Subject: How much exercise is enough?

Hi all-

I have a question..okay..I have been on Atkins since 05.01.02. I exercise everyday mon-fri using a Tae Bo video..sometimes I add to my exercise by playing racquetball for about an hour 2x a week. This is every week. Now, I was told that my body might be getting used to the Tae Bo work outs and I should try and vary them this way...my body will lose more weight. But, isn't it better to have a routine going than to change things around? I have a routine...My mind is set as to what I have to do everyday..(like doing laundry on wednesdays and fridays, yup, I don't have a life, ha ha).
Should I vary my work outs? I let my body rest on the weekends. I don't do a lick of exercise then. I was thinking about lifting weights maybe 1x or 2x per week. I wanted to try this...Tae Bo 3x a week...weights 1x a week...racquetball 2x a week. This is like 3 different types of work outs in one week...would that give me enough variety?
Or I could go with Tae Bo 3x a week plus racquetball 2x a week.
any help would be greatly appreciated....

Much Love,
Zoe (Moody)
