Message: <blockquote data-quote="zand" data-source="post: 945257" data-attributes="member: 85197">I have tried both low carb and low fat diets.  I am  a T2 with insulin resistance.  The 5 day high fat diet was incredible for weight loss for me.  I can only say what works for me.  The low fat 600 cals  mostly carbs diet (7 weeks) was nowhere near as good as the high fat one.Details of both are here:-<a href="http://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/threads/my-5-day-dairy-fat-fast.81433/" target="_blank">http://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/threads/my-5-day-dairy-fat-fast.81433/</a>I did not cut calories during the fat fast, in fact I almost doubled my normal calorie intake.  In short, I'm not bothered by what scientists or studies say, in my case seeing is believing, that's enough metabolic reason for me to reduce carbs and increase fat.  Then there's all the extra energy and the feel good factor.edit:  Fats are necessary for good health, carbs are not, it makes sense to cut the carbs and keep the fats.</blockquote>
