You have a couple options to avoid gluconeogenesis.

1. Aim for a ketogenic diet. Lowered protein and higher fat will yield greater levels of fat oxidation. The kicker though is that you're EATING more fat.

2. Eat some fruit (probably your best bet). The fructose will maintain liver glycogen sending some rad signals to your body, like "we're not dying so maintain thyroid support" and keep your body primed for anabolism once you hit your carbing phases. 2 - 3 pieces (netting 40 - 60g of usable carbs) should fit even into low-carb phases of dieting.
