So I'm following strict atkins. I've had great luck with this diet before. This time I incorporated excercise. I bike 5-10 miles a day, which takes 30 minutes to an hour. I've also been doing some strength training. The keto-strips are dark. I'm not even eating too much cheese, to avoid hidden carbs. I haven't been using any of the atkins products either. Just protein, fat, limited veggies, and a small amount of cheese.

Why am I not losing? What can I do?

Help please!

if your cycling and working out you my be tonning up muscle so while the scales say your not loosing weight you are burning fat off and tonning muscle. best way to tell is how your clothes feel on u. any looser?

I would suspect the same thing. If you are strength training, then you are building up your muscles which will mean you will gain weight. I would do more cardio workouts that will help you burn fat without building up muscle mass.
