The Glycaemic Index Diet
The gi index diet system is linked to the glycaemic index, a list showing types of food and a score representing the ease that the glucose in the food type gets converted to sugar in the dieters blood stream. The believe is that slow release foods (ie with a low Gi score), keep you satisfied for a longer period of time and mean that you can consume less food without craving snacks all the time.
It's also beneficial for people with diabetes, as the low GI foods are useful in minimizing increases in blood glucose secretion.

"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
