I hope people got back home, or to their next destination, okay. I was impressed with how far some of you came. I'll be looking forward to the next one even more.
@ewelina, here's the International table of glycemic index and glycemic load values, my little gift for you choosing a nice pub and arranging it http://ajcn.nutrition.org/content/76/1/5.full.pdf I think it's been a big help to me :)

Thanks Chris. I will definitely use it. Hopefully next time when we meet my readings will as good as yours :)

That possibly depends on your willpower and how much you're willing to suffer. Only joking. I often forgot the main idea is to try and balance the different GL and GI values when you eat. But I think you knew that already :)

I really enjoyed meeting you all. I think I saw a comment on another thread that you were organising the next one for September? @ewelina ?

I'm not trying to muscle in on the organising, and this is just a suggestion - could we make it, for example, 1st saturday of the month or every 6th saturday ? Something like that with a regular pattern so we can work out the dates in advance? What do you guys think?

Good idea. I will post here in advance but maybe having some kind of regularity will help. I suggest 26th of September as I know Brian will be away before that. We could start from that date and have it on last Saturday of the month?

Im thinking about long walk in Richmond park if anyone fancies joining me. I guess I should post it as separate thread though
