Burns sugar first and then once you run out of that it’ll start to burn fat then if you run out of that it will burn protein from muscles.

Hunger is sometimes a result of an insulin result. Your brain may have told the hypothalamus to tell the pancreas that either food is coming or should be coming. So the hormonal signal says release insulin.
When insulin releases that signals the adipose tissue (fat cells) to sweep the fatty acids from the blood, because the body is about to be burning sugar. If no sugars are coming, then the raised insulin levels tell the brain to find food.
When not hungry, the body is burning fatty acids that are the primary cellular food. When the body starts running out of blood fat packets then it starts to borrow proteins, as in muscle, and then extra fat, at least according to one popular theory.
Part of the problem is that the world is full of theories and the body is very complex so it is often quite hard to say exactly in your body at your specific moment of hunger.
Try this, cut back on refined sugars and simple carbohydrates (breads cakes, cookies, crackers, etc.). Then help yourself with proteins and fats. I know that sounds terrible, but if your body isn’t kicking in the insulin switch, then the body burns fatty acids. If the insulin is flowing, then there are no fatty acids to burn–your fat cells are being stuffed with them right then.

the key to lose weight is to eat what you can burn if u want to eat that pie go for a jog, do you want it still?, take a sip of milk, and then do u want it still? if so eat it, dont eat things you dont like, dont ignore ur tummy when it says im full, portion control, eat little amounts, and eat as much raw veggies as you can, and fruits too. lean meats, like chicken, fish, that stuff. pasta little amounts.
and it burns muscle i learned this in science class.
and try this stuff: http://www.acaiburn.com/stock_updateWD.p…
