Hi!
I just started P1 on Friday, and so far, so good, but as one who exercises a lot (1 hour of cardio plus lots of weights, usually 4-5 times/week), I wonder if any adjustments need to be made to the eating plan to accomodate the increased activity level. I'm not really trying to lose a lot of weight (5'7", 135lbs), but I would like to finally, once and for all, get rid of that last stubborn layer of fat on the upper arms and belly - I can feel the six pack and triceps under there just trying to escape! Think this will work at all?
Thanks, and best of luck to all!

I just checked the book for you.

Since you are more active than the average "Jane", you can handle moving into phase2. that just means you can have fruit, whole grain bread, and other dairy strategically placed throughout the day. save your high glycemic foods for after workouts and low glycemics the rest of the time. by cutting those unnecessary carbs, you'll shed some water weight.
Hope this helps. I just joined a board where there's a room specifically for active low carbers. Lost of good insight there too
