[QUOTE="Applenerd81, post: 889160, member: 135354"] Are you really low carbing? The best test for this is having a blood ketone monitor, which you should have as a type 1 on pump. Being in a state of ketosis and having blood glucose in control show a healthy state of fat burning. If your not in ketosis it's highly likely your not following a low (enough) carb diet. Also you can't have regular cheat days on low carb as the body can take up to a week to recover back into a state of optimum fat burning. I have done LCHF since January this year and have lost 10kg slowly, without once being hungry and little change in my activity. My ketone readings are generally around 0.5-1.5 most the time. I have noticed intensive/competitive exercise seems to stop ketosis/fat burning temporarily too! If in doubt eat less carbs, protein and eat more good fat. [/QUOTE]
