Jeff, congrats on those 4 lbs. It may not seem like a lot to you but it's 4 lbs less than you were 2 weeks ago. Typical losses on induction are 10% of your total goal - with 20 lbs to lose that would be 2 lbs for you - you doubled it.
With little fat to lose (comparitively speaking) your journey will seem slower and longer, but when you look at it percentage wise you'll see you're right on track. 10 lbs for you is 50% of your goal - for someone with 100 lbs to lose it would only be 10%.
My advice is to follow the plan as written - get on with OWL. You may be one of those people who loses better with a few more carbs, I know I am By increasing carbs with good veggies and a few nuts you'll be increasing the range of foods you eat. The trick with LC is that you must make it a WOL, having more foods to choose from makes that easier. Feeling restricted in your food choices is a sure path to resentment and cheating.
Enjoy your loss and keep up the good work.
