Of course, eating high-carb meat like hot-dogs and chicken nuggets won't work.

I tested my urine during Atkins and I was either high or medium in Ketones. I did eat a lot of meat high in fat and little to no carbs.

I was able to keep being in ketosis while still eating about 50g carbs/day (Through meat products), while I was doing exercises daily.

Note for others tha urine isn't accurate. You need blood test.
Time of the test matters a lot, I dismissed morning, because it was always too high.

Tested during mid-day and late afternoon and made an average.

It’s accurate enough, at least in the beginning.
