    Out of ketosis - effects on the scale?

    Just wondering about what role ketosis really plays in this and other VLCDs. I did have a bit of a Google but didn't find much so wondered if anyone here knew. I understand the benefit of ketosis and I know that it means that you're in a state where your body is utilizing bored fat and burning it away quickly. So I was wondering whether that meant if you get knocked out of ketosis, you see slower losses or even gains? Say, for example, you're sensitive to critic acid and it kicks you out of ketosis. Do you just feel the increased hunger etc or will you see a difference on the scale too?

    Motivation is what gets you started. Habit is what keeps you going.
    Obstacles are things a person sees when he takes his eyes off of the goal.
    We would accomplish more things if we did not think of them as impossible.

    Lost just under 3 stone on various diets in 2011-2012.
