~all,
thank you very much for your replies. It seems that increasing carbs might be necessary. I will increase it every week and I hope to find out what is best for me.

I usually increased my carbs in the meals just before and/or after my workout.

I have to have a look into Atkins' book again.

What kind of carbs do eat? Veggies, dairy or other kinds?
