Syndrome X, Low GI Diets & Weight Loss
PING!!! I'm back.. Hope you've missed me! I have been walking most nights now for 30 mins, plus I've replaced the Haribo with peanut M&M's and the good news is I've just reached 16st 1lb. A standing ovation if you please....
Why the replacement I hear you ask? Well, I'm trying to see if I have Syndrome X or at least to see if my body responds to the treatment of it which is to follow a Low GI diet. No tablets, no weekly classes, no restriction of food, just swapping whit carbs for brown ones and doing a bit more. So watch this space folks...
I was researching a site the other day and this caught my eye " The mistake many people who are insulin resistant often make (and are encouraged to make) is to go on a a strict calorie control diet with meal replacements in order to try to lose excess body fat. The problem with these sorts of diets is that they are unbalanced and often contain MORE sugar than the meals they replaced! Low fat foods often make up for taste by increasing the sugar content, making them just as, if not more, fattening. Avoid these diets at all costs!"
