  • How long?

    I was in ketosis before I screwed it up this past weekend. I've been very strict these past two days. I was just wondering how long it's going to take me to get back into ketosis and if there was anything I could do to speed it up?

    Are you sure you are out of ketosis?

    Might take 2 days to get back, if you are.

        once your body uses up all the sugar from the carbs you had it will once again burn fats for fuel so you should be back in ketosis by now. however how long it will take your body to build up an excessive amount of ketones not burned up as fuel so they can spill out from your blood stream to your urine in an amount your stix will measure is another matter.

        Keep eating your Atkins and burning your fats for fuel while you do your mandatory daily exercise programs and you should be showing color on your stix soon. You should have the physical symptoms of being in ketosis already.

          It took me about 3-4 days to get into ketosis. You will get back into the swing of things very soon, you'll see.

            Thanks a lot ... it's dissappointing to see the stixs not change anymore... However, I think it will make me not want to cheat again

              If you're eating your Atkins as per the rules of induction, you'll be back in ketosis in a few days no matter what the sticks say. Keep the faith!
