As a matter of fact, there is not a fixed glycemic index meal plan when you lose weight with the glycemic index. But there are some things to think about and strive for when you plan your meals for the day.

You sometimes hear that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and it is! What you eat for breakfast has an impact on the glycemic index of the other meals during the day. The suggestions below can be substituted with other foods, but check the GI value!

Grapefruit, half or whole or An apple (take care when choosing fruit, some have a much too high GI value) A bowl of oatmeal porridge and milk

Since you will eat a breakfast with a really low GI value, the risk for cravings between meals during the day is minimal. But if you really feel you need a snack, choose fruit only if you pick one with a really low GI value. Some fruits have a much to high GI value to be a good alternative for a snack between meals.

A better snack is a handful of nuts, packed with essential fatty acids, proteins and vitamin E. But stick with the handful, no need to overeat.

If you want to go to lunch with your fellow workers at the restaurant, by all means do that, but avoid potatoes, rice and pasta too much cooked. However, if the restaurant is a fast food place, you should probably avoid it. Bringing you own lunch is by far the best alternative, because that way you will really get to choose what to eat.

Choose whatever foods you like from the GI chart, as long as they have a low glycemic index and will give you all proteins, vitamins and fat you need.

There is actually food that do not have any GI value at all because they contain no carbohydrates, e. g. fish, eggs and meat, those are instead rich in proteins.
