The original Gi Diet has become an international bestseller with its sound advice on how to eat healthily in order to lose weight. Now completely updated, Rick Gallop offers further advice built on the responses he has had from readers all over the world, and also offers 40 brand new recipes. The Gi Diet has calculated glycemic ratings of hundreds of foods and lists them in three simple categories: foods to avoid, foods to eat occasionally and foods that you can eat as much of as you want. With recipes, snack ideas, tips on dining out and strategies to maintain your new weight, you'll never need to pick up another diet book.
And the benefits are more than just weight loss! Changing your eating habits can also help prevent life-threatenting illnesses, like heart disease and diabetes.
"Losing weight is relatively easy with many "fad" Diets:; maintaining the loss with these diets is difficult and largely impossible to sustain. Rick Gallop has found the key to permanent weight loss"
