It was back in 1971 that I started my first diet classes, helping people to lose
their unwanted weight and become healthier. In 1986, quite by accident, I
learned that eating a low-fat diet made me much leaner. After running trials to
test the effectiveness of my diet, I wrote my Hip and Thigh Diet, which went on
to sell over 2 million copies and was a No 1 bestseller in five countries.
I then went on to write another 28 books on diet and fitness, present 28 fitness
videos/DVDs and, with the help of my husband, launched Rosemary Conley
Diet and Fitness Clubs in 1993 and Rosemary Conley Diet & Fitness magazine in
1996.
More recently I have written my bestselling Gi Jeans
Diet and the follow-up book, Ultimate Gi Jeans Diet.
Gi stands for glycaemic index, and the whole principle
of the Gi way of eating is to eat foods that are slowly
digested and absorbed, which helps stabilise our
blood sugar levels and keeps us feeling fuller for
longer. Gi has brought a new perspective to dieting,
but the principles of weight loss remain unchanged.
My goal was to create an eating plan that would be
ultra-healthy and Gi-based, one that would work
quickly and effectively in reducing weight and
inches. It is the success of this that has led me to
launch this enerGi range of electrical equipment.
More recipe ideas can be found in Rosemary Conley Diet &
Fitness magazine and in my diet and cookery books. You can find details of
these and how to order them by visiting the Rosemary Conley website

For more information on how to lose weight and eat healthily please read the
following pages. Remember, we are what we eat. If we eat good, healthy food,
cooked without fat, we will not only become leaner but we will feel so much
better with more energy, clearer skin and a much healthier body. Add some
moderate but regular exercise and you’ll feel like a brand new person. Enjoy it!
