  • Joined A Gym

    OK Joined 24 hour fitness not a spam but it was super easy. Just went to the website and bingo. I figure if I spend some money on this I will use it .... and its like 2 miles away from my main cardroom/(office).

    Should be able to go whenever I want. Guess It's really time to get this weight thing taken care of and a more healthy lifestyle. A quick thanks to trish for the welcoming to the board.. Few days into induction. Not craving carbs really. In fact not really craving eating. But I am eatin my meats and some grams of carbs a day as expected. Hope all is well. Gonna go play some No Limit Holdem. My before pics are in my profile. WARNING kinda gross. LOL

    Welcome to ADBB

    And well done on joining a gym at this early stage of your Atkins journey

    I didn't get serious about exercising (apart from walking ) till I had lost most of the weight I needed to and regret not having lifted weights etc from the start
    Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
    Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!



    Check out our Low Carb Recipes website and add to it!!

      I like my gym, right now I am focusing on the cardio and 'fat burning' programs on the machines and the pool. It's close to work also and my employer pays a lot of the cost. In the winter we can go to another site which has an indoor pool and SAUNA. I love the sauna in the winter. Swimming is a good full body exercise.

      Hope you do well in your workouts!

        Way to go! I just set up a home "gym" downstairs myself, as exercise as Dr Atkins said is "non negotiable." I'm going to start doing weights as muscle burns fat 24/7! Good luck.
