Wow, those were some good responses.

I do workout with weights and do cardio 5 days a week. In a decent my nice size gym I am always working out the hardest. Nothing short of performance. I have a low bf% but my problem is I over eat often and feel like crap. I don't so much put on fat, (though I feel a little smoother) when I gain weight it tends to come in the form of muscle but I'm trying to stay away from being to much of a monster whether it is all muscle or not. I do get hungry, but I figure with a LC diet I can curve the appetite and not eat like a mad man while being lean and muscular. Maybe by not eating whatever is in my way like a savage beast I can also cut back on my workout times. I have to say carbs after and/or a little after the workout I am hesitant to give up. Your right on the money with weights being best for fat burning. Only a poor diet will continue to set you back. By poor, I am refering to eating to much. I'm wondering, Is BFL a beginners program and have you tried it? What do you think?
I also have to say, everyone who replied made sense. Protein Power does sound more of a better fit for me, thats why I'm moving on to it next. Atkins is very informative though, and I'm liking the science of it all.
Once I hit my desireable weight and hit a maintenace program, I'm going to be able to preserve muscle, right?
Thanks again, it's becoming clearer on the daily.
