The Easy GL Diet Handbook: Lose Weight with the Revolutionary Glycemic Load Program Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Please be aware of the word "handbook". This "book" was small--about 5x7 size. In searching for a reference to assist me in recording in my food diary, I thought this would do so. The foods are listed in five columns--the "food", the "GI value", the "amount of food in grams containing 50 grams of carbohydrates", then "carbohydrate per 100 grams of food" and then the "GL" column--not "one apple" or "1/3 c of rice", etc. So it was not much help to me. Most text's that I have viewed so far have GI/GL information for a food serving but it is very limited but this booklet's listed servings were indescript and not adaptable to everyday life. The booklet itself was in great condition and it was promptly delivered.

The Holford Low GL Diet: Lose Fat Fast Using the Revolutionary Fatburner System Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have tried, unsuccessfully, to lose weight for a decade. And when I say I had tried everything, I do mean everything. I eventually simply accepted that I would be a "fat chick" for the rest of my life. That is, until I had a medical and was told I was now officially a Type 2 diabetic. I was horrified! My sister, who had always been thin, had managed to lose her post-pregnancy pot-belly with this book, plus there was the incentive that it claimed to help stabilize blood sugar. With nothing to lose, except hopefully a few pounds, I went ahead and bought the book. Smartest money I ever spent.
The recipes were actually dead easy and absolutely delicious and within a short period of time, I understood the philosophy of what should and shouldn't be on my plate, even when eating out. Within 3 months I had lost 35 pounds! As if that wasn't enough to impress my doctor, blood tests also showed that my blood sugar was back in the normal range!
This is so much more than a 'diet'. It's a lifestyle change, and I found it incredibly easy. Dinner guests have been known to apologize for coming over for dinner and forcing me to break my diet. I smile and tell them that I'm not breaking my diet - everything they've just eaten is part of the Holford plan. None of them can believe I can eat like this and still lose weight!
If you've ever struggled to shed some weight, do yourself a favor. This is the only thing that has ever worked for me and it was easy! I'm still losing weight, I'm healthier and fitter and really feel as though I've been given a new lease on life!

Transitions Lifestyle System Easy-to-Use Glycemic Index Food Guide (Transitions Lifestyle Systems) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)While this book did have many more listings than anything else I've found, it is very difficult to find what you are looking for. One simple alphabetical listing would have been much more helpful than the catagories and sub-catagories it has. Also note that this is a British publication, so many names are not familiar to Americans (an aubergine is an eggplant; a pulse is a pea, bean or lentil...)

The book first answers commonly asked questions, ensuring that you understand the GI and know how to use it. It then provides the glycemic index and glycemic load of hundreds of foods and beverages, including raw foods, cooked foods, and many combination and prepared foods. Whether you are interested in controlling your glucose levels to manage your diabetes, lose weight, increase your heart health, or simply enhance your well-being, the Glycemic Index Food Guide is the best place to start.

500 Low Glycemic Index Recipes: Fight Diabetes and Heart Disease, Lose Weight and Have Optimum Energy with Recipes That Let You Eat the Foods You Enjoy Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have blood sugar problems and, I suspect, pre-diatbes. I had the hardest time finding cookbooks that had a big section on ideas for just vegetables! I wanted to add more interesting veggie side dishes into my meal plans but even the vegetarian books I looked at just didn't have what I wanted. This book does - and a whole lot more. Lots of stews and soups and skillet meals. Most of them can be served either plain (such as a soup or stew) or over rice or noodles. The nice thing is that most of the recipes don't incorporate many carbs, therefore making them low-glycemic, which is great for anyone who struggles with diabetes, pre-diabetes, hypoglycemia (which is my issue) or any other problems with erratic or unstable blood glucose levels. I have tried MANY of the recipes and found them all to be "keepers". I do love that I can make some kind of meal that can be served over rice and give it to my family that way and serve it to myself without rice. You won't be disappointed in this book. The only thing I can say in a negative way is that the author is very much into a "no sodium" way of thinking so everything is listed as "salt-free" and he never adds salt to any recipe. I add salt to all of them and find the flavor enhanced even more. Check out this book! I use mine several times a week and will continue to for years to come.

The Complete Idiot's Guide to Glycemic Index Weight Loss Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My Boss bought me this book when I was diagnosed with Adult II Diabetes. This book is more precious to me than a raise! I love the way the author composed the book...humor, honesty, great recipes and tips. Highly recommended for any person who wants to live a healthy life style. I have lost 15 lbs and my husband has lost 20. We both want to lose 30 lbs each. If you follow the suggestions in the book you will lose the weight. No matter if it is 30, 50 or 100 lbs...the glycemic works. The book encouraged me to find a good cookbook for glycemic recipes and I found a great one here at Amazon.com.
You will feel better, sleep better and have more energy. The recommendation for "Emergen-C" found in the book is great. I found a box at Rite Aide and this is a great vitamin drink. It can also be found online. Talk about a pure energy boost! Wow...great stuff and pure vitamins.
LOVE this book. Buy it. You will not be sorry. My friends and coworkers are now reading the book and following the very simple suggestions. It is so easy! Not a drastic restrictive diet at all. Very simple. Highly recommend.
