About
Rick Gallop's groundbreaking G.I. Diet has been revised and updated once more to provide the best new basics for people looking to lose weight permanently, and to show you how to eat right for your personality type.
The G.I. Diet has helped hundreds of thousands of people around the world to lose weight and keep it off. Now Canada's diet guru Rick Gallop, along with his wife Dr. Ruth Gallop, have updated the book once again, including a guide to how your personality type affects your eating behaviours. Whether you are controlling, impulsive, indecisive or feel helpless, you will be able to identify your traits and modify your eating habits.
Over the years, the G.I. diet has proven that:
• You won't feel hungry or deprived
• You will never have to count calories, carbs or points again
• It's healthy and will reduce your risk of heart disease and diabetes Introduction
Since the original G.I. Diet was published ten years ago, over two million copies have been sold in twenty-three countries and seventeen languages, making it the most successful diet and health book in Canadian publishing history.
Perhaps our biggest surprise was both the quantity and quality of feedback from our readers-some 70,000 e-mails! While most of the e-mails talked about how successful the G.I. Diet has been for them, it has become increasingly clear that long-term success depends a great deal on people's ability or willingness to change eating behaviours and lifestyle. The most common refrain was "Please don't call this a diet; it's a lifestyle change."
What also has become apparent is the importance of how personality traits can influence people's approach to food and their long-term success in making a permanent change to a healthy eating lifestyle.
A simple example: Think about how you approach a buffet: do you plunge in and overload your plate without a second thought? Or do you think, "I'll make up for it tomorrow?" Perhaps you think it doesn't matter: "No matter what I do, I'll fail," or you analyze the buffet table then carefully select minute, carefully calculated samples, worrying that you have the precise correct amount? Each of these approaches to that buffet suggests specific personality traits.
Whether you are impulsive, wishful, helpless or controlling, there is little you can do to change your personality. However, this book will help you identify your specific personality traits, examine how they contribute to eating behaviours, and outline how you can use this knowledge to your advantage and modify the potentially negative influences of these characteristics.
The original G.I. Diet promised that you wouldn't go hungry or feel deprived; it is a plan that is simple, not time consuming, and promotes wellness and boosting energy levels. The new, revised G.I. Diet couples all these benefits with a personality driven guide to changing food behaviours to help make permanent weight loss even easier.
