    Ketostix

    Hi

    Ive been using the ketostix a couple times a day, and i only manage to get dark pink, does purple mean you are burning more fat? if so how do i get it to go purple?

    Im sticking to the book to the letter and drinking almost 3 litres of water each day.

            I bought mine in my local Lloyds Pharmacy...I'm sure Boots do them too, or could order them for you!
