I was terrified to move onto OWL. I just did it really slowly. I did 25 g of carbs for two weeks and then 30 for two weeks..... until I quit losing at just above 40. I figured I needed to see a couple of weeks worth to figure out if something was not working.

I have been doing this for almost 6 months. Here is my recorded weight and waist measurement every week: Notice that my weight sometimes does not change, but my waist will or vice versa! The first three weeks I was in induction, so really look after that. First number is weight, second is waist size:
