Lost Another Pound This Week, Low Glycemic Index I Like.

My bedtime reading this week has been The GI Diet Breakthrough, there is so much good info in that book, it's not just a diet book. I'm determined to understand this low gi diet plan.

All these years I've been guilty of using the "I need a sugar hit" to get me through the afternoon. I've done this so often and reading GI Diet Breakthrough, I now realise just how 'off beam' I've been.

Things like chocolate bars, good old Coke and coffee with sugar have been what I've reached for and now I can see how wrong that was. These are all simple sugars and the worst kind for causing a spike in my blood sugar levels, heaps of energy and very soon after, lethargic.

Since I've been doing things the GI way, I haven't felt the need for that 'sugar hit' and I've lost another pound this week which is just great and I haven't even thought about being on a diet, thanks to the GI Diet Breakthrough.

Slow and steady is how I want to lose my weight that's how it is happening and I don't feel like I'm dieting. Then I want to keep it off with sensible eating and by the time my weight is where I want it, I should be eating a low GI diet as a natural thing, not having to think if this is a low gi food or go to the GI Diet Breakthough to find out. I will know that book by heart by then.

I've been repeating recipes for the last couple of weeks but this week I'm off to find some more new ones. What I did find last week, is a great program for my recipes, it not only stores recipes and cookbooks but with a few clicks, organises the shopping list and menu planning. It's called ShopNCook Menu and you can get a trial download, which is a good thing as you can figure out if it is what you want or not during the trial. Although this is not an expensive program and I've found it so good that I think I will buy it when the trial is up. This is the download link ShopNCook Menu and the trial is 45 days.

Okay that's it for now, I'm going to plan my menu for next week with ShopNCook Menu and print out my shopping list. this is such a time saver when I'm working such odd hours.

Catch you again soon.
