2 days into CKD, No Ketones in urine

[serbyte]

I still havent gone into ketosis.

Im on day two of the CKD diet. I am following the diet exactly. I have done 1 cardio session yesterday, this morning I have still not gone into ketosis even a little bit, so i jogged 1 mile on an empty stomach, later i had my heavy lifting session followed by some cardio. Still no Ketones.

What should I do, I was imagining that i would be in ketossis within the first day.

When should ketosis kick in, and what should i do to get into it already? Is there anything i could do to speed up the process?
Do Ketostix work always?

Write down everything, and I mean everything, you ate or drank in the last two days.

well remember, if your body is efficiently using up the ketones then there will not be enough to show on the stick...As long as they dont show that you have glucose in the stream, I think you're safe as long as you feel that you are keeping a good diet and not eating a lot more protein than fat, cause remember, if you dont take in enough fat, your body WILL convert over the protein into glucose.

Here's my response to the PM you sent me:

***
I would suggest you wait a bit, usually ketosis takes up to 72 hours, so your position on first day ketosis is a bit off.

Your diet might also be a key factor that's lacking..

Basically wait a day or so, especially if it's your first time getting into ketosis, it's the hardest.

By the way, just to point something out for you, you might be in ketosis even though you don't see ketones in the urine. It's a common misconception that people make when looking at Ketosis. There is a difference between ketoanemia and ketonuria; i.e. ketones in the blood vs. ketones in the urine. In your case, you might be in ketosis but the ketones might not show up in your urine (ketonurea) until at least 72hrs +/-.

Why are you on a CKD at such a low body fat percentage? Are you dieting for a show?
