[QUOTE="mike@work, post: 2253025, member: 487115"] Hello there [USER=512253]@mattrix[/USER] ! I'm at this time doing quite the same as [USER=372717]@EllieM[/USER] here above. Low-carbing, and going at more or less constantly on values between 0.3 and 1.8 mmol/L. If you keep your carb-intake low enough, but compensate with fat (mostly) and proteins (normal amounts), then your body will/has to switch to fat as an energy source, and you're soon in ketosis. As long as you take suitable amounts of insulin also, there is no risk for high ketone values. Only problem I had, when I was in deep ketosis was, that I starved. (And that was why I was deep in..., or how should I put it :D). I made the mistake to not eat enough fats, especially as I'm not too keen on drastically increase the amount of proteins, because of some kidney problems... If your ketones disappear, after taking insulin, I think it's mostly because of too little fat, and probably a bit too much carbs still... Let us know, how you proceed... :) Edited only to switch my last "maybe" to a "probably"... [/QUOTE]
