So make sure your stalls are really stalls with a lean body mass or a fat fass measuring device cause while we are working hard shedding fat we are nmorphing our bodies adding lean tissue pounds. You don't want to be thinking no fat is being shed and mess up a great thing you got going on doing your Atkins.

Since you enjoy walking try doing some HIIT as part of your walking alternating the speeds will help burn more fat for the same exercise period.

What are you doing for your resistance exercise part of your Atkins. weight lifting will help shed pounds of fat too.

Wow this is great! I makes me feel so much better to know I am not alone!!!!

Oh you certainly aren't alone CoolBlackChick... just be aware of what you're eating, how much you're exercising... and if everythings fine just be patient for a while and give your body a chance to accept that you mean business!
