body weight and burn fat faster.

This plan really good for If you are obese or need to reduce some weight.
Also, the plan is really hard to follow but the results are guaranteed. I have tried this and was able to reduce 3kg of my bodyweight of mine. So the more you stick & more you get.

Warning:

  • If you are already following a diet plan don’t follow this.
  • If you are pregnant, on medication, and having other health issues don’t follow this without any doctor’s approval
  • Do not follow the diet continuously. This is only for one week. You can start it over after one month.

Before you Begin

I was able to do this because I have past experience with diet plans. If you have none, get ready for the GM diet plan by reducing your meal portion for 1 or 2 days and then start.

Mental power is also a key factor here because without that you’re more likely to ditch the plan easily. So stick to the plan.

Stay hydrated and drink 8 – 12 glasses (Approximately 2Ltrs)  of water every day.

Exercising is not required but it’s recommended to do the exercise for at least three days. I did cardio every 1-2 hours including staircase climbing, treadmill, cross trainer, rowing, and cooling off with cycling.
In my opinion, I recommend doing the exercise for greater results. If you don’t have access to a GYM you can always search in Youtube and follow a good “1 Hour cardio workout”. I have added one below.

Here is the meal plan. I have listed down what are the foods that you can consume during this week and go through and prepare for the week.

Good luck and start the diet with the thought that I can do this and I can reduce my weight and you will be amazed at what you can achieve in 7 days
