You can only choose either one, otherwise, the calories just added up as these HI & LO GI Foods are ingested and digested in your diets, they will totaled up to cause health problems.
If you ar diabetic, then, you must stick to LOW GLYCEMIC foods and stay away from refined foods, sugars, processed and sodium rich snacks.

The whole idea of eating low Glycemic index foods is that they have more nutrition and fiber, and it takes your body longer to burn it off than it does if it does not have it. In other words, it keeps you from getting hungry sooner.
Brown rice has more nutrition in it than white rice, it takes your body longer to digest it. You stay full.
That is why people tell you that whole fruit is better for you than juice. Juice rarely has pulp, it might have been strained. Juice is extracted. When you eat the whole fruit you get the pulp. It takes longer for the body to digest it, and you stay full, longer.
Diabetics know not to eat white foods, and when they do, they make sure there is something else in the meal to slow things down, like some protein. White Bread, white rice, noodles, white potatoes will take a blood sugar up quickly, and the body will burn off these things quickly. And they will get hungry, because their blood sugar is going down more rapidly than if they had chosen something else.
And, the total calories of what you eat still count too. You can’t counter act a plate full of white rice with a plate full of brown rice. You ate it, the body will burn it off.
So, avoid high glycemic foods, and when you do eat them, eat a small portion, and make darn good sure the rest of the meal is healthy and balanced.

I feel that you are a bit misinformed.
The glycemic index of foods isn’t necessarily what is causing the weight gain. It’s the high empty calories that is in it.
It appears that you are wanting to find something to eat that both is filling, tastes great, and doesn’t spike your blood sugars. It also appears that you are trying to reduce your spiking by pairing your foods.
When you pair carbs – any carbs – what you want to do is eat protein and fat proportional to the carbs you eat.
Try eating your meals like this:
for every 1g of fat, eat 2g of carbs and 3g (or more) or protein. Adjust the formula to suit your body’s reaction to the consumption of carbs if necessary.
By pairing only the carbs, high and low, you are just adding carbs that convert to glucose at different rates. The end result is the same – higher blood sugars.
Perhaps you might want to look up Dr Bernstein’s diet? He’s on the web and his books are in your public library.
You need to eat 5-6 small meals per day, evenly spread throughout the day. Figure your daily caloric needs, then divide by 5 or 6. Eat that amount every 2-3 hours. Your metabolism will be higher, blood sugars on average lower, and weight control more manageable.
Avoid eating anything after 6pm if you can.
