It's good your getting results.
Sounds like we may be eating in a similar way. I'm doing The Primal Blueprint. Which is a low carb diet, but not as extreme as atkins. The author recommends 100-150 grams a day. I don't think I could do no carbs at all, and he actually recommends against that.
I just tried that fitnesspal thing out of interest. And my carbs are approx just under 150. Atleast they will be today.
I'm eating little wheat, but still crave it alot. And some days I will have it, usually in the form of making a pizza from pitta bread with just tomato paste and cheese.
The challenge is lowering my carbs and also eating meat, I don't like alot of it and sausages don't really cut it, but that's what i've started with.
The author is also big on cutting out wheat. You might like the book.
