Please read the link about starting Phase 2 for more info about this. Here's the short answer:
Member Question: How much fruit can we eat in Phase 2 per day? I usually stick to fresh strawberries and blueberries, but don't want to overdo it.
Maureen: We recommend slowly increasing your intake of fruit on Phase 2. In the first week, you will want to have one fruit per day; the second week, two fruits; and the third week, three fruits. Once you are in two to three weeks of Phase 2, you can maintain your fruit intake to two to three per day. Some members find they can have three with no changes in weight loss — others remain with two.
Good luck,
Mags
