SHIT--Accidently Entered KETOSIS!

[Aston]

Dropped carbs yesterday and it was a rest day ate about 80gms. Today ate about 150gms carbs using ALA both days trained shoulders today. Decided to test my urine with some ketostix cause i noticed my breath smelled like familiar keto breath from back in my old CKD days. Yep positive for moderate kettones. FUCK i dont even want to be in ketosis...lol...Now im debating doing a CKD. My fat intake for today was only around 40gms too and prot at 300gm carbs around 150 or so....yesterday less or carbs and prot....weird...

To CKD OR NOT TO CKD....What to YOU GUYS THINK???

ala cause the ketostick to say you are in ketosis even when are you aren't.

i doubt you enterered ketosis in one day on 80 g carbs and only 40 g of fat.

EXACTLY, although whenever i did do CKD it was very easy for me to enter. The longest iwas ever on it was 14 months i think. Im thinking my body after doing for so long just has an innate abillity to swith into a ketogenic metab. I have done it so many diff ways its mind boggling but i havnt done it in about 1yr or so. I have use humalog many times with CKD and gotten into ketosis within a few hrs after a 48hr carb up and used it under other conditions. Wierd shit...i was sitting here and just smelled that keto breath. I still smell it....

For anyone attempting Ketosis:

If you are truly keeping carbs to 50 per day or less, and are at least moderately active, you are in ketosis whether the strips show it or not.

Activity decreases the number of fractured fats in your urine as they are being used for energy......

Drinking a lot of water will decrese them as well......take a reading first thing in the am for most accurate results....for the record imo - 100 grams a day will put you in ketosis if using r-ala

We have alot of CKD fans here. I went ahead and had some carbs to exit in the morning. When i woke...strips were dark purple and breath was keto fruity. Like i said after soing so much in past and using so many aids, i think my body has become very efficient at switching from a glucogenic to a ketogenic metabolism.

When should you take ALA to get you into Ketosis.

 

[mrzap]

During your carb up meals

i doubt that on 80 grams of carbs in just 1 day u got into ketosis.....

taking in only 80 grams of carbs could definitely get someone into ketosis, esp if they are working out, and using r-ala. i know i can enter ketosis rather easily, esp if i eat moderate carbs and do cardio
