  • ketosis question

    Hi,
    I am using the ketosis strips to check if I'm "in" or "out". I am currently in the trace-small amount range. My question is...is it true that you are either IN or OUT and as long as you are showing some amount of being in ketosis, then you are burning fat for fuel?

    yep ifyou got them you are making them and burning them congrats no put your stix away and savce your money. you can use the physical symptoms like appetite suppresion, change int he smell of pee sweat and/or breath change in taste in mouth either metailic or swweet., more energy and increase in thirst.
    Check out the ADBB FAQ forum and you will better understand why color don't matter.
    happy low carbing

        My first few weeks (the first time around) the stix changed color very nicely for me. After that, they just simply refused to do anything. I went on to lose 61 pounds without being constantly hungry, though, so I just don't put much store in those things.

          if you want to test how much you needthe stick color to lose weight go eat 20 pounds of butter along with your regular Atkins WOE I promise you will have the darkest stix you ever saw but you will also gain weight. real fat mass weight.
