Hi everybody,
I’m very new to this new trend of diet, started less than 5 days ago.
I decided to try intermittent fasting to help my body kick into this somewhat new metabolic state, I also purchased a blood test kit for the sake of it.
I have been tracking my weight and ketone level occasionally, yesterday (Day 3) I was happy that I got a reading of 1.7 mmol?L (first time I did the blood test.
Now today comes (Day 4), I couldn’t resist my curiosity and tested again in the morning and got a reading of 6.1 mmol/L. That certainly freaked me out a little. I decided to wait till the evening and got a reading of 4.5 mmol/L. From the information I gathered, this is still relatively high.
I want to do well on this diet, but the fluctuation is worrying me.
Is this normal for somebody new to this diet?
