Yes.
This happens once you're in ketosis.
But you need to eat some veggies!
And for the strips - use a container for the pee and the quick dip the strip.~Susan

Re: uhmmm. I feel kinda weird, anyone else
Great job. I also started on 08.01.06 @ 235lb. I've been retaining water and I haven't been on the scale. A friend on the job gave me her pee sticks but they are expired. I ordered some new ones and will check when I get my new supply. And yesterday I feld strange. I felt hyper.

Re: uhmmm. I feel kinda weird, anyone else
You're off to a great start!! Congrats!! I have just decided today to start the Atkins diet. I hope it works as well for me as it seems to have worked for everyone else. I cannot wait to feel what you are experiencing right now.

Re: uhmmm. I feel kinda weird, anyone else
I do... that's why I ended up joining a gym... lol
I had to buy the keto strips and get myself tested, because the first week I didn't felt I was on a diet... so I couldn't believe I was doing things right... but then that nice dark purple (and the dissapearing ponds) convinced me
It will only get better, so mantain yourself in track!Comment
