    After losing over 100 lbs on the Atkins diet, I regained all that I lost. For me, dieting is not the answer. I have to change my lifestyle. For good.

    I'm still undecided on whether to join a gym. I'm still sufficiently challenged by the biking and walking that I do. And I enjoy both activities. I find "working out" mind numbingly boring when it's not downright unpleasant. But on the other hand, maybe if my muscle mass increases, my metabolism will get kicked into high gear. What to do?

      I'm 9 weeks out, and most of my exercise comes from walking or biking, although I do have dumbbells and do light lifting a few times a week. If walking and biking work for you, stick with it. I find I don't stay with what I don't enjoy, so I stick with the tried and true :D

      Biking and walking is a great source of exercise. However working your muscles and doing some strength training burns more calories longer. Plus you will want to start working on toning your muscles with all the weight loss. Best of luck and keep on moving! :)
