Hello and welcome, Big Show ~
I am a bit confused about your comment about being in ketosis for four days. How'dja get there?
We are a support forum for people using Medifast and we do not suggest that our folks use keto strips to test for ketosis. When people use our plan as outlined, there is no reason to test for ketosis and no reason to need to guess whether one is in or not in ketosis - it is a natural by-product of following the program.
As mentioned by others on our forum, Medifast allows lean meat but the meat portions are small, depending upon your gender. Males are allowed 6-7 ounces of lean meat, females 4-5 ounces of lean meat.
Ours is a nutritionally balanced program - not no carb or extremely low carb but a BALANCED protein/carb plan.
Nothing tastes as good as thin feels...
