That must feel SO good shellbaby. Excellent!

Thanks so much for posting the science NortonMan, that will help many of us. I know I like things explained (although my body intuition is always first *grin*).

The same site also says:
Quote:
Fatty acids cannot be used directly to produce glucose. However, gycerol, a product of fat metabolism, can and does go through the gluconeogenic pathway to produce glucose. Glycerol is a minor component in fats, and accounts for only 9 to 15% of the total mass.

Fats are much less important than proteins in the gluconeogenic process.


RaceGirl28 let us know how it goes. Good luck!

I had a week of no loss due to carb up days (parties) and then having to lose the small gain. No problem - I thoroughly enjoyed the parties.

Back to regular program, weight coming off nice and steady again. I think I've lost 4.6lbs/2.1kg since the stall and going high fat. That includes some carb-up days (parties, eating out). So when I'm losing, I'm actually losing at the rate of about 1.5lbs a week.
