[QUOTE="trinityroyal, post: 361679, member: 3907"] Hey Sharon. I think I was the one who posted about the G. I. Diet books, although Star's advice on a low glycemic index diet is spot-on. I did indeed do the fridge purge. husband and I took about a car-load of things over to difficult child's Residential Treatment Center (RTC) for him (Since he's quite underweight, we figured that it was a good balance -- give him the things that help you gain weight, so that we could lose weight). And we were very strict about following the red / yellow / green for the longest while, until we each got accustomed to how our bodies tolerate the diets. We have each learned where we can and can't push the boundaries a bit without backsliding. However, until your body gets used to the new way of eating and you understand how your body reacts to changes in blood sugar, I recommend sticking to a pretty strict regimen. Another G.I. book that I found very useful was the G. I. Diet clinic. It's in workbook format, so you can track your progress week by week, keep notes and that sort of thing. If you don't want to buy a 3rd book, a website like SparkPeople gives you the tracking mechanisms, and you can follow the GI meal plans rather than the Spark ones. [/QUOTE]
