I'm tying to figure out "modified ketogenic".. basically an elimination of "bad" carbs and sugar for the past few days with an increase of protein and fats. i bought ketostix today and it showed i was in "moderate" ketosis.. is that where I should be?

    Any where between trac and large ketones is fine. Ketostix are fairly inaccurate so you may see a range of results, especially depending on hydration and time of day.

    thanks for your reply!
    what is "trac and large ketones"?
    i've heard the stix arent great, but i thought it would be good to have a visual idea.. even if a "sketchy" one!
