I would really consider switching to some sort of calistenic exercise rather than weights - if you want to lose weight. I have gotten to a point in my life that if I pump - I grow - big time.

Hold on Mills - weight is not just a number! That number equates to more tissue for your one heart to pump blood to.

I followed Atkins concepts for about 12 years. Basically, I ate meat and green leafy stuff with very minimal carbs. In fact, my main source of carbs came from beer - maybe 3-4 beers a day. Everything was fine except my triglycerides were quite high but my cholesteral was within range - barely. I'm age 46 and about 3 years…
