I am a type 1 diabetic, a firefighter, and I've been weightlifting for many years. I have good muscle mass but struggle to lose fat. It feels like I'm constantly putting on muscle while my fat remains the same. I'm not obese, but I could probably lose 30 lbs. I've recently started a low-carb diet to reduce how much insulin I need in hopes of decreasing insulin resistance. However, I've tried various approaches without seeing results. I've run huge and small calorie deficits for months, tried fixing my metabolism by adjusting my intake, and experimented with different types of exercise, including keto, steady state cardio, HIIT, and tabata programs. While my fitness levels have improved, aesthetically, I haven't seen significant changes. I'm concerned that the anabolic effect of insulin might be causing a problem. Do you have any advice on how to lose fat as a type 1 diabetic?
