[QUOTE="AloeSvea, post: 2602873, member: 150927"] I can't imagine being as active as you are AND go on a calorie deficit way of eating - and for how long could it last? I am physically active, and need food to fuel that. As do we all, I might venture to say! (I understand you are type 1 so am expecting lots of sporty type ones to contribute on that one...) So as a low-carb type two-er, I consider myself fat-fuelled. Plenty of literature on that being a good way to go for those with diabetes, and athletes generally. Plug it in to your search engine and have fun reading up on it - and be prepared to be reading for a long while! The bible, if you like, on the topic is Volek and Phinney's 'The Art and Science of Low Carbohydrate Performance'. I watched a great vid from a Low Carb Down Under conference from some years ago, by Prof Caryn Zinn - she is very good on Low-carb fat-fuelled performance and spells it out with great graphics in her slides. The one I am thinking of is low-carb for weight loss and athletes. I highly recommend having a gander at her presentations. And she co-authored a book called 'What the Fat' which is also excellent.
