[quote=Anonymous]Ugh. Every marathon runner is running off of fat in their body until it has to hit the “emergency reserves” of glucose stores. Fat is the primary source of energy for everyone on this planet. Everyone needs fat. You have more fat stores than Glucose/glycogen stores. If you use your glucose stores in a race your body will spend days (burning fat days after a race) to replenish glucose stores. That is why runners stay so lean - their bodies are always burning fat even when they are not running. To lose weight you need to stop adding to your fat (diet) and your body will convert your fat to energy to live. Exercise just can help accelerate that process and make maintaining your goal fitness level more likely.[/quote]
