Fell off the wagon just over week ago, now struggling to get back into keto
Did a urine strip test, and only a light pink

It will take some time to get the glucose out of your system maybe. How long were you eating keto?
Just keep at it, a person like myself who has been doing ketogenic lifestyle for years would be back in ketosis in a matter of hours with very low numbers, pee sticks don’t work on me anymore they register negative, need a ketone blood meter to even see the ketones because my body is fully using them and they are not floating around in the blood stream or being excreted through the urine, it just depends on how long you have been doing keto; determines how long it takes you to get back in but I have to eat an awful lot of carbs (over 200) to get kicked out for a good amount of time!
Yeah, I hear you.
I accidentally must’ve fallen off too (a silly mistake I thought the cafe cappuccino’s were mostly coffee with a bit of sugar on top - wrong. They are about 90% milk with a bit of coffee! Bang - 10g carbs right there and then!)
Anyway I’m using a blood analyser, it’s been stuck on 0.3 for the last few days … bit of bummer …
Dr Phinney also says if you’re fighting an infection ketos will go down … so that may also be it.
Hang in there. I reckon we’ll both be find in a couple of days. … I’ve heard the bounce back isn’t instant.
