It is always important to consider just what you should be eating on Phase 2, as this particular phase of the program requires extensive effort on the part of users to comply to the different guidelines. Firstly, starches and sugars need to be avoided as part of phase 2, but that makes it difficult for many people to select recipes that both taste good, and follow the rules. Likewise, protein should be added and fruits/vegetables eaten with each meal (or for snacks). Below we discuss a few great examples of phase 2 “meals”. Please drop us a line if you have suggestions we can highlight in the future!
