Ketosis

[ashsleeved 41]

So i'm day 4 into my pre-op diet. And i've gotten in the bare minimum of Protein in. My surgeon said around day 3-4 is when your body enters ketosis. I bought the urinalysis test strips and tested this morning, and when comparing the color on the test strip to the color on the box, I am barely one color up from the actual test strip color. I hope that makes sense.

Anyways- were you guys ever in ketosis pre op? What day did you hit ketosis?

TIA!

I was told you may not see ketosis on the urine strip because it isn't the same as diabetic ketosis.
