Two weeks and I'm in Ketosis!


(Candace) #1

According to the testing strips (yes I know they are not the best, but my blood testing kit hasn’t arrived yet) shows me at an 8.0, which is the next to the last in the purples.

I’m down 6.6 pounds, but the most exciting thing, my fasting blood sugar was 93, and the last sugar I took today was a 98 (115 was after breakfast). My main reason for doing this was my blood sugars, so I’m super excited about this.

I feel ok, but I do not have this abundance of energy I’ve heard of, that will happen when I become fat adapted, right?

Are there signs that will tell me when I’m fat adapted? I know it takes a few months, so I am not looking for it today…

Once again, thank you all for your support and all of your wonderful posts!

For me the energy came later (and frankly I’m still exhausted frequently but I think that is the fault of my children, not Keto)

So it is something to look forward to :slight_smile:

My fasting blood sugar was 86! I’m not going to complain lol
