[QUOTE="Indy51, post: 965218, member: 48386"] Did you test carrots to see their effect on you? I find raw carrots will spike me, but cooked carrots are fine. They're not nearly as carby as other root vegs, eg. 100g cooked carrots is only 5.3g carbs, compared with the same amount of potato at 11.2g and sweet potato at 15.2g. Butternut pumpkin is also lower at 7.5g/100g. Might be worthwhile adding some small amounts back and see how you feel? Unless you have another health condition that requires you to stay in ketosis, I wouldn't stress too much about whether you are or aren't in ketosis - some of the "gurus" out there seem to think the flexibility of cyclical ketosis is healthier for us metabolically. If you're approaching your goal weight, adding a few more carby vegetables might help rather than hinder. [/QUOTE]
