Losing weight

The Glycaemic Index Diet
The glycaemic index diet is reliant on the gi (or glycaemic index), a list of foods and a score illustrating the ease with which the carbohydrates of the food type gets transformed to sugar in your bloodstream. The claim is that slow acting types of food (ie those food types with a low Glycaemic index score), keep you feeling full longer and help you to take in fewer food without starving yourself.
It's also extremely good for diabetics, as the low GI types of food are useful in controlling increases in blood glucose levels.

Ingredients And Procedures

1 pound Jerky -- beef or buffalo

1 cup Whole dried hominy -- soaked overnight in

-- ample water 1 large Yellow onion -- peeled/chopped

1 pound Potatoes* -- unpeeled/diced

Salt and pepper to taste

*Native Americans would have used prairie potatoes -- arrowhead (Sagittaria latifolia).

Break the jerky up into 1-inch pieces and place in a heavy, lidded kettle. Drain the hominy and add to the jerky, along with the onion. Cover with water and bring to a boil. Simmer, covered, until the hominy is tender, about 2 hours. You will have to watch this closely, as more water will have to be added as you go along. Add the potatoes and cook for an additional 20 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
