    No idea! But your muscles burn glycogen, so I wonder if you could take the rough amount burned during work out and divide it by 4 (1g carb has roughly 4 cal). It would be quite an inaccurate measure and probably a pointless calculation but that's all I could think of...
    Start weight: 14.9
    Jan - May: S&S then low carb -14lbs

    October - Healthy eating (aiming for primal but not quite as strict), lots of exercise!

    Aiming to be under 12 stone for my birthday in November...
