How many GiPs per day should I be on?
You have a fixed number of GiPs per day depending on which of the three phases of the diet you’re in (GiP is the unit of measurement in the diet, like a score). These targets are given in the table in the book (Chapter 3, The Diet Programme). For example, a woman starting the diet (the Start-it phase), should be on 17 GiPs per day for the first two weeks. However, each person’s body and lifestyle is different so the GiPs target is just an estimate to start you off (see next question).
