Insulin level is controlled and manipulated by the glycemic load of foods. In your mini skirt diet plan you want to consume lower glycemic foods to produce a lower glycemic load which keeps your insulin levels lower. By doing this you allow your body to burn more calories rather than storing them as fat.

First let discuss what low glycemic is before we decide if it will help you with your weight loss and mini skirt goals. Low glycemic foods are foods that when consumed do not dramatically elevate your blood sugar levels. Eating foods that are high glycemic will dramatically increase your blood sugar levels. Your body starts to promote the fat storage of these sugars when you eat high glycemic foods because your insulin level increases.

When women want to know or ask what foods to eat so they can be skinny and look amazing in that mini skirt they are essentially looking for foods that aren't going to promote the storage of fat. To become low glycemic a food needs to have a mixture of nutrients, be lower in overall sugars and contain a fair amount of fiber with each serving.

For example a piece of white bread is a high glycemic food because it consists of processed and refined flour. A piece of whole-grain bread would be a lower glycemic food because it contains a good amount of fiber and other nutrients that would slow down the absorption of your food.

You should choose foods that are either a good source of fiber or contain some protein and fat so that it is a lower glycemic food choice. Though you also need to look at the big picture and look at what else you are eating for that meal since it is all digested at the same time.

When deciding on a meal you want a balance of a lean protein source, 1-2 servings of vegetable and/or fruit and 1 serving of a higher fiber whole-grain carbohydrate food choice. When eating balanced like this your total glycemic level will be lower, which means your blood sugar levels don't rise as high and your body promotes fat usage for energy instead of fat storage.

When you eat a lean protein source at your feeding opportunities you are also releasing a hormone called glucagon that is the opposite of insulin and counteracts the effect of insulin by promoting the release of fat to be used as energy instead of storing it.

So my answer to women who want to know what foods to eat so that they look amazing in their sexy, little mini skirt I would say plenty of foods can work as long as you eat them at the right time and in the correct portions. The best way to your mini skirt goals is to eat a lean protein source at every feeding opportunity and a vegetable that is a good source of fiber along with fiber rich whole grains. Stay away from the high sugar soft drinks, fast foods items that are high in fat and processed refined carbs and sugars.
