Ok, there are quite a few of you with experience and some that sound more knowledgable than the average joe on this subject. I'm 6'1 and 245lb. I've -always- been a bit fat. Even as a kid, when I played sports year around (Soccer, baseball, basketball and indoor soccer) I was a bit on the fat side, and we ran a mile or 2 at every soccer practice. Exercise helps up a to a point, then seems to level off and stop helping (cardio 45min/day, weight training 2-3 days a week) -- I've thought about atkins because my diet has ALWAYS been pretty high in carbs. Pasta's, breads, potatoes, rice, etc. A lot of other diets have failed for me, and like I said, even running all the time in sports never really slimmed me down (you can actualy see a the lines of a six pack in my cooler, you just also see a lot of cooler too :P ) --will something like the atkins diet actualy work for me? Or am I just in that small percentage that is just kind of stuck with it? It doesn't really effect my luck with the ladies, that hasn't been much of a problem, and I 'wear the weight well' --it's distributed so I look more like a football player than a couch potatoe. Just kinda --thick. Any suggestions?
