The Glycaemic Index Diet The gi index weight loss regime is linked to the glycaemic index, a list of types of food and a score illustrating the speed that the carbohydrates of the food type gets converted to sugar in the dieters body. The claim is that slow acting types of food (ie those food types with a low Gi number), keep you satisfied for a longer period of time and help you to consume less food without being miserabl;e. It's also extremely good for individuals with diabetes, as the low GI food types are beneficial in preventing surges in blood sugar levels. The Atkins’ Diet Now nearly 5 decades old, the atkins diet achieved most of its fame during the last few years. Although not accepted by all scientists, it allows weight reduction whilst allowing many foods that are not normally available to dieters, eg beef and egg and cheese. On the atkins diet you are supposed to eat fat and protein, avoiding carbohydrates almost completely. Because of this, it is known as a high protein, low carb, diet system. With this diet, the foods you should avoid are processed and refined sugar, milk, white bread, starchy vegetables, white rice and white flour, including, but not limited to, cereals and pasta made from white flour. With the atkins diet the foods you are encouraged to eat are nutrient-rich unprocessed foods like meat, fish and poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter & olive oil.

"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
