Default 5 days on Induction and no ketosis

Okay, I'm usually quite strict about staying around 20-30 carbs a day. I've been eating like this since June, though I did take the winter off last year due to major stress.
Anyway, I had a bit of a celebration day for my graduation the other day (Wednesday). I decided not to eat TOO much, but if I'm having a carb day, I'm going to enjoy it.
I had some cake, pizza, and a fair bit of wine. Bad girl, but nothing majorly excessive. Okay, so Thursday morning I was back on induction. I bought a new bottle of Keto Sticks and I have been checking it every day. Nothing. I thought maybe I am drinking so much water that it wasn't showing ketones. So I tested first thing in the morning. Still no change. This is my fifth day on induction, and I hadn't strayed too far to begin with. What's going on? Do you think I messed up my metabloism? Or maybe the Keto Sticks are faulty? I'm getting a little stressed about this one. I've been strictly sticking to less than 20 grams since Thursday morning. Please tell me what you think is up.
Thanks!
