i was on an Atkins type diet & it worked well for me(protien power : carbohydrades addicts handbook) were 2 books i used, even dr atkins recomends weight training type of exersise to go with the diet. i must admit that i didnt stick rigidly to the books (i never have been good at following instuctions
) but i think cutting back on carb rich food like bread & potatoes & repacing with other veges has got to be good ! eating more smaller protien rich meals is suppost to alter our metabulism to burn more fat . i still eat a lot of meat, i always have, but now i watch the carbs , my weight is still droping slowly tho , but if it starts too climb to much i go into atkins- mode for a few days!.i did weigh 117kgs now i hover around 87kgs.i cycle 60ks 6 days a week as a rule, i think this enables me to be less fussy about what i eat, but i think different things work better for some than others but i do believe diet with out exersise is a waste of time:thumbup:
