Re: Hello All!

I don't see your workout plan?
I'm going to be the nay sayer about the atkins scenario due to the fact that everyone reads the first part about induction and stops there. They never reintroduce carbs etc. Be aware that without a good workout plan you'll be dropping a lot of muscle as well as fat. When I dropped 50lbs 3 years ago with Atkins I never exercised and couldn't maintain the "lifestyle". The workout and reduced intake program I'm on now I feel much healthier, stronger, "sexier" and revitalized as to just skinnier on the Atkins plan.

I know it's day one and I don't want to rain on your parade but at a minimum start doing 15 minutes or cardio first week and ramp up 5 additional minutes until you're at 40 minutes per day 5 days a week.

Good luck!!!
Mike
