Acetone isn't converted to glucose

This just doesn't seem like a ketogenic diet. MFP isn't accurate

Im not sure too low carbs is the problem after months of keto.

Agree lower fat a bit and up protein. Eating high fat sources of protein will help reach fat goals without overdoing protein. Eating pure fat sources like butter or olive oil helps.


No. This...

Since a lot of your diet is low carb cakes, pizza, cheese, snacks, etc....its likely your over consuming fat calories or calories in general.

charcuterie, biltong

Agreed

Fatty Salmon/MCT oil

I am mostly worried about the OPs ability to calculate calories and their basic math skills. I think this may be the reason why the original keto diet did not work.
257g of butter has 2019...

overly simplified and missing a lot of points. But, it is true that ketogeneic diets rely on more calories being used than stored.

Ive been in ketosis for about two weeks and haven't lost weight either...because I'm not trying to. Im eat enough fat to make sure I am not in a calorie deficit. Calories still matter.

haha me either. If ketosis caused me to function like I do after a few drinks Id be a mess.

Then drink less, get your buzz on the same, and save money on alcohol. Win win

The protein is converted to glucose via gluconeogenesis, preventing ketosis. I unknowingly did this for quite some time

Don't look to studies to understand this...try a basic biochemistry text

I got a blood ketone meter. Last night I was 0.4 and this morning 1.1
Not bad in my opinion.

My current macros
70p/30c/145f
and no more weight loss.
I feel amazing
:)

Why is the carb up necessary? I drink regularly while maintaining ketosis. I also never get hangovers..maybe a slight headache at the worst.
I personally drink hard liquors straight or with sugar...

You can't check insulin levels at home...

i make my own peanut butter, almond butter, macadamia nut butter....

As far as morning lows....your body naturally raises its blood sugar in the morning, called the dawn phenomenon.

Its actually been pretty nice not to have to eat so much protein. It just took a few days to figure out how to get it low enough. I am now eating yolk only omelets!

I get nervous with any...
