Fat Burning Phase

This second phase can last until desired weight achieved. You can add beans, fruits, whole grain, brown rice, red wine, all grain and whole-wheat cereals and bread in moderation. You can add fruits as part of the snake and can actually ease the craving for sweets. The amount added should reflex the desired weight loss of 1-2 pounds a week, so you should weight yourself frequently, usually same time everyday. Most of the initial weight loss in first phase is water loss, second phase is when the fat is really burned and used as part of energy source.

This is the phase very likely to fail, because it can last for a long time, initial water loss might regain and a lot of people relax and indulge in poor food choice again. By now you should already establish your daily exercise routine which is so important that it will make or break your success in losing weight. You can always go back to first phase anytime again. If you think first phase is too restrictive you can skip it and start second phase right away. Just have slower weight lose of 1-2 pounds a week.
