also exercise is probably more implicated than diet: exercise
is less precisely measured and yet more consistently
associated with better glucose disposal.

nonetheless low kcal diet lowers insulin requirements in
diabetics because KCAL has an effect of lengthening insulenima
time to clear blood glucose..

finally I think some attempt should be made to compare
glycogen stores in obese vs. atheletes. If insulin resistance
is associated with impared glycogen storage (probably due to
sedentary lifestyle), how does this affect amount of glycogen
(available for exercise) in cases..

also it is a long weekend, sunny, and should be back @
the beach.
