If you were eating, let's say, 12 net carbs on average during Induction, then you only add 5 net veggie carbs to these, to get 17 g for your OWL Rung 1 (or at least for the first part of it, because you can do it for more than a week).

I believe that the best way to overcome temptation is not with willpower, which is so often in short supply, but with our brain power, a potentially unlimited resource.
Imagine that you're doing great, losing weight, feeling better than ever, thrilled with yourself, hearing compliments from friends and acquaintances---and then it happens! Despite all your good intentions, you're mightily tempted by a food you're not supposed to have. What to do? I'll tell you this: You'd better have a strategy ready!"
