Phase 2 : Food Lists

Introduction

Phase 2 continues from where Phase 1 left off and lasts until you reach your weight-loss goal.

This phase allows you to reintroduce healthy carbs and allows some indulgences. The goal remains to eat three balanced meals a day, and to eat enough so that you don't feel hungry all the time.
