Phase 1 (induction): Under 20 grams of carbs per day for 2 weeks. Eat high-fat, high-protein, with low-carb vegetables like leafy greens. This kick-starts the weight loss. Phase 2 (balancing): Slowly add more nuts, low-carb vegetables and small amounts of fruit back to your diet.
Moreover, how much weight can you lose on Atkins Phase 1?

Also question is, can you drink vodka on Atkins Phase 1?
The Bottom Line. Certain types of alcohol are low-carb or carb-free and can fit into a low-carb diet. These include light beer, wine and pure forms of liquor like whiskey, gin and vodka. However, it’s best to stick to no more than 1–2 drinks per day, as excessive intake may slow fat burning and cause weight gain.
