Phase II...Lets talk!!
Below is our food list and meal plan guide for phase II. Please note that it does not say that you have to add grain right away, however, it does say starch!! It suggests in the meal plan guide to have a cereal for breakfast but it is not mandatory...nor is bread, even whole grain bread.
Through much trial and error, I've discovered that its best to go very slowly adding foods back in. I suggest first week 1 piece of fruit per day. Second week, you can also add in a starchy veggie along with the fruit ie: carrots, butternut squash, sweet potato. If you like rice, try brown rice.
I've also discovered that eating these carb foods in their most unprocessed form is best. So if you like oatmeal, go for steel cut oats or old fashioned oats...no instant!!
IMO, avoiding flour(any flour) until you are well into phase II is a good thing to do.

How to adapt your meal plan - Phase 2
In Phase 2, you'll gradually begin to reintroduce healthy carbohydrates into your diet. Here's how to do it: Week one and two: Add in two good carb choices daily. We suggest you reintroduce fruit at lunch, dinner, or as a snack, but it's not the best choice first thing in the morning at breakfast. We recommend a high-fiber cereal for breakfast. Week three and four: move to four good carbs choices daily: 1-2 fruits and 1-2 starches. Read more advice on reintroducing carbs here. Want specific food choices? You can now eat anything from the Phase 1 Foods to Enjoy list as well as items from the Phase 2 Foods to Reintroduce list.
