[QUOTE="MeiChanski, post: 2114595, member: 503481"] Hello, the internet is your best friend. There are a vast amount of low carb recipes, it's simply googling "low carb food ideas". If your husband is hungry then you're not giving him enough protein or fat to eat. You have to be gentle with nuts - some do have carbs in them, same with beans and lentils. Again please read the labels on food packaging - "of which carbohydrates" on labels. Ketones only happens in type 1 diabetes - where they are insulin deficient, dehydrated and peeing a lot. Ketosis is different, it's to do with a keto diet. He doesn't see much improvement because your family and you are still adjusting and learning. I was high too when I was a few weeks into my diagnosis, through time you learn to manage it better. Again beers are high in carbs, so he'll have to drink occassionally. Theres a few options of low carb beer - [URL]https://www.delish.com/food/g26987069/low-carb-beer/[/URL] [URL]https://www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb/alcohol[/URL] If it is painful to test his fingers, it's either you're not aiming the side of his fingers - ignore his thumb and index fingers or the depth of the lancet is too deep or you're are pushing or pressuring his finger to force blood out, make sure his fingers are warm, or wash them in warm water.
