Tesco GI Diet

Read my personal review of this dieting book which will really change your life.

I have lost weight with this great book Paul McKenna's book I can make you slim.
New revised edition!

I haven't been hungry since I started this diet and there is no weighing, measuring or special foods to eat.

Very easy to follow - you can eat ALL your favourite foods!

I personally recommend you buy this book.
It has changed the way I look at food and dieting! You will find it easier than ever before to diet - and it won't seem like dieting as you're allowed all the foods you like!

The Apple Diet

Apples are delicious Well I've been reading about a few versions of the apple diet.

In its one form its a detox diet where you only eat apples (Nice ripe soft apples) for 3 days, and on the 3rd day you have some olive oil. They recommend you have a colonic too, but I suspect a diet of just apples will eliminate the need for that.

Doing the detox diet would be best in Autumn when apples are in season - ie: at the end of summer and in Autumn. You can get apples all year round but foreign apples cost more.
You need to eat at least 6 a day and drink plenty of water.

The 3 apples a day diet
Eat a low fat diet and eat three apples a day.
Pros: This will have you eating more fruit.
Cons: Its still a lot of apples!

Apples contain: fiber, vitamin A and E.
They contain phytochemicals, including quercetin, catechin, phloridzin and chlorogenic acid, all of which are strong antioxidants. The composition of apples varies from apple to apple.

By eating raw apples you get all the benefits of fruit. You can't substitute juice or apple puree though.

Another apple related diet is the apple cider vinegar diet - where you're encourages to take teaspoons of this with meals.
