Well that's another 2lbs off, yay. Slightly frustrating that my losses have slowed down to *regular diet* rates but I like the simplicity so I won't be switching.

Next weeks mini goal is to hit the 90lbs off. Never did I imagine I'd come this far

Fantastic Cookeh, a nice boost for you after a tough week for you. I found my losses slowing after 26 weeks and this influenced my decision to switch to GL. So don't worry if they slow a little. It just means you are nearly there! Hang on in there, you are doing fab.

 

Well done Cookeh - you're doing great

 

Well done sweetheart, you're doing brilliantly! You are nearly there so I guess that your losses are going to slow up a bit but don't give in!

 

Wow well done, almost there now!
May I ask what's "GL"? I've heard if GI but not GL x

 

Well done Cookeh especially with the other things you have going on at the moment xx

Well done Cookeh, I am so proud of you! You're an inspiration xxx

 

WOW, well done you should be very proud of yourself

Hi cookeh
Well done, to stay so focused, especially having switched diets, the temptation to cave in most be high, keep up the good work,
i'm off to boogle 90lbs on the weight convertor link now,
Sam

 

GL is a more updated version of Gi as it takes into account the likely portion of the foods. For example, watermelon has a very high Gi rating but you are not likely to eat a whole watermelon. A slice if watermelon does not have high GL rating.

 

Aww thanks everyone I must admit it's been a struggle this past week, been under so much stress but the rewards are so worth it x

 

Well Done hun! You are doing so well and are so nearly there. You really are an inspiration x

 

your a star girlie, i'm so happy for your sucess

 

Molly's explanation is spot on. GL stands for Glycaemic Load and GL for Glycaemic Index. When selecting foods based on their GL rating you can sometimes include food that would have to be excluded purely on their GI rating and this is calculated based on the amount of the food you would eat as a typical portion.

 

Thanx ladies x
