Just a couple questions

[claws]

This Thursday will be my 14th day. I have lost 4 lbs. I bought the ketosis sticks this time. Yesterday it was a dark purple and now today its alot lighter but still shows pos. I have not had any diet pop for 2 days and have only drank water could that be why? Also yesterday and today I am so tired! Anyway any input or help would be great. Thanks

You might be tired from caffeine withdrawal. Do you also drink coffee?

The color showed on the ketone strips depends on the amount of water you are drinking, on how dehydrated you are (caffeine can cause dehydration), on how much you exercise, on the time of day when you test, etc., etc., etc. Don't sweat over it. If the color changes, you are in ketosis and happily breaking down fat.

Here is a sticky thread about ketostix: http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.c...tix-color.html
