[QUOTE="LucySW, post: 931269, member: 113749"] I echo. I stick more or less to Bernsteinian 30g carb/ day and I've been in mild ketosis for a year. It's not dramatic: in my case doesn't need to be. I know I'm in ketosis from my Ketonix breath meter. I don't get super-high readings - 'moderate traces of ketones,' cf small or high traces - but that's enough to insulate me from low blood sugar effects and I can tick away there all the time. Even a couple of 50g meals and one 70g one haven't knocked me out more than 24 hours. I think Phinney and Volek are wrong BTW about it taking two weeks to get back into ketosis if/when you are bumped out. In fact I don't think you get bumped out. But you won't get anywhere until your carbs are down in the <= 35g/day range. [USER=63791]@diamondnostril[/USER] has the same experience, only more so.
