Default Moving to OWL 1 - quick question

Hi all! Just finished induction today, had a great loss of 18 pounds. Figured I would move on to OWL Rung 1 and enjoy a few more veggies.

Is it still considered OWL 1 if there's the occasional day that I don't eat 25 net grams of carbs? Say I eat 18 one day, then 25 the next, then 16 the next... is that okay?

The 25 net carbs would be your number to aim for if you have been averaging 20 net carbs on induction.

So eat your 3 cups of induction veg and add your 5 net carbs of veg, eating all other foods in the same amounts as you did during induction.

Thanks everyone!

It's been tougher than I thought it would be to eat more carbs. Making a few new dishes with added veggies to try and sneak them in.
