Hi all, I have been doing LCHF/Keto since early January and would be interested to know if I've reached ketosis. I eat between 20 and 30g of carbs a day. I am never hungry, I fast every day for at least 16/8 and have been going longer and longer without food - I now just eat an evening meal. I feel bright, energised and have lost my lethargy in the evenings. Would the strips give me a good idea of where I'm at, or should I buy a meter ( I'd only use on and off).
I'm just guessing I'd like to know as my weight loss is quite slow, and I read these amazing fast weight losses. I know everyone is different and I'm loosing and the bg levels are pretty level. I've had a few mid 4s when I'm fasting which is fab.
Thanks as always for any help.
