what happens when??

[poppie]

I have been in induction for 23 day, have lost 12lbs, for a week not nothing, and I think the inches are not doing anythink either, should I start OWL? If I increase the 5 xtra carbs can I decrease if need to? Do we keep the
65% - 5% - 30% on OWL as well? Poppie sw363 cw351 gw 200

Re: what happens when??

it is very normal to have a post 124 day induction slow dawn in weight and inces loss because of all the changes doing on in your body. Read chapter 13 and decide if you want to move to OWL or do extened induction. once you decide to move to OWL you will add back 5 more net carbs of the induction chapter 11 veggies to thew 3 cups you are already eating. As you move up the carb ladder in OWL you will be adding slightly more carbs to your eating. if you keep the same amount of fat added to your veggies like a teaspoon of oil or butter but now you have more vegies in the serving you will see your fat percent will come down slightly. Becauee you have the new carb foods to add in you will be eating slightly less of your other foods like your induction higher fat snack foods cause you will be replacing them with those newer carb ladder foods.

Happy low carbing.
