Weight loss diets


The Glycaemic Index Diet
The glycaemic index nutrition system is reliant on the glycaemic index, a chart showing foods and a score representing the ease that the carbs of the food type gets converted to sugar in your bloodstream. The theory is that slow acting types of food (ie those foods with a low Glycaemic index score), will keep you feeling full for longer and mean that you can cut down on food without feeling you are missing out.
It is also extremely good for diabetics, as the low GI food types are beneficial in preventing 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
