Is it possible...

Is it possible to lose fat, but gain muscle just from eating right? I've lost 2 inches, but have maintained my weight without much exercise.
Thanks!

Well, no. You cannot gain muscle while eating at a deficit. In order to gain muscle you would need resistance training with a calorie surplus. Simply eating right will help you to lose weight, but will not do a thing for the muscle.

Now, if you are hoping to make your existing muscle more noticeable by reducing the layer of body fat over the muscle, that you can do. But it's going to take exercise. This will get you going: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/1175494-a-guide-to-get-you-started-on-your-path-to-sexypants
