I just ordered some l-glutamine (not from above source - I just thought you might like to see this). It's supposed to preserve lean muscle while you're losing weight (keeping your metabolism higher in the long run). Helping your body handle the stress of low carbing and exercising, and curging carb cravings (can you say that 3x fast?).
I think something like this is super important if you're lifting or really doing any sort of exercise. Muscle is our friend! Can't wait to get my order in the mail! I am such a geek!!

On Atkins you eat enough protein that your muscles aren't being used to burn for fuel. You burn fat instead of both fat and protein. |
