Ziggy is right. I husband who body builds and cousin who is a trainer, nutritionist and yoga instructor told me to do basically what ziggy is stating above. It is very important if you are losing weight to do toning exercises. I really don't want the fatty loose skin wobbling on my arms like I still weigh 216 when I weigh 130. I have much more stamina and energy and can bench 30 pounds more then I could before the start of atkins. If the person above is losing energy fast something must be missing from their daily diet. I feel better then I ever have in my whole life.

If you have read Dr. Atkins books, any of them, you will remember that diet pills are a HUGE no-no. He considered it cheating and was totally against them.

I was in a small town "famous chain" grocerystore w/ pharmacy. I was a few feet away from the Pharmacist having a discussion with a client about diet pills. I wasn't trying to over hear, but they were talking loud enough to where you couldn't help it.

He said it would be better to do a low carb diet or find some diet plan over the diet pills. His next statement shocked me! "Diet pills are like swallowing a razorblade, the dangerous side effects are constantly coming out." That's one piece of advice I don't think I will ever want to forget!

learn how to lift heavy weights for example learn how to do squats and maybe do thigh extensions and leg curls before doing squats so you dont hurt your knees

Everything I've been told is that if you don't bounce on your squat, you won't hurt your knees. I don't feel squats much in my knees. It's pretty much glutes and quads.

Deadlifts are also great lifts that help with a lot of everyday tasks.

Don't worry about getting bulky. Those women who get manlike rarely get that way without significant control over their diet and lots of lifting.
