  • Anyone else have this going on???

    Whenever I go into ketosis - or better yet - after I've been in ketosis, I start getting hiccups ALL THE TIME.

    Like very forceful hiccups that get stronger throughout the day...
    Some days I have them some days I don't...

    (Right now I have them, which reminded me to post this... lol)
    And I had them a couple hours ago... and a couple hours before that.

    Anyone??

    A little update

    I just tested on a ketostix and it was DARK DARK purple. That rocks.
    I love that feeling.

      Well, it shouldn't be a good feeling.

      You aren't properly hydrated.

      What you want is the lightest color possible that still shows trace.

      Ketosis is not a matter of degrees. If it's dark, you aren't drinking enough, and you won't lose as fast.

            I was just looking around eMedicine to see if there was some reason why you might be getting hiccups more and I can't find any but I did find this:

            "A hiccup bout is any episode lasting more than a few minutes. If hiccups last longer than 48 hours, they are considered persistent or protracted. Hiccups lasting longer than one month are termed intractable. The longest recorded attack is 6 decades."

            Six decades worth of hiccups!! That must have been so horrible for that person! At least yours haven't been like that!

                  I get them, too!!! I thought it was just me.
                  I just drink lots of water...they eventually go away within a day or so. They don't stay the whole day. I guess they come and go.
