There are also a lot of plans that don't worry about ketosis at all. In my opinion, it is not necessary for weight loss. The main thing it helps for me is the curbing of cravings. During OWL I find that I drift in and out of ketosis, but it doesn't have any real effect on my progress. I'm sure many on plans that discourage ketosis, or ketosis is an impossibility (CAD) will still attest that a big factor in LC weight loss is insulin control, not necessarily the ketogenic state.
Hope that helps. I'd recommend to enjoy the freedom of OWL and learn what works for you!
