Ketostix: HELP

[Valina]

erhm..
i finally found some ketostix, hard to find over here, and after using it, it turned into a strong pink.

but in the paper it was written that if it turn pink you should talk to ur doc or diabetes physician..

i'm a bit confused...

pink is like 1.6 g/l
Help!!!!

Re: Ketostix: HELP

The pink means you are in ketosis. Congrats!

Ketostix were not created for Atkineers, but for diabetics... which is why it's written that you should talk to your doctor if there are ketones in your urine. Since you know that the ketones you peed come from eating low carb, there is absolutely no reason to worry.

Yay for being in ketosis!

If the stick is changing colour, it's all good You know why it's changing - your body is turning into a fat-burning machine. That's awesome! Keep up the good work!

Congratulations on seeing the 50s that is wonderful.
You are heading for 52 - so maybe time to think about heading for OWL?

I am doing fine. I am on an adjustment - resetting phase so I am back on induction.
