    I get woozy just from delaying a meal so deficit is not really an option. My doctor calls it "reactive hypoglycemia."

    Watch your sugar intake and when you're eating something with high sugar (including natural sugars like fruit) pair it with a protein. Once I followed my doctor's advice and started doing this, my need for glucose tablets has gone to just about zero (which by the way is the immediate solution for a reactive hypoglycemia episode, not a Snickers bar as my mom always told me! LOL). I rarely, if ever, have these episodes anymore because I'm just monitoring what I'm eating with what.

    I've gained weight and lost body fat and am currently going through that again, so it is possible.

    Cut the OP a break..I'm sure he meant muscle is less dense than fat.
