Exercising on Atkins Can Be Good!
After a month and a half and 24lbs of weight loss, I finally decided to
start running for 30 minutes 3-4 times a week. Was reluctant because I thought that not consuming enough carbs would make runs difficult. Then I decided that there was no way my 30 minute run was likely to be long enough for a lack of carbs to be a factor. I was right. But what I hadn't considered was how much easier it would be to do the run 24lbs lighter! I feel great out there! I guess that makes sense because running before was basically like running while toting around 3 gallons of milk! If you haven't exercised since you started Atkins, you should try it.

Exercising on Atkins Can Be Good!
Way to go Chris
I run too.. though sporadic. (doing a gym workout now 3x a week) Exercising make you feel like a million dollars... and you're right.. the weight loss just keeps making it seem easier and easier. Good way to look at it in terms of the gallons of milk ! Amazing how much lighter you can feel with just a few gallons gone. ~Karen~ On Tue, 23 Sep 2003 15:04:55 GMT, "Chris" wrote: After a month and a half and 24lbs of weight loss, I finally decided to start running for 30 minutes 3-4 times a week.
