Hello guys!
Sorry been out for quite sometime and hindi na naman ako nakapagblog. Alam niyo na minsan busy din talaga ang lola niyo. Ang dami ko pa nga palang utang na kwento sa inyo about my Hongkong Adventure. Kasi naman hindi ko talaga maisingit pa na matapos ko lahat ng kwento ko about that. Pero promise before the end of this month mababasa niyo na talaga ang aking kwento about Expoloration in HK.
Anyways, I have a kuwento guys about my adventure now. I am now trying this so called GM Diet. It was recommended to me by my OB-Gyn when I visited her two weeks ago. She told me to search it in the internet and give it a try.
So ang lola niyo, masyadong masunurin kaya mega research agad and after a week, decided to try it. Kaya ayun last Sunday I finally decided to give it a try and as of this writing I am now in my fourth day and so far ok naman pa ang pakiramdam ko.
To give you a brief information about this Diet;
General Motors Diet or commonly known as GM DIET was actually been around for 28 years already. It was founded for the employee of General Motors. It is a 7-day diet plan and according to what I have read it actually promise was to hit 10-17 pounds weight loss per week.
The GM Diet is a seven-day weight loss management plan that consist mainly of fruits and vegetables and restricted amount of meat and you may want also to try the Wonder Soup that was suggested which you can have during the whole diet period. To know more about GM Diet you can visit this site: http://www.gmdietworks.com.
Here is the meal plan that you need to follow, in case you want to try GM DIET:
DAY 1 - All fruits day. It is advise that you consume more of watermelons and cantaloupe. No banana for the day. On the first day of the diet plan your body will be subjected to detoxification.
For my Day 1 - i had mix fruits which were composed of apple, cantaloupe, grapes, pears and orange. I started my day by jogging-walking at Sampalok Lake. I made sure that I drunk a lot of water at least 8-10 glasses. I did not prepare the wonder soup as I feel I cannot consume the same.
DAY 2 - All vegetables day. You may start the day with a large baked potato with a pat of butter on top and then for lunch and dinner the meal must be lighter.
My Day 2 was indeed a challenge to me. It was the birthday of one of the partner in the office and he treated the office staff for a buffet lunch. So imagine how hard it is for me to control the temptation of not eating those delicious food. But fortunately I was able to handle the situation.
For my breakfast, I consumed a cup of mashed potato - no sugar and milk added. I just put salt to taste and combined it with 1 1/2 glass of warm water I also had a cup of black coffee (no cream, no sugar as prescribed by the plan). In between breakfast and lunch I consumed mixed carrots, green peas and corn which was cooked only in water and then for lunch I had vegetable salad composed of lettuce, cucumber, cabbage and tomato together with it I had mushroom saute in garlic. Come dinner time I had mixed vegetables "chopsuey" which i just saute in a small amount of olive oil and put some salt to taste. Kinain ng office mate ko wala nga daw lasa ang pagkain ko. hahahhaa
In my Day 3, I started my day with mixed vegetables - actually there is a little cheat on it as said I was not the one who personally prepared the said vegetables hence an ordinary oil and seasoning was used in cooking it but still it was vegetable. (hihihihihi) In between breakfast and lunch, I had grapes and apple. For Lunch, I ate mixed vegetables and had apples and grapes on the side. During merienda, i ate orange and grapes.
At Dinner, my two anak-anakan who are both engaged and soon to be married fetch me at the office. They brought me to Chocolate Kisses Restaurant at Roces Avenue, Quezon City. Kamusta naman di ba? Puro high-calorie food yata ang nakita ko sa menu nila plus cakes bawal yan for the day. Buti na lang they have salads in their menu so i ordered Mixed Green Salad with Balsamic Vinaigrette dressing and Cream of Mushroom Soup (another cheat for the day - but at least it was still vegetable, i just removed the crouton toppings. Para daw hindi boring ang food ko Mhelai and Steph put some grapes on top of the Mixed Green Salad. So here's what I have for dinner:
I had my midnight snack too. I ate an apple and few pieces of grapes. Alam niyo naman kailangan ko ng enerhiya hanggang kinabukasan kasi my work called for it.
DAY 4 - BANANA, MILK and VEGETABLE, SOUP. According to the internet, Day 4 is the easiest to prepare.
I started my day by consuming one banana paired with glass of 0% FAT Milk. Wala kong mabiling Skim milk kasi kaya i settled for that. Pero dapat Skim Milk talaga daw ang iconsume. I will try to look for one later for my dinner and midnight snack siguro.
At 10:00 A.M. - I ate one piece of banana, sliced into pieces on milk. For Lunch I met a friend so it is another struggle to me buti na lang Kenny Rogers Restaurant have this Healthy Option food. I ordered their Salad and Soup Meal. Another cheat, i have to ate the soup, which is a chicken noodle soup, but i did not consume the noodles and the meat included in that soup. I forgot to take a picture of it. nakakahiya kasi sa kausap naming client. (hehehehe)
Di pa tapos ang Day 4 ko. currently I am in my Day 4 ngaun. Will consume another bowl of banana and milk in a while para mabusog naman ako. hahahaha.
For Day 5 to Day 7 here are the foods that your need to consume while on the plan.
Day 5: FEAST DAY! Beef and tomatoes. You may eat up to 20oz of lean beef today. (Steak, Roast, Ground Beef...) And 5 whole tomatoes. Drink an additional 2 glasses of water today.
For the fifth day I plan to order my food at the Sexy Chef. Pero depende pa din if hindi kami tuloy ng client ko sa meeting namin sa Gapan, Nueva Ecija. Maybe di ko masunod tong diet na to on that day pero i will try my best na masunod pa din ang food plan for the day siguro with a little cheat pa din.
Day 6: Beef and Vegetables. Today you may eat an UNLIMITED amount of beef and vegetables.
I already ordered my food at SEXY CHEF. Just waiting for their reply. I will have Korean Beef Barbeque with Sesame Kangkong; Garden Vegetable Soup; Greek Salad with Lemon Vinaigrette and Salisbury Steak with Cauli Mashed Potato. That will be my lunch and dinner on Friday. If kulangin, i will buy na lang salad outside.
Day 7: Brown rice and vegetables. Eat to your hearts content. Drinking fruit juice on this day is also encouraged.
For Day-7 since asa bahay naman ako nito I will just prepare my own food na lang. Magbibilin na lang ako sa mommy ko na bilhan niya ako ng gulay for that day para un ang kakainin ko.
I still have three (3) more days to go. Kaya ko pa naman. So far di naman ako nagcrave na for rice and kinakaya ko naman na di ma-tempt kumain ng bawal na food. Some of my friends were asking bakit daw binigla ko ang sarili ko at parang dinedeprive ko naman din daw ang sarili ko sa food. My answer, hindi ko dinedeprive ang sarili ko sa food. Kakainin ko din sila in time. Seven days sacrifice lang naman to. I been a food lover all my life. kaya nga ko tumaba ng ganito. Sa hindi nakakakilala sa akin i'm sure wala lang sa kanila kung gaano ako kalaki ngaun kasi they are probably thinking ganyan talaga na kong kalaki. Pero hindi eh, payatot ako before, i have "puson" na before pero hindi siya ganung kalaki. Never did I experience na may magtanong sa akin before if buntis daw ba ko. Ngaun madaming beses na kong napagkamalan na buntis. I gave birth already through a ceasarian operation and hindi naman ako umaasa na babalik ako sa dati kong katawan.
I am doing this just to feel lighter. Hindi ko man aminin sa ibang tao sa sarili ko alam ko na mabigat na ko. Nalulungkot na din ako if di ako nagkakasya sa mga dating damit ko.
To give you an idea how "payatot" i am before i gave birth. Here's my pictures
