burning fat instead of carbs. Naturally then, lowering carbs when you are eating accelerates the fat burning because there are less carbs to burn. It really probably would have a positive effect just limiting carbs to 100g/day. I've gone a bit more aggressive than that and I typically eat less than 25g/day.

But, hey, if it is working for you, I'm super-glad to hear it.

Interestingly (or maybe not) I find I'm eating less on the non-fasting days and it turns out there are naturally fewer carbs in my meals. - Covington Sep 13, 13:39 1
- Yeah, I ran into the same. I half expected that I would gorge myself once I could eat but I tend to eat much less at meals. - oblique Sep 13, 13:41
