Ok, so I just started the Keto diet 6 days ago, I am type 2 diabetic. When I first started the keto diet, my blood sugar was like 350. I’m on my 6th day now of strict keto and my blood sugar after a meal has been between 220 and 225 (2 hours after) and in the morning it is between 200 and 210. Definitely much better than being in the 300s but the thing is that I’ve been doing STRICT keto, I am consuming way less than 20gs of carbs per day … so my carbs are minimal. I was expecting my blood sugar to be under 100 by now (6th day).
I remember a few months ago, back in 2020… I had started Keto and by the 4th or 5th day, I was already under 100 on a strict keto diet, I gave up by the 6th day though… It was tough to last on it, but now with my sausages and eggs, I actually like what I eat.
I am wondering why I am still in the 200s while not consuming carbs at all … Is that normal ??
For Type 2s, how long did it take your blood sugar numbers to go under 100 while following a strict keto diet ? Please let me know if this is normal to still be over 200 on the 6th day of a strict ketogenic diet
What I eat are scrambled eggs, meat balls and sausages. In the morning I’ll have only one avocado which still keeps me under 20gs
If this is normal, when should I start seeing my numbers go under 100 while continuing to follow a strict keto diet. I am about to complete day 6 of strict Keto.
I have seen a lot of my friends reversing type 2 diabetes completely with keto … I wanna be done with this once and for all.
