Exerts from The GI Diet Under the Spotlight that I found interesting. Though this is not EXACTLY the diet that I'm on. I have to watch the Glycemic Load, not just the Index. Also.. I surfed on "charge glycémique"..translated as Glycémic Load that gave me useful information as well..

The GI Diet Under the Spotlight
By WLR Dietitian
Juliette Kellow BSc RD

How it works
The Glycaemic Index runs from 0 to 100 and usually uses glucose - which has a GI value of 100 - as the reference. The effect other foods have on blood sugar levels are then compared with this. In simple terms, the GI index tells us whether a food raises blood sugar levels dramatically, moderately or a little bit. Foods that have only a slow, small effect on blood sugar have a low GI value, while those causing a rapid and massive rise in blood sugar have a high GI value.

So what's the link with weight loss?
The theory behind diets based on the Glycaemic Index is that foods with a low GI value slowly release sugar into the blood, providing you with a steady supply of energy, leaving you feeling satisfied longer so that you're less likely to snack. In contrast, foods with a high GI value cause a rapid - but short-lived - rise in blood sugar. This leaves you lacking in energy and feeling hungry within a short time, with the result that you end up reaching for a snack. If this pattern is frequently repeated, you're likely to gain weight as a result of constantly overeating.

How do GI diets work?
Diets based on GI index simply encourage you to eat plenty of foods with a low GI value and avoid those with a high GI value. This helps to prevent swings in blood sugar, helping you feel fuller for longer. However, most GI diets also recommend cutting down on fat, especially saturates. This means many of the foods which have a low GI value but are high in fat - whole milk, crisps and chocolate, for example - are still limited.

What affects the GI value of a food?
There are several things. Firstly, the overall nutrient content of a food will affect its GI. For example, fat and protein affect the absorption of carbohydrate. This helps to explain why chocolate, which is high in fat, has a low GI value. It also explains why high-fat crisps have a lower GI value than low-fat jacket potatoes. Whole milk also has a low GI value because it's packed with protein and fat.

How you cook a food, the degree of processing and the ripeness and variety of a fruit, for example, also affect its GI. Even the structure of the carbohydrate itself influences the GI. For example, processed instant oatmeal has a higher GI than traditional rolled oats used to make porridge. This is because, as a result of the processing, the starch in instant oats is more easily exposed to digestive enzymes, causing it to break down and enter the bloodstream more rapidly.

Meanwhile, some foods have low GI values because they are packed with fibre, which acts as a physical barrier, slowing down the absorption of carbohydrate into the blood.

So what happens when I eat a meal?
GI index charts only identify the effect different foods have on bloods sugar levels when they are eaten on their own and, consequently, many nutritionists believe this is one of the main problems with GI diets. Basically, when you eat a mixture of foods together as in a meal, the GI value of that whole meal changes. As a guideline though, the more low GI foods you include in a meal, the lower the overall GI value of that meal will be.

7h00 PM Yoga Today
~ TOTAL BODY YOGA
60 mins "Remember the intention" Some I couldn't do, some I had to change a little.. but it's an "intermediate" level.. and I'll surely still be a beginner for a while. I usually figure 3 years to get out of the "beginner" stage in a sport.. and Energie Yoga that I've done, can hardly count for more than 1 session. But I'm in no hurry.

+ 5 °C but very grey skiies except for a few minutes of sun. There's still 2-3 feet of snow.  Get big blister behind left ankle. Probably because of the winter spiked soles that I attach to my boots around the ankle. It's happened before. I wanted to do the Pin de Sucre as well, but didn't want to take a chance worsening the blister. I want to be able to dance tomorrow and go to the gym on Monday.

Un siècle de tango
 de l’Ensemble Romulo Larrea
À Montréal et en tournée
14 artistes en musique, en danse et en chant

Un siècle de tango, c’est la production haute en émotions et en couleurs présentée à Broadway à guichets fermés et maintenant offerte chez nous.

La tournée nord-américaine Un siècle de Tango / Tango First Century visitera une quinzaine de villes au Québec durant la saison 2008–2009.

Un siècle de tango retrace l’histoire du tango, son évolution et sa destinée. Le périple commence à Paris, au temps des années folles. Il se poursuit en évoquant l’inoubliable Carlos Gardel, le maître du tango-chanté, puis traverse l’âge d’or du tango dans les années 40, alors que Buenos Aires vibre au rythme du tango dansé. Cette revue fait bien sûr la part belle au tango d’Astor Piazzolla, compositeur-interprète de renom qui a renouvelé le genre.

Un siècle de tango réunit 14 artistes sur scène, dont les sept musiciens de l’Ensemble formé du trio typique (piano, bandonéon, contrebasse) et d’un quatuor à cordes, tous dirigés par le maître du bandonéon et directeur artistique, Romulo Larrea. À cette formation, se joindront trois couples de danseurs de tango émérites sous la direction chorégraphique des danseurs-étoiles Cecilia Saïa (gagnante d’un Tony Award) et Ronen Khayat ainsi que Verónica Larc, chanteuse à la voix vibrante et racée.

Go HABS go!

6h15 PM Yoga Today ~ OPENING TO GRATITUDE
All day was difficult, and I was too hungry when I got home.. ate clean but badly.. so my stomach was still off the first 10 minutes of the yoga. But it all cleared away and I was feeling great by the end of the class.

READING

Got the May 2008 issue of   BACKPACKER MAGAZINE.

Read the "SUMMER FITNESS SPECIAL" —" Hike Stronger, Live Longer." Looking at the schedule and exercises.. I'm ahead of the game and doing the right stuff. Glad to read that Yoga is mentionned in the cross training suggestions. The Cardio-Militaire group fitness covers most of the exercises.. in one variation or other.. but I'll do some specific strenght / agility exercises in May and June.  Hanging Hip Flexors, Radial lunges, One-legged Calf Raises, Bench Hops, Scissor Jacks.

Will be interessting to read :  "SUMMER FITNESS SPECIAL" —" Eat Better " Snack for All-Day Energy, Balance your Backcountry Diet, 10 Best Backing Foods, The Perfect Menu

BED AT 10h30 PM 

FRIDAY, April 18th 2008
No emergencies at work, so I can do alot of things I've been wanting to do for a long time, feels great!

DAY OFF Except for some light stretching.

BED AT 17h15 PM  Thought I'd just take a nap, but I guess I needed more!

Believe in your passion!
