Right. But you should also be able to tell by your sensitivity to insulin. Say you do cheat even for just a meal. With insulin sensitivity high you're very liable to feel it if you blood-glucose suddenly jumps 10ml/dl or more.
It's funny you mention that because on that same day (my 23rd day on Ketosis), I had a cheat meal (a very large one, my 1st and only carb-up so far) prior to bed time. I didn't feel as sluggish or sleepy as everyone else says they do after a carb-up. I was actually tossing and turning in bed and couldn't fall asleep. Maybe it was the excessive energy or maybe because of the ridiculously large belly i was sporting from all the food. Would this mean that my insulin sensitivity has improved?
And what's even more funnier is that i think the carb-up actually sped up my fat loss a bit. I'm not sure yet, I have to compare this coming's Monday measurements to the last Monday to confirm this.
