Shortly after my book arrived I found out I am diabetic. This book makes my food choices so easy.
It is just like a stop light. RED (bad for me), YELLOW (use rarely),GREEN (what I can have with no problems).
Each page that has food on it is set up this way.
Also explains in understandable terms what the glycemic index is and how it works.
Good food plan for anyone no matter what issues they have with a diet or just plain eating right.
DO I like it that most all the foods I like the most are in the RED column? No, of course not. But I just ignore that column.
I just had my 4th baby in May and was hoping this would be easy to implement for me to do proper food combing while breastfeeding and also losing weight. I have the 3 hour diet and have done the zone in the past after my first baby so food combing is not something new to me and I know it works. The reason I got this book was the red light green light system. I thought it would be nice to just glance and be able to eat. But I don't feel that in comparison to the other books that this book gives enough guidance at all as to what you can eat. And I find myself referring to the 3 hour diet for more guidance than this book provides. I also found it disturbing how much the author suggests using sugar substitutes in foods. I have no desire to eat those chemicals, or put them in my body in lieu of natural sugar. A great natural alternative to chemicals is Agave Nectar. And it's low GI. I wonder why the author doesn't mention using that instead of harmful chemicals?
Can you use this to lose weight, yes you surely can. But it's much more restrictive than the 3 hour diet, so I'd highly recommend going with that book either instead of or along with this one if you are looking to eat properly.

This book is helpful to give you an idea of what to eat for the low GI diet. It has some sample recipes but needs sample menus too. There are food lists with green, yellow or red lights which are easy to follow. However, it is not very extensive and I am looking for more informative lists with actual values now. Still, it's a good starting point.

I purchased the book after checking it out from a local library. I enjoyed the book so well that I felt that I wanted to keep it for reference all the time...and I was going to purchase it from a book store when someone suggested Amazon.com. Thank goodness. I got it for a fraction of the cost and it was delivered within a few days...Thank you Amazon.com..Loretta.

This book is to the point and easy to read. It does not cloud it's intentions with terminology that only doctors and nutrition experts will understand. It is weight loss made easy and simple.
