From my understanding (I'm also still on induction), the answer is sort of yes, sort of no.

Upping your carb intake in 5g intervals is what you do on OWL (ongoing weight loss), after induction. So you <i>will</i> get to a point where weight loss stalls. You then dial back on the carbs until you go below your threshold where weight loss begins again. Once you've obtained the carb level that allows a gradual but steady decline in weight, that's what you stick with for carbs until you reach your target weight.... or something like that.

I also believe it is natural to experience stalls while doing OWL, from what I've read.
