    @kami3006 "Fueling it properly"

    Please define. Hopefully you don't mean eating 100% of your cardio burn calories.

    Hint: the fat we over-fat people carry is "proper" fuel. One can do significant cardio and maintain a calorie deficit and remain healthy while dropping weight.

    It depends on the intensity of the cardio. If you're doing a lot of low intensity stuff like walking, I think it's easier to not eat back calories. If you're doing high intensity sprints/HIIT, etc - then you're going to need to fuel that with carbohydrates or risk burning out and having crappy workouts over time.
