I gave up on Atkins a long time ago. But this is what I'm doing that you all might find interesting. The entire month of January, I'm fasting for spiritual growth and purification. The fast entails:
When I wake up, I drink water with fresh squeezed lemon in it (no sugar). This is suppose to detox your body and make you regular. Not to be nasty, but a lot of us need to be detoxed.
Eat only fruit until noon
Afterwards, eat sensibly
The only thing I'm drinking is water (no pop, juice, tea, etc.)
NO beef or pork
Excercise 3-4 days a week
What do you think?
Keep us posted, Honeykiss, and good luck!

Hmmm. I do drink tap water with lemon (to kill the taste), but I never though about as a fasting aid.
The last time I fasted, I did "Daniel's Fast" in the Bible which consisted of water and vegetables.
After fasting, I though about continuing to do it, but I would add lean protein and fish to it. Talk about no carbs!
I think you should be ok with what you're doing, especially since you are not doing a COMPLETE fast (no food or water). Honestly, your fast sounds no different from any sensible meal plan.
Breakfast - Fruit
Lunch - Sensible meal
Dinner - Sensible meal
Drink lots of water!!
