Weight loss diets


The Glycaemic Index Diet
The glycaemic index diet is linked to the gi index, a chart showing types of food and a score illustrating the ease with which the glucose and energy in the food gets changed to sugar in the dieters system. The theory is that long-acting foods (ie those with a low Gi score), will keep you feeling full for longer and help to reduce your intake of food without craving snacks all the time.
It's also beneficial for people with diabetes, as the low GI food types are beneficial in reducing 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
