How long did it take for the Ketones to show up on the Keto-stix?

I am on a protein sparing diet and have to eat meats, some veggies and lots of liquids. No sugar, no carbs just basically meat. It's supposed to shrink /peel the fat off of my liver, so that surgery is easier. How long has it taken anyone to go into ketosis?
