Maybe you've been eating high-glycemic foods that cause you to gain weight and make it harder to lose weight. The glycemic index was originally developed to assist persons with diabetes in managing blood sugar levels. But now we know that the glycemic index is great for weight loss. And it's also great for insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome.

But this book explains the glycemic index in easy-to-understand language. You'll understand  the glycemic index and most importantly, what to eat. You won't be on a starvation or deprivation diet. In fact, you can actually eat your favorite foods but you'll be eating them in balance with highly nutritious foods.

The book gives you a comprehensive weight loss program -- you'll learn how to work with your mental attitude and use affirmations and visualizations plus you'll learn how to exercise to promote weight loss. Since high stress levels are a big factor in weight loss, you'll learn how to soothe stress. Plus, you'll learn how to eat when traveling, dining out, and during family holidays and events.

This book replaces Lucy's bestseller, The Complete Idiot's Guide to Weight Loss, now sold out.
