    No, Stephie. A lot of things can cause the sticks not to turn purple. You probably burned up the excess ketones at the gym, so there were none left to spill over into your urine.

    So keep on OWLing!

        There is a thread in the FAQs that tells you when it's the best time to test for ketosis. Below is the link to it: http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.c...-ketostix.html

            where do you get your ketostix from??
            i;ve been to Boots and they said they are no longer allowed to sell them without prescription.
            i also went to the local chemist, and they said the same.
