Product Description
This is not just another diet book. This is a way of life. Forget the high-protein and the faddy single-food diets. Here is a simple eating plan that will become a way of life, helping dieters to lose weight and feel healthier at the same time. The GL (Glycaemic Load) Diet is the next step on from the GI Diet. Unlike the GI Diet, however, it is not complicated and full of tables and calculations. It also takes into consideration portion size, helping to establish how much you can really eat of a particular food without gaining weight. Written by acclaimed nutritionist and dietician Nigel Denby, this revolutionary book is ideal for all those who want to stop yo-yo dieting and lose weight permanently while still enjoying their food.
From the Inside Flap
At last, an easy weight-loss plan for life, not just weeks!
Are you stuck in a diet trap? Have you tried every fad and weight-loss plan there is? Then this is the book for you.
You’ve heard of the GI diet; now go one stage further with the GL – glycaemic load – diet. This revolutionary way of eating does away with the restrictiveness of the GI plan and instead, by taking into account the carb content and portion size of your food, tells you exactly how much of each kind of food you can eat! You won’t have to cut out your carbs completely – just keep the right kind!
By following this eating plan, you will soon see the weight start to drop off and will realise that you don’t need to go hungry. There are no complicated calculations to do, as we’ve done them all for you, and there is no dictatorial regime to adhere to, so you can fit this diet around your lifestyle, rather than building your life around your diet. To make life even simpler, there is a list of ‘yes’ foods so you know exactly which ones to choose day to day, plus there’s a host of delicious, easy-to-make recipes so that your diet plan will be anything but dull.
Written by acclaimed dietician and nutritionist Nigel Denby, this book will leave you wondering why you ever worried about weight-loss. So throw your other diet books away and start being passionate about your food!
