“On Phase 1, your goal is to keep your net carbohydrate intake at 50 grams per day or less. Carbohydrates are not just found in sugars, starches, and grains, but are also found in healthy foods such as vegetables, nuts, and dairy products. That’s where you’ll be getting most of your carbohydrates in this phase, but they will make up a small percentage of your daily intake, with satiating protein and fat providing the rest. When you’re on Phase 1, you’ll eat a lot of non-starchy vegetables, including broccoli, asparagus, cauliflower, and zucchini, as well as healthy fats such as full-fat dairy and olive oil. You’ll also be consuming fat contained in high-quality proteins such as fish, meat, poultry, eggs, and other foods. Ultimately, you will be able to incorporate a small amount of higher-carbohydrate foods, such as lentils and black beans, into your diet. THE DETAILS OF PHASE 2 I like to classify Phase 2 as the lifestyle phase, although you may continue to lose weight, depending on your food selections.”
