Just a note: Low GI diet is always beneficial, however, low GI meals might not be necesarily low calorie ones. GI values and the concept of low GI diet are somehow difficult to grasp and rather confusing as most of the time various food in our meal has been mixed together. Low GI, sometimes, mix with high calories food, does not really benefit to the dieter.

Do not also skip meal as it will slow down our metabolic rate which cause reverse effect on the weight control.
