Modified Atkins?!?

hey guys I'm new to this place! So, I have some questions.. first a little about me... Im 5'9 and 127 pounds (as of right now)
One of my good friends told me of this "modified Atkins diet" and how well it works. They lost 12 pounds in about 3 weeks... (yes I know its still mainly water weight but after that you start loosing more fat) anyway, their diet consists of---- lots of protien, veggies, and fruits... cutting out : all bad carbs (four, pasta,bread etc), sugar, coffee etc. Then, I eat 5-6 small meals a day and do cardio for 30-45 mins a day. So, I have done it for about a week now and have lost around 3 pounds.

I was just wondering, has anyone done a diet similar to this and lost weight?!?

Also, I know lots of you are eating 5-6 small meals a day. What do you consider as small? Cuz I feel as though I am eating so much and sometimes I eat a "small" meal even though I am not very hungry.

Also, I am wondering if I should just stop "modifying" this Atkins diet and go for it all the way... the only problem is I love fruit so I dont know how I can last the initial 2 weeks without a bite of fruit.

Thanks guys!
