Checking the Glycemic Index of Food is healthier than a low Carbohydrate diet

Martha,

day off - nope - No excuses!! if u exercise 7 days instead of 6
you burn 17% more calories. I do have hard and easy days, tho.
Also, if you do 7 days you never have to decide "do I exercise today?"
Tough love, baby. Quitters never win, and winners never quit.

Congrats on the 85 pounds! The real challenge, however, will be
keeping it off. White bread and potatoes may cause your blood sugar to
spike - when it crashes it causes undue hunger.

Not for everybody. I don't eat much white bread because I like whole wheat
better. But I haven't taken potatoes out of my diet. Like all foods, I've
cut back on portion size.

You've resisted this
hunger so far - but your body is going to want to go back to your
equilibrium weight. White bread and potatoes may increase that
equilibrium weight. You're not out of the woods until you've kept the
weight off for five years. Why not make that easier to do? Hope you
are also exercising one hour a day.

I hope you take at least one day off a week from exercising. It's good for
your body to have a rest day.

Martha,

Then you're setting yourself up for injury. It's a bad idea to workout 7
days a week. Elite atheletes take days off. Every good runner knows it's
suicide to run 7 days a week.

Do you enjoy living your life without thinking? : ) I mean,
seriously....life is about choices and thought.

Tough love, baby. Quitters never win, and winners never quit.

Yeah, as you get older, the human body has more chances for injuries. By
never giving it a rest, you are a prime injury target. Good luck. Smart
folks know when it's time to rest and time to work. Winners know when they
need to rest, quitters get injured.
