GI Diet

  • Is anybody incorporating this diet into their WW plan?

    If so what are you doing? I have been reading a bit about it and it sounds interesting and seems to have some merit.


    Thanks for any input you can give me

  • What is it...never heard of it?!?!?
  • It is the Glycemic Index diet. Based on eating foods that are lower in starchs, sugars etc. I guess it works on the principal that lower glycemic foods don't cause the peaks and valleys like sugars do etc.

    I have been reading some information on it and it seems like it could be relatively close to core.
    Was designed by a Dr. that used to be the head of the Heart and Stroke Foundation in Canada.
    I am going to do some more research on it as it seems quite interesting and quite well received by the medical community as being a "good" program.
    I am trying to re-evaluate what I have been eating and see if my choices are what is causing my plateau for the past few months.

  • I don't follow it 100% but I do try to eat a lot of the lower glycemic foods including whole grains, etc.
