To achieve ketosis you'll likely need to get your net carbs down to 50 or below. Some people can achieve ketosis on more, but not many. You can still HIGHLY benefit from and also lose weight with "low carb" eating even if you aren't in ketosis, especially if you also limit calories to about 10 times your desired weight. In fact some Doctors who promote low carb or low glycemic index eating do not recommend going below 78 carbs, which is the number calculated to meet all brain glucose needs from carbohydrate sources rather than converted protien sources. Just saying, if you want ketosis you'll likely need to lower net carbs to 50 or below. As for myself, I cannot achieve a measurabe ketosis if I consume more than about 30 carbs. Blessings to you in all your efforts. I admire what you already weigh. I sure look forward to being that weight again.
