Thinking about it

So, after successfully losing the bulk of my weight, I'm looking to lose the last few lbs, about 7 to be precise, though if i lose 3 - 4 % Body Fat I am not overly bothered about the scales. Atkins has had some bad press but from what I've seen on the site just seems to be controlling carbs? Oh and I tried their Daybreak Chocolate Crisp bar - yum.
So I'm contemplating giving it a go, I put my details in and it suggested I go straight to phase 3 but it's not too clear what this entails. I don't know how many carbs I can eat, and what is off limits etc... Also is alcohol completely off limits?
Any advice is greatly appreciated - thanks!

It's pre-maintenance.

I was eating at full maintenance for a while and doing great, maintaining within a lb, but am going back to phase 3 to lose a few lbs myself. Pre-maintenance is about 75 net carbs for me depending on my activity level.
Go to their site linked above for links to foods etc.0 -
Thank you very much
