No ketones in urine anymore.

Question,  I have now been on a ketogenic diet for 41 days. I started out a 320lbs. Now I'm at 303lbs. Things are still going good. Haven't gone over 35 carbs ever. I average 25 to 30 carbs per day. I am no longer seeing pink on my urine test strips. I sometimes see trace and small but mostly negative. Is this common to not see moderate + ketones. I'm wondering if I got kicked out of ketosis somehow. I started using stevia in my apple cider vinegar tea twice a day for about a week now would stevia have kicked me out of ketosis or is it time for blood testing.

  • Hope this helps. Not sure the Stevia would kick you out but, this same guy covers sweeteners in another video. Keep up the good work! 😊

  • From what I understand when you are truly in ketosis, your urine ketones drop. This is because your body is now using them for energy instead of just dumping them through the kidneys.
