My name is lucy jules and I went to one of your semenars at the kamloops Indiand band, this is where I first heard about your low glycemic meals in minutes. I did receive your cook book but I leant it out to ours and never got it back.

I had to lose weight so that i could donate my kidney to another person who needs it, away when I started on the low glycemic meals in minutes i had lost 17lbs in the frist 2 weeks (my weight was 215lbs when I started) I am now at 185 1/2 lbs now. With learning how prepared my food has really helped.

The reason why I want to win this cook book is because I need to go back and remind myself of how to get back on track when I lose sight of what i am doing for losing wieght.
I heard about the contest on facebook and found the website

I started my low glycemic eating plan last week with the USANA reset and it worked wonders I started at 263lbs and I lost 9 pounds. I found your site when I went looking for low glycemic recipes. I am a single mom with limited income and a 13 year old daughter who has been sick for 2 years with an undiagnosed issue that has her in a wheelchair since last September. After the Toronto Sick Kids Hospital said they could not find the root problem , I knew that I had to start looking at alternate options to get her healthy and find her diagnosis. I found Shrink A Thon and that I could setup a charity that would allow my friends and family to sponsor my weightloss at 1 dollar a pound that I can then put into a fund to get her Alternate medicine treatments that are far too expensive for me. I need as many resources as possible to help me make this a livable tasty experience for my daughter who has been through so much already and she is not very happy with the meals I have made so far! I need inspiration for the meals, I need this cookbook!!

I am planning on losing at least 60lbs and I have a long way to go...this would truly make a difference in my journey!

Thanks

I have the older version of your cookbook that I ordered a few years ago and I'd love a new one. It's by far, my favorite low-GI cookbook!!! I can't even remember how I first came across the book and website. All that matters is that I love it, right?! If I win, you can DM me on Twitter - SkinnyMamaNish. Thanks!

I am just learning that I need to eat this way, that this way of life will help me feel better, look better and lose weight. It would be a tool for me in my home to help me, I am single and so I need to learn how to cook good healthy foods that will assist with my health. My mom died at a very early age of 51 years old.... I am now at the age of 37 her size and I hate myself and how I look... I want something that will help, but working part time and taking care of a disabled sister financially I am in bind, so this is awesome to have a chance at winning a life saving cookbook. I am also using Dr. Strands Healthy for LIfe book to teach me about low GI/GL... THank you

I was actually just doing a good search on low glycemic cookbooks and this website came up in the search. Thanks again

I would like to win this cookbook as my husband was diagnosed with cancer last August and has been controlling it through a naturopath and a low glycemic diet that includes only fish, organic vegetables, organic chicken or turkey. We bought a low glycemic book from the naturopath but it only had 20 recipes in it. I am running out of ideas and time (own Uniquely Green Home Decor store) and would like tasty ideas that could support him in his journey to avoid radical surgery by eating low glycemic and organic.

I have been on a Low Glycemic/More Activity Life Style as I like to call it (not diet) since June 2009 and have lost 82 pounds, so far. Of course my family will eat anything I make and does not complain too much. The only complaint is that they are a little bored of the same things over and over again. My problem is, I work a lot of late hours, so I seem to go back to the same "go to meals" that I know will not take too long, will meet my requirements and that they will like.

Since the New Year my husband and daughter have also decided that they would also like to start eating healthier all the time, cutting out all the sugar and higher glycemic foods. So, today while I was off, I was hoping to find some quick, healthy, low glycemic meals that could help me, when I found your website on my search. Your book sounds like exactly what we are looking for.

My other goal is not only to encourage them to eat healthier, but to also feel comfortable helping make some of the meals on the evenings I don't get home on time. This way we are not eating too late, which is also better for us.

Your book is exactly what we need!!!!!

I'd like to learn more about low GI eating plans. This book would be a good tool to help me learn.

I heard about the cookbook/site on twitter.

I would love to win this cookbook because I can't seem to keep the one I bought long enough to cook a meal out of it. I work with many people on low glycemic eating and lend it out all of the time to those that I coach. Recently, I let someone borrow it and I have no idea to whom. It is definitely now a lost copy. Therefore, I want my very own copy that can live on my kitchen counter that I can use with my own family. I am a huge proponent of low glycemic eating and have heard such rave reviews of the cookbook.

I heard about the website through Ray Strand's website, Carmen Marshall with Live Well International and saw the contest on Twitter.

I noticed this book in my local library and brought it home to preview. I thought, "here is a book that I would actually use often. The recipes are appealing, quick and easy to prepare and the 'quick prep' idea is the perfect answer to eating properly and not being tempted to grab something less healthy when hungry". I like that the book is coil bound: it's meant to be used, not just read!

I would love to win this book, especially to improve my husband's health. He tends to eat the wrong foods when he comes home from work tired and hungry, and by using the 'quick prep' method, there would always be something better for him to 'grab' from the frig and feel satisfied. The book's format makes it easy to keep handy for reference and frequent use.
