ketosis

[Shay]

Where on the test strips are we aiming for? After 2 full days I tested this morning and already hit the moderate for ketones! Does that mean I am in ketosis already? I remember someone telling me when I did this a couple years ago that ketosis was like being pregnant, you either are or aren't LOL Is that accurate?

Thanks!

Yes, that's very accurate.
You can also be in ketosis, and not even register on the stix...so don't get too wrapped up in them.
Here's a good read on the stix:

They test the ketones that are deposited in your urine. Whether they be from the Fat you've eaten or burnt.
