Phase 3


After 30 days on Phases 1 & 2, you will increase your calorie intake to 2,000-2,500, depending on daily activity levels. It can be a little scary to increase the calorie intake, but it is the only way to reboot metabolism. You will eat normally, until you gain 3 pounds above your current weight. When you hit the "high" weight you will go to phase 1 for 1-2 days until you get to the "low" weight. The cycle is repeated for 2-4 weeks. It will take longer between each session to regain the weight. After your metabolism has recovered, then you can repeat the 30 day cycle with 2-4 weeks of metabolic recovery until you reach your goal weight. Ideally you want to be able to maintain and eat normally and go to phase 1 once a month to control small gains. (Photo: dessert from Natale Giunta. Eat normally, and that means you can have the occasional treat)
