If insulin remains elevated, the fat isn’t available. Nor is protein, which our cells can also use for fuel if necessary: insulin also works to keep the protein stored away in the muscles. We can’t use the carbohydrates we’ve stored in the liver and muscle tissue, either, because the insulin keeps that supply locked up as well. As a result, the cells find themselves starved for fuel, and we quite literally feel their hunger. Either we eat sooner than we otherwise would have or we eat more when we do eat, or both.
