[QUOTE="mattrix, post: 2253030, member: 512253"] If I am going to burn fat I'd like it to be my own, I've got enough to spare. iirc insulin inhibits lipolysis, which is what I assumed was happening. If my body wants alternate energy it seems more than happy to use protein, ultimately muscle, to make glucose, as long as there is insulin available. ps I'm only using urine dipstrips to check ketones. pps. Congrats [USER=372717]@EllieM[/USER] on avoiding DKA for 50 years. I have never seen high ketones and thought I was safe, but I went off the rails about 5 years ago, and ended in hospital with mixed acidosis and kidney failure. [/QUOTE]
