Days 26-28 are complete with attention paid to all of the following:
1) Strict keto meals with 1 or 2 meals a day on non-fasting days,
2) Longer IF (36-48 hour) session during each week, and 1 multi-day IF a month,
3) Reduction of cheese and other dairy products with the exception of HWC or butter, cheese limited to rare occasions on holidays or milestones,
4) Physical activity every day whether it's strictly exercise-based or work around the house,
5) Meditation at least once a day,
6) Further develop mindfulness and focus on a daily basis to truly understand those with different views or perspectives.
Just purchased a new BG/Ketone blood monitoring meter or system as they call it, the Keto-Mojo. While I used a Precision Xtra by Abbott in the past to monitor BG and ketones, the strips became prohibitively expensive, with ketone strips being ridiculously priced. I am in the mode now where monitoring BG is something I do more frequently, and the strips for this meter sell for $0.30 a strip. The ketone strips sell for $0.99 and both types of strips are sold in vials of 50. Early reviews and tests indicate that this meter is very accurate, so I'll have something for regular BG testing, which helps me better monitor how my food consumption impacts my BG. I'll also be able to test ketones a few times a week at a very reasonable price.
