[QUOTE="Handyníall, post: 91283, member: 21426"] Actually fats contain more calories than carbohydrates (and it's technically considered unhealthy to be eating over 2500 calories) I survive on about 2250-2400. However, I also have a lot of muscle (if I do say so myself) and I initially found some muscle loss when I converted to the low-carb diet (I was trying to balance how much protein and fat to eat, and my body started to break down my muscles), but after that, it was easy-peasy to build it back up (I was eating a lot of protein, so my muscles could repair after I'd worked out).
