My High School Weight???

For as long as I can remember, I’ve weighed 185 pounds -- a few pounds over, a pound or so under. Until four weeks ago, when I started to eat according to the Glycemic Index, and in addition to daily yoga, I began fast walking, up and down steep hills.

Today I am at my high-school weight of 175.

Damn. I wasn’t even trying to lose weight. But two weeks after starting this regime, I was at 175 and feeling fit. I was not feeling unfit before, mind you, but it feels great to be at this weight.

I think the real secret to the weight-loss is the Glycemic Index. I’ve suggested this to some of my hypnotherapy clients on a weight program. One is reporting the same results I experienced. A couple more have still to report back.

The Glycemic Index is primarily for diabetics. I don’t have diabetes, but I am a little closer to that line than I want to be, so I investigated and decided this was an ideal diet for everyone. I’ve always avoided sugar like the poison it is, but the carbs are another thing all together. I’ve been learning to eat foods low on the glycemic index (GI) and avoid foods that have an immediate effect on blood sugar levels. The goal is to eat carbs that break down slowly, releasing glucose gradually into the bloodstream.

You need carbs. Most nutritional doctors say you should eat more carbs than proteins, fats and fibers, and that it’s time to forget about simple and complex carbohydrates and to think in terms of low GI foods and high GI foods.

Example: “The higher the glycemic index, the higher the blood sugar levels after consumption of the food. Rice Krispies (GI value of 82) and baked potatoes (GI value of 85) have very high GI values, meaning their effect on blood sugar levels is almost as high as that of equal amounts of pure glucose (yes, you read it correctly).”

Before, I would think nothing of eating a baked potato with my meal. Today, I order brown rice, or cottage cheese, or tomato slices. White bread is GI rated at 11, stoneground whole grain bread is 7. White rice is 36, brown rice is 16.

The knowledge you need is pretty simple. The quote above is from “The New Glucose Revolution: A Low GI Guide” -- a small paperback by Brand-Miller and Foster-Powell. I bought it at Mother’s Kitchen.
