This latest addition to the bestselling G.I. Diet series offers
individualized weight-loss strategies for every member of the family.
When Rick Gallop published The G.I. Diet in 2002, its easy, healthy
and effective approach ensured its phenomenal success in Canada and
around the world. Not surprisingly, Rick has received a flood of emails
from people thrilled with their new trim selves. Along with their
gratitude and praise have been questions: "How can I avoid cooking two
different meals for myself and my family?" "Is it okay for my teen to go
on the G.I. Diet?" "Can I follow this plan while breastfeeding?" "My
82-year-old mother needs to lose weight -- does the BMI table apply to
her?"
Everyone cares about their family's health. But no two people have the
same body chemistry, nutritional needs and eating habits. So how do you
prepare healthy meals for your family without becoming a short-order
cook? How do you get your spouse to follow the G.I. Diet? How do you
help your overweight child? What if you're pregnant? For The Family
G.I. Diet, Rick has teamed up with his wife, Dr. Ruth Gallop, to
address all of these questions and more. Whether your family members
have a weight problem or not, this book's sound nutritional advice,
practical tips and fifty new green-light recipes will go a long way to
improving their health and well-being.
Here's what readers had to say about The G.I. Diet
"I started the G.I. Diet at the beginning of March 2004. . .It is now
four months later and I'm 25 pounds lighter. I feel stronger, have more
energy and am fitting into clothes that haven't fit in ages!"
--Alicia
"After many different attempts at losing weight, I've finally found
success with the G.I. Diet!. . .The pounds and inches melt away."
--Jan

and 6 inches off my waistline. . .I've made up my mind to eat like this
for the rest of my life."
--Ray
"My husband is down 40 pounds and I'm down 20 pounds! The G.I. Diet
rocks!! We're never hungry, we can't believe the gradual and constant
weight loss, and we can't believe that we can eat out, travel, celebrate
special events and still, albeit sometimes partially, stick to the
regime and keep the weight off."
--Joann
"As a teenager I know that dieting is a big thing for a lot of us. So
many of my friends are always trying different diets and usually end up
going hungry. . .Considering [the G.I. Diet] was the first diet I'd
really ever done, I'm surprised that it actually worked. . .I've managed
to lose 24 pounds in a healthy, natural way -- even my doctor is
pleased."
--Erika
"I lost 85 pounds in 22 weeks. . .There is certainly no more rewarding
personal journey than transforming your body into what you always wanted
it to be. I can't begin to express how valuable the G.I. Diet has been
to making this happen."
--Derek
"The G.I. Diet is the easiest weight loss program I have ever been on --
and I've been on plenty. I want to eat like this for the rest of my
life.
--Marylou
