Atkins Diet Pre-Maintenance
Phase 3 of Atkins
This
phase of the Atkins Diet is for when you are almost to your goal weight.
The idea here to to gradually add more carbs and still
be losing. Increase your daily carb count by 10 grams
each week as long as you continue to lose. As you continue
to add 10 gram additions, you'll quickly reach a point
at which you will find that you are no longer losing.
If you are at your goal weight, stay at that level for
a month or so before you increase your daily carb consumption
by another 10 grams to see if you can consume that level
without gaining. Once you do begin to gain, drop back
10 grams
Dr. Atkins recommends
that you lose no more than a lb a week at this time.
You may be able to add some of the forbidden carbs back
into your diet once a week. In this phase your body
is beginning to lose the protection of ketosis. You
are preparing for the last phase which is maintenance.
