Hi Maysea, :wave

Ketone levels can change due to lot's of factors. What and when you ate, exercise and more. I find the best time to test is in the AM.

Remember if the results are neutral it doesn't mean you're not burning fat, ketones are released through the skin and breath too, not just the urine. So the testing strips are a great tool but like scales don't let them alarm you.

What matters is how you feel, how your clothes are fitting and that your following the guidelines of Atkins properly.
