GM Diet Day 2 Menu: All Day Vegetable Fasting for Weight Loss

Similar to the Day 1, where you’ve been on a strict fruit-only diet, the GM Diet Day 2 is limited entirely to vegetables.

You can eat all sorts of vegetables on the Day 2 of GM Diet menu and there is nothing to avoid in the veg-section.

By eating vegetables, you’ll be getting more fiber and they also help in regulating the sugar content which is deposited on the Day 1.

Try to include a variety of green leafy veggies like Spinach, Coriander etc… along with other high water content vegetables like broccoli, cabbage, pepper, tomato, onion etc… in your diet.

How to Prepare Your Body for Day 2 of GM Diet?

Unlike the first day where you would feel lightheaded due to less intake of carbohydrates, Day 2 would make you feel much better.

So, you should eat more Melons for dinner on Day 1 so that the energy you gain from eating the dinner will last long until the GM diet day two.

Unlike in day 1 where you’re restricted to eating Bananas, on Day 2 you can have almost all vegetables even those rich in starch, such as potatoes (in limited quantities).

The 2nd day GM diet routine will give your more energy and you can also perform strenuous activities and HIIT exercises if you wanted to.

GM Diet Day 2 (Sample Meal Plan)

For best weight loss results, it is suggested to eat vegetables that are high in water content and fiber as they fill you up very easily without adding many calories.

Best foods to include on day 2 – Broccoli, Cucumber, Cabbage, Carrots, Tomatoes, Lettuce, Potato

Breakfast: Start your breakfast with a large boiled Potato and it would keep your stomach full as well as the body gets energized for the rest of the day. People who live in the tropical countries may consider Cassava or Sweet Potato instead of the regular Potato. However, they should be careful not to add any sugar to the meal.

Lunch: This should be lighter. You can have vegetable salads made of Cucumber, lettuce and Cabbage. You can also dress your salads with Vinaigrette or Olive oil but not to use Mayonnaise as it would add some extra fat.

Dinner: You can have fresh greens that include Broccoli, Cabbage, Lettuce, Asparagus and Cucumber. Additionally, you can have boiled beets but many feel beets to be heavier on their stomach.

Along with these, drink enough water throughout the day. In case of heavy hunger pangs, you can have the wonder soup made of cabbages, carrots and tomatoes.

The above mentioned vegetarian meal plan is just a sample menu for you to get started with the diet easily.

Once you get accustomed to the program, you can plan your own schedule using the suggested vegetables.
