For those of you that have tried the Atkins diet what did you notice happened to your energy level. I don't mean if you just sat around working all day and got up to go take a pee once in a while. I'm talking about any of you that keep up with some sort of strenuous physical activity.

I'm asking because I race bikes and I've always found that I need lots of carbs and calories to be able to do the longer mileage rides and races... anything over 60 miles or so. I don't really want to lose much over 10 pounds or so but I'm having trouble getting rid of some fat around my waist. My legs, arms and shoulders are ripped but I carry some excess fat around my chest and abs that I'd like to get rid of. I thought maybe the Atkins diet would be worth a try but I can't afford to run low on energy.
