Jus in general not eating a lot of carbs except maybe on special occasions. Does it work? i know with the Atkins the science of it is your body eventually starts to burn the fat. can you eat alow carb high protein lifestyle with out doing atkins and south beach just kinda your own thing? Does it work?

I am doing a low carb diet

I eat egg whites, cheese, meats, veggies and salads.

I cut out sugar

I cut out soda

I drink tons of water

I drink coffee with half and half and splenda

In the past 6 weeks I have lost 9.2lbs and I have noticed my clothing starting to feel loose
