0
1517
DRINK:

Have at least 8-12 glasses of water per day

EAT PREFERABLY:

Tomatoes (6), sprouts, cucumber, GM vegetable soup, lean meat (chicken breast, pork loin, beef tenderloin or fish)

DON´T EAT:

Anything else

DAY #5 = PROTEIN LOADING PHASE

The day five is finally a protein day. The GM diet calls for beef on this day. Luckily, you can choose other sources of lean meat as well:

  • Chicken breast
  • Pork loin
  • Fish

My recommendation for breakfast is a meal that is rich in fiber (preferably boiled legumes). For a lunch, you could have a cup of vegetables of your choice with a portion of meat.

For a dinner, you can have the special GM soup with a vegetable salad.

Your daily menu will also include six whole tomatoes that will provide your body with antioxidants and fiber. Additionally, you can eat sprouts as well as cucumbers. Both are low calorie and rich in water and minerals.

Protein-based meals may lead to increased levels of uric acid within your body. That is why you need to increase your water intake on day five.

SAMPLE MEAL PLAN

DAY #5

This is just our sample meal plan you can try for yourself. However, you can build one that suits you more. Just follow the rules above.

BREAKFAST
(8:15 – 9:15 AM)

For your breakfast, you can have braised beef with two sliced tomatoes. Do not forget to use basic seasonings like black pepper, lemon zest, fresh parsley/coriander, or pink Himalayan salt. Drink three glasses of water.

MID-MORNING SNACK
(10:30 – 11:00 AM)

For a mid-morning snack, you can eat a turkey patty with a tomato for a good source of protein. Drink three glasses of water.

LUNCH
(12:00 – 1:30 PM)

For a lunch, you can prepare a hamburger patty (do not forget use seasonings) together with a sliced tomato. Drink three glasses of water.

MID-AFTERNOON SNACK
(4:00 – 4:30 PM)

If you need a snack after your lunch, you can have a turkey patty (with seasonings) and a tomato. Do not forget to drink two glasses of water.

DINNER
(6:00 – 7:00 PM)

For a dinner, you can have a hamburger patty with two fresh tomatoes. Again, drink two glasses of water.

EVENING SNACK
(8:00 – 8:30 PM)

As a bedtime snack, I prefer a glass of coconut water to fight food cravings.

During this day, you need to eliminate as much of the fruits and glucose as possible before you finish this diet. You can enjoy meat as well. Just keep in mind that you need to flush out the uric acid your body will produce from digesting all that meat by drinking even more water.

OUR TIPS TO GM DIET DAY #5

PREPARE FOR A FEAST

When compared to first four days, day #5 is a feast as you are finally allowed some protein in form of a lean beef meat. Not only that, you will have a lot of tomatoes that are rich in lycopene, a potent antioxidant that can help your body fight various systemic diseases.

GO FOR SMALLER PORTIONS

When preparing your meals, rather go for smaller portions of beef as large portions could make your appetite worse and your food cravings may become too intense.

DRINK A LOT OF WATER

As you will be ingesting an animal-based protein, your body will produce a lot of uric acids. To combat this, you should increase your water intake significantly. A proper hydration will help your body to expel this acid easily.

BOOST YOUR METABOLISM

Because both bananas and milk will give you a lot of energy, my advice is to use it to improve your metabolism. Try some basic exercises but pay attention not to injure yourself.

Just keep in mind that on a low calories diet, you may feel fatigue and weakness. If you are dizzy, just avoid exercising altogether.

GM DIET DAY #5 & EXERCISES

With regards to exercising, conditions are rather similar to the day #4. Although exercising during GM diet is not recommended in general (you may feel nausea, fatigue, and dizziness), on day #5 your body finally gets a lot of protein.

That is why you may feel a bigger surge of energy so you could try to either begin or end your day with a mild exercise.

However, I do not recommend to do anything more intense than a light stretching, spot jogging, and basic Yoga poses. If you feel like you have the strength to do more, then go for a short run or walk up some stairs.

Just keep in mind that exercising is not recommended as you may easily injure yourself due to lack of nutrients while following this restriction diet.

Don’t do heavy weight workouts. Since you’re following a low-calorie (low-protein) diet, you won’t be having enough strength/stamina to do heavy workouts. Instead, perform simple Yoga poses while on the GM Diet program.
