Help!

I'm on my fourth day of IP, and I think I messed up. The Phase 1 plan out line says that you can have dill pickles. We have Claussen sandwhich slice dill pickles, so I had 2 slices. Afterward, I looked at the jar, and it says it containsless than 1 gram of sugar in 2 slices, but sugar just the same. It also says there is 1g of carbs. Is that enough to kick me out of ketosis????

I've been trying to hard - please let me know!

No, that one gram of carbs and 2 of sugar in one day is not enought to kick you out of ketosis. If you think about it, all of the IP foods have some sugar in them. Also the meats and veggies we eat have some natural sugar as well. We are just not supposed to injest any other of the refined sugars. Or add any to our foods. I would just look at the labels of things like pickles, because some of them have "No Sugar Added" and would be perfectly ok on our diet.

Good luck and stay positive. Stress about every little thing is no good for you either. If you follow the plan you should do fine!

I don't think 1 g of sugar will kick you out of Ketosis. The allowed veggies have some natural sugars in them too.

Thanks to you as well. I'm still trying to figure the plan out!

Thanks for your reply!

I've been eating a lot of dill pickles, and am still continually in ketosis, so they seem ok to me !
