I don't have the book in front of me, so I can't quote page numbers, but there's a section called "Foods to Enjoy" and another called "Foods to Avoid" for Phases 1 and 2. No food list for Phase 3.
Similar to Atkins in Phase 1, except that SBD encourages low-fat cuts of meat and low-fat dairy products, as long as the lower fat isn't replaced with carbs.
Phase 2 is where you'll see the biggest change between Atk and SBD. SBD re-introduces fruit, cereals, all veggies, but never high fat.
Good luck..........
