Without belaboring the details, I found that ketostix was the most reliable way I could track ketosis without a trip to the lab.

My bro was diabetic so he had plenty of sugar meters kicking around for me to use. Being an old f*ck and a lifelong carboholic, I reckon that it couldn't hurt to keep track. Over the past decade or so, I have noticed that the old blood sugar spikes higher and takes longer to settle the feck down again after a bread binge, than it used to. The keto sticks produce very interesting results when doing the low carb thing. Even when I'm virtually zero carbs, there are times in the day where I drop out of keto. Maybe it's just a blood dilution thing. Maybe it's my body creating sugary gold out of base protein and fat. Dunno, but it is interesting. Also while being a carbless ne'er-do-well, my metered blood sugar rarely gets below 4. Weird. It's almost as if the human body is a very complicated and somewhat unpredictable meat machine. Stoopid body. I have tried fasting but being a natural born and bred binger, those damned cravings get me showing up at the Circle K at all hours and waking up in an alley the next day covered in Reese's wrappers, powdered sugar and shame. My best success (would that be the same as worst failures?) have come from cutting out the damnable carbules to the best of my ability. I stock up the fridge with meat and veggies, a few apples and strawberries to give my palate a break, and don't worry about calories for the first week. The point is to tone down the carbulicious cravings. After that...the appetite just seems to quit bugging me so damned much. A guy (or at least this guy) can pack away endless portions of 'taters and such, but non carbs seem to have a way of quelling the urge to endlessly distend the grub hamper. So far, it's been over 60 years of this fecking yoyo. One day it actually might work. Here's hoping.
