Default Carb Addict's "reward meal" question...

Been doing Carb Addicts for a bit over a week, and have lost about 3 lb pretty
effortlessly.
Question about the daily reward meal timing. If I start out my meal with only
so called "craving reducing foods" eg protein and fats, with no carbs, do I
start my timing at the beginning of the meal anyway, or can I start timing when
I start to eat carbs.
This came up today when we celebrated my daughter's birthday. We went out
for a Sunday brunch and planned on doing the cake thing later after we got
home. I ate a low carb omelet, some salad, grilled chicken etc all with
virtually no carbs. However, if I started my timing at the beginning of that
meal, the birthday cake would have come well over an hour later. I simply
considered the brunch to be a large "craving reducing" meal, and the small
slice of cake 45 minutes later to be a one slice "reward meal". BTW-- it's
now 7PM and I'm still not hungry. I can live with this.
