The Glycaemic Index Diet
The gi index diet is based around the gi (or glycaemic index), a chart showing types of food and a score illustrating the ease that the carbs of the food type gets converted to sugar in the dieters system. The believe is that slow acting foods (ie those foods with a low Glycaemic score), suppress your appetite and mean that you can consume fewer food without craving snacks all the time.
It's also extremely effective for sufferers from diabetes, as the low GI food types are useful in controlling surges in blood glucose amount.

"A good cook is the peculiar gift of the gods. He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate, from the palate to the finger's end.
"Walter Savage Landor"


"A diet is the penalty we pay for exceeding the feed limit."

"Reality check: you can never, ever, use weight loss to solve problems that are not related to your weight. At your goal weight or not, you still have to live with yourself and deal with your problems. You will still have the same husband, the same job, the same kids, and the same life. Losing weight is not a cure for life"
Phillip C. McGraw
