[QUOTE="fergus, post: 83400, member: 6150"] Hi vidareve, The alarm bells were ringing at first when I saw you were trying to lose some weight at a BMI of 21! When I did the maths I got a BMI of 25 though, is that right? Medical history is full of example of failed attempts at losing weight through calorie restriction. The consensus seems to be that calorie restriction is more likely to induce a slowing of the metabolism to compensate so that weight stabilises, then increases when calories are restored. 200g of carbs on a 1200 calorie diet isn't likely to succeed in my view. That's a high carb diet by anyones definition. How much insulin are you using and how are your blood sugars? All the best, fergus [/QUOTE]
