Nutritional Diet Programs

tg49ers Posts: 4 Joined: 2007/05/19	2007/05/20, 12:24 PM I was looking to see if I can get some advice from anyone who have tried various nutritional programs. I am sure most weightloss/nutritional programs work. But I guess it is finding the right one. My girlfriend had quite of her coworkers recommend a Glycemic Index (GI) program. Can anyone give me any insight on this program? I have been searching the internet trying to find some generic programs and various recommended recipes, etc. But I am not having much luck. So if anyone has any info, please let me know!

Can you tell us what you are wanting to do? Loose weight? Gain muscle? -------------- My Catahoula did it. I saw a book titled "Sex for Dummies" and wondered why anyone would teach dumb people how to reproduce?

Even if you do gain a little weight by adding muscle, muscle takes up less space than fat and you can look slimmer by adding muscle. If my dang picture would update you could see what I was talking about. I started at 176lbs, then (before finding this site) dropped to 161lbs by eating better and doing aerobics with the wife. Then I decided to add muscle. I am back up to 174lbs. But, here's the good part. I still get asked how much weight I've lost after being at 161lbs. So, weight isn't quiet as important as fat to muscle percentages!!!
