[QUOTE="Resurgam, post: 2267965, member: 355878"] as you eat fewer carbs your body will convert to ketosis and start to burn fats, but you have stores of energy in easily accessible form - I think it is glycogen (but there are a lot of glycosomethings about) mainly in the liver and muscle tissue - that is emptied out during the first stages of low carb eating. When you see a reduction in your waist size I suspect that indicates that your liver has begun to shrink down. I lost about 12 inches off my waist in the first few months - I really cannot deal with carbohydrate but have always had GPs who pushed for a high carb diet, lots of those healthy fruits and vegetables which were killing me bit by bit.
