How long it took you to get fat adapted?
Hello all
I’ve been on keto diet for almost 47 days now and i am getting great results,but my concern is that i still test high positive on keto urine strips and my breath still smells like acetone.i read that after 5-6 weeks the body should get fat adapted and stop wasting ketones in urine or breath,so any ideas please about this?
Can you share your experience how long it took you to get fat adapted and how can u guess?

Hello, it was around one month for me. I never used tests for ketones, but relied on how I felt. The main signs of fat adaptation for me were reduced hunger and increased energy. The timing varies, but keep following your Macros and you should experience soon.

Gina Actually i did feel the energy boost and lack of hunger after around a month too,but as i read it says u should test negative or mildly positive on keto urine strips,so maybe i guess thats not true for all

Thomas DeLauer says it could take 6-8 weeks 🤷♀️
47 days is great! You’re well on your way 😃
