Does GM Diet Work in Losing those Extra Weights?

GM Diet is the world most searched diet and people just need 1 week to lose 7 kilos of weight which is pretty impressive but, is it safe? Many of the Dieticians are doubtful about this because it could raise some health concern and it is not likely a long term thing.

In the 1980s it was first introduced by General Motors to help their employees manage their weight gain problem because of the motionless work environment. The diet includes Low Carbohydrates food, fruits and vegetables and it is suggested to drink a lot of water during the GM diet because you will be losing a lot of water weight. GM diet, in short, is a very low-calorie diet with a proportionate amount of calorie intake to provide homeostatic balance.

 

What about the scenario after completing the 7 days GM Diet? You have to be disciplined in not falling back into unhealthy habits. It’s very difficult for people to control themselves from the temptation of eating junk food because of the low-calorie food intake for seven days. People fill themselves up when the 7 day GM Diet is over and they are back to the circle. When a person after consuming less calorie food switches on to high calorie after some interval they are likely to gain more weight compared to others. This is because the body gives the signal to lower the metabolism rate so that the body can regain into the healthy state.

Dietician Lisa Renn said that she wouldn’t consider this as a long term option for the people who are in for the weight loss journey. It is very important to follow something which gives you sustainable healthy eating habits for long term. But it can be also a good kick start on the journey of living a healthy life. It is suggested that before starting the GM Diet you consult a Doctor or a Health Professional who will guide you through this. Happy Health, Happy Living!
