I'm at the end of my seventh week of Atkins and after the initial massive losses [17lbs in first two weeks] my weekly reduction is currently averaging around 3lbs.

Age: 32
Height: 6'4"
Current weight: 295
Body Fat %tage: 18.54 [according to mybodycomp.com] - I'm suspicious of these results.

I'm exercising 6-7 days a week for 45 mins on a dual action cross trainer; 80-85% of max heart rate. I'm also weight training for a similar period twice a week and working my stomach muscles for 20 mins every morning [or until I can't handle the cramping anymore]. As my appetite has shrunk as a result of this WOE, my intake is down to around 2000 cals which sates me perfectly [no hunger pangs, no cravings]. I'm also setting world records for water cosumption; > 6 litres a day, everyday.

I'm intrigued as to the possibility of having gained lean body mass as a result of this training regime which is offsetting my overall weight loss week on week. Although I'm doubtfull that LBM increases would show in such a relatively short time frame.

I'd be most grateful for any advice.
