Wow. Congrats. Thats great. I joined a gym and am going to be doing 2 hours of cardio every day ( so I say ) so hopefully the pounds will drop off faster like that.

jogging is unquestionably fine on Atkins. Just make sure you eat 90 almanac beforehand ( boiled egg will do ), have high grade running shoes ( look for extra support in the heels ), race on softer surafces ( tarmac is hard on your shins and joints ) and be sure to eat protein within 60 magazine AFTER the dart.
Happy trails! [ / icon_cool. gif]

Does the eating 90 mins before and 60 mins after rule further to all exercise?

its a good practice. i used to be a triathlete and know training very well. Here is the logic behind the eating....
BEFORE WORKOUT:
As we are cutting out carbs, which many athletes use for endurance training and general exercise, its best to give the body a little food to fuel the workout. Not at lot, or you will feel sick but a little snack. I normally go for a handful of nuts, piece of cheese, grilled chicken breast or an egg 90 minutes before workout. Do not eat within 60 minutes before exercising!
AFTER WORKOUT: The body needs to feel that after a hard workout ( equivalent to hunting food in cave man terms ), that it will be rewarded with food. otherwise, if it exercises and receives no nourishment, it will think it will starve and hold on to fat like mad to survive. Even a simple hard - boiled egg is plenty of food and sends the right message to your brain.
As a general rule, its best to eat a little bit several times throughout the day. This speeds up your metabolism!!

If you are only just starting jogging, it might be better to jog every other day for the first week or two.
