Something like the KetoMojo or GlucoRx HCT (which is currently on Amazon for £15). The ketone test strips are very expensive (about £1.50 a pop) but you won't need to use a lot of them and you might well gain some valuable insights into what's happening in your body - both during your fast and when on a keto diet. It'll also set your mind at ease that Diabetic Ketoacidosis is a non issue for a Type 2 diabetic - double figure ketone levels are needed for that and the most you're likely to ever see is about half that.I can't say whether his recipes are any good or not because I've not got around to trying any yet but you might find something from Headbanger's Kitchen that you can adapt to your liking. Not all of his recipes are Keto mind you but quite a few are. Here's a link to a coconut flatbread he uses in place of other breads.[MEDIA=youtube]-CeqwdEo3JI[/MEDIA]</blockquote>
