The Glycaemic Index Diet
The gi index diet system is based around the glycaemic index, a chart showing food types and a score representing the ease with which the carbs of the food type gets transformed to sugar in your system. The claim is that slow release foods (ie with a low Gi number), keep you satiated for longer and help to take in less food without craving snacks all the time.
It is also very efficient for sufferers from diabetes, as the low GI food types are useful in reducing increases in blood sugar levels.

"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
