Bikes: too numerous to count

and the fat you don't burn turns to fat, and the protein you don't burn...

I have diabetes and take insulin (type 1). For kidney health I cut my animal protein down from 100 g/d to 30 g/d, added plant protein 30 g/d and replaced the rest of the daily kcal with carbs. No change in weight (80 kg) and my daily insulin dose actually went down 20% even though I'm eating 40 g/d more carbs. People who buy into this 'carbs are bad, make you fat' are shocked that I can eat so many carb calories and not gain weight. A bicycle is a great way to burn the fuel.
