I try to walk the dogs 3 miles a day, which I can cope with, but doing any gym work is awfully difficult to 'keep at'. I think its the boredom that kills me. You mention the glycemic index, which I use when planning my diet as well (I am diabetic - so it really helps me). Have you heard of the satiety index? It seems to be only partiallly completed, but it shows which foods keep you feeling full for longest - this has been a great benefit to me. I too find exercise more difficult than dieting.
