Also a good proportion of T2 people are thin to begin with. They just happen to be fat on the inside where the fat can't be seen. You may also be fat on the inside even though you have lost your subcutaneous fat. (Fatty livers, and fat round the pancreas)There is no need to be constipated on a low carb diet. I'm not. We can obtain plenty of fibre from seeds, nuts and other veggies. Fibre isn't restricted to breakfast cereals and bread. A serving or two of ground flax or chia seeds every day will sort you out. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
