How long does it take your body to become ketosis? I have been following a strict diet, no carbs. I didn't know there was a testing kit. I will have to check this out.. I know they say all the benefits of being in full ketosis, I just know my body and how I ate prior. If I was/am going to lose weight I can't have carbs. I am a vegetarian so I tend to eat heavy with carbs in every meal. This is why I gain weight... Plus I can found out the Dunkin Ice Carmel coffee have 54 carbs, I would at least drink 2 every day for 6 months. Yep packed on the 20 plus lbs fast, before I knew it boom can't fit any of my pants and got my fat clothes again. Dang those Ice Carmel Coffee.. I did look up the low calorie and carbs for all coffee places, they have a few drinks I can still drink. But ... I am staying away for awhile, until I hit my goal at least......  

I started Keto 71 days ago and have lost 27.7 lbs. I'm sure I've lost more, however I also added working out daily which I've gained some muscle. I didn't think I could live without carbs, but as of today I am still going strong and not missing them. It took me 3 days to be in full Ketosis.  

It only took me about 30 hours of fasting with exercise to get into ketosis. Look for Dr. Berg on YouTube. He will tell you everything you need to know about KETO....plus some. 😄 Good Luck! 

Thank you both... not missing them yet!! 3rd week... 

I drink nettle leaf tea all the time,very helpful and healthy 

I'm going to buy some nettle tea this weekend. Reading the health properties sounds pretty good. Thank you Khenthoen for the recommendation.
