I have been on the Keto diet since Thanksgiving (2 months) and I have dropped 4 pounds. I’m intermittent fasting and down to one meal a day. Trying to eat little to no carbs and under 20 for sure. My body just doesn’t seem to respond. I have a blood ketosis monitor and the last few days I am getting into the 1.4 range finally. From all that I have read it looks like I need to be in the 1.5 -3 range to do anything. I’m just getting frustrated because I felt fine before Keto and my main motivation for doing this change is for weight loss. My mother is 70 and lost 30 pounds over 4 months so I am really motivated to have this work. Added a ketone challenge this last week where I am drinking ketones 2X a day and I moved 2 pounds of the 4 total I have lost. I just don’t know what I am doing wrong. Any advice is appreciated.
Thanks
