Glycemic Index Weight Loss

Several years ago a friend once complained to me, his weight is not proportional to his height. He always felt not in a state fit every time. Feel tired, trouble concentrating, pounding heart alarming, even pain in the knee must withstand loads due to excessive weight. I can only answer the cliche that is by telling him to go on a diet.

Early last year I met him again at a wedding in our city. I almost did not know him anymore, because a very drastic change in appearance. I casually invited him shake as he introduced himself. Then I asked him how your way of losing weight up to much. He invited me to take the food, before described his experiences. We then took the duck curry, white rice, and crackers. Unlike me who do not take vegetables, my friend took the vegetables in large numbers. If noted, the amount of vegetables about 1 / 2 plate, rice 1 / 4, and the remaining 1 duck thigh meat. After that we sat in a rather quiet in order not to interfere with other guests.

My weight was ever more than 20 kg. With a height of about 160 cm, my ideal weight should be around 54 kg. But because of my diet irregular and unhealthy, my weight had reached 80 kg. Various ways of weight loss I have ever tried. Starting from eating diet foods and beverages, until the heavy exercise. Unfortunately, these efforts only provide a temporary reduction effects only. After it increased again quickly.

For example, I've followed the weight management program for 3 months, by drinking milk (meal replacement) 3 times a day. It successfully lose weight to 68 kg, 78 kg of weight before. But I am through with suffering heavy, because it must resist the urge to eat. Having not followed the program, my weight increased rapidly. Several times I have to follow a program like this. Finally I decided to quit, because it requires a lot of capital to buy these diet products.

Then I tried another way by following the advice my friend to run on the treadmill about 5 miles a day for 3 months. Unfortunately I only managed to lose weight just as much as 5 kg only after 3 months have passed. It was disappointing.

Recently I read in the newspaper, running can not lose weight. Running even make metabolic body responds by releasing the desire to eat. So do not be surprised the harder you exercise the greater our desire for carbohydrate-containing meal, or drink the sweet. Thus more and more sugar is released into the body to replace the energy lost due to physical activity like running on the "treadmill". In the newspaper also mentioned an example of someone who ran for 2 hours every day for 6 months, but only lost about 3 kg body weight. Case was more severe than I had.

Finally I found a way to lose weight without feeling hungry and tired. This method is called with a diet of sugar or the term is a Low Glycemic Index diet. When is the best time to start this diet. I note you have to change the eating patterns of eating sweet or fatty foods into healthier foods. Of course this is not easy for most people, I asked with enthusiasm.

Yes very true. Many people frown when I explain the diet like this because their brains from the beginning has been to respond with denial, as you will not be able to do this diet, you can not drink your favorite coffee anymore, you can not eat chocolate cake.
