Product Description:
The easiest diet going is now even easier--and tastier. Off to an explosive start, The G.I. Diet quickly landed on New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestseller lists, and required five quick printings (for a total of 190,000 copies) to keep pace with demand after national publicity discovered the 'Canadian miracle diet' (Woman's World). Now, continuing to build on the nutritional wisdom of the glycemic index, Rick Gallop follows up with the essential companion--a cookbook and strategy guide for living the G.I. Diet.
Organized around the simple, intuitive principle of green-, yellow-, and red-light foods--if you can follow a traffic light, you can follow this diet--Living the G.I. Diet gets right into the kitchen with 135 dishes that are as easy to prepare as they are unrecognizable as diet food. Grilled Pesto Salmon with Asparagus. Beef and Eggplant Chili. Garlic Shrimp Pasta. Thai Chicken Curry. Pork Tenderloin with Grainy Mustard and Chive Crust. Cinnamon French Toast. Florentine Frittata. And desserts: Baked Chocolate Mousse, Basmati Rice Pudding, Pecan Brownies--that's right, brownies.
In addition, the book spells out how to lose weight (Phase I) and maintain weight loss (Phase II); how to make G.I. eating a family affair; navigating holidays, restaurants, vacation eating; and exploring the psychological and emotional aspects of food and food cravings--everything you need to stay on this proven track.

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - This is not a diet it is a way to live a healthy life
I love this book. It clearly gives you what is bad to eat (red light) and good to eat (green light). I have shed about 10 lbs so far. This diet make me feel good. I am eating good natural foods and I don't feel hungry. If you want to be healthy and stop dieting this book has it all.
Rating:  - Low Glycemic Recipes
This book of recipes is a wonderful addition to "The G.I. Diet Express" and I highly recommend both books for a healthier lifestyle.
Rating: - Losing Weight Sensibly
This book is a continuation from his first one, which was also very informative. He includes many recipes, which are easy and good, and a menu for a 2 week period to get you going. I recommend this book for anyone trying to lose weight in a practical way.

I liked not only the information in the book, but the simple, easy-to-follow way it is presented. It gives specific information that is available in detail or at a glance. This is the best book about glycemic index that I've found!
