[QUOTE="Bluetit1802, post: 1364216, member: 94045"] Hi and welcome, It is very confusing at first. We have all been there. It is also a shame that body fat and dietary fat have the same name - this is very confusing. What makes most of us fat are the carbs, or a combination of high carbs and high fat. When we seriously reduce the carbs and increase our dietary fat, most of us lose weight. The more we reduce our carbs the more fat we need to eat in order to retain enough energy. Low carb and low fat is likely to produce fatigue. You don't have to go mad on dietary fats if you don't want to, just ditch any low fat products you eat and buy the real thing. Then use good fats to fill you up. This is a useful thread [URL]http://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/threads/a-new-low-carb-guide-for-beginners.68695/[/URL] and there is a low carb diet/weight loss plan on this website [URL]https://www.diabetes.co.uk/lowcarb/?utm_source=hp&utm_medium=dd&utm_campaign=lcp[/URL] [/QUOTE]
