I'm in my 5th week & started OWL on Day 15 because I was willing to trade slower weight loss for more variety. I did not add foods according to the carbohydrate ladder (so far I have added berries & nuts) but have followed the other rules of OWL.
As far as calories, the only reason I'm keeping an eye on them is to make sure I have enough ! I'm scared of going into starvation mode & find I need to eat 4-5 meals a day in order to stay above 1600 calories.
I've also had trouble getting enough carbs in OWL. I keep eating more veggies & have added nuts but, after subtracting the fiber, I'm finding it difficult to get 25 carbs per day, let alone 30.
