I just bought the blueprint and have been on a kdto diet for a long time. I am almost to my desired weight. Once I reach it do I need to do a famine diet before the next phase. I already feel like I am on a famine diet.

New to Blueprint myself, but I think you need to do the famine phase! Your body is already used to keto, the point of the famine phase is to shock your body and prepare it for the upcoming feast. If you go straight to feast, it won't be as effective. Also, low carb is not adviced during famine, instead carbs should be your energy source number one during that time.
