Advice please on ketostix and totm

Hi,

Can anyone help me?

I've been on the ss+ for 4 weeks and lost 21 lbs, so doing great.

However, use the ketostix to keep reassuring myself I'm still in ketosis. However, over the if I use one in the evening it reads as though I'm not in ketosis, but in the mo rning it says I am in ketosis.:confused:

However, this week is the totm does this have any effect on ketostix? I've not cheated on the diet and I'm not feeling hungry at all, as I've read you can if you come out of ketosis.

Does anyone have experience of this?? Any advice welcome......
 
hey hun,with all the water you drink during the day it dilutes the ketones in the urine so it wont show you in the pink.you would still be in ketosis though,

Thanks for advice

Hiya,

Thanks for advice, feeling down this week as scales not moving (hopefully due to totm). Makes me feel more positive to carry on......:eek:
 
Yes, it'll be because of the amount of water - I'm just the same so now only test in the morning.

You may be retaining some fluid aswell if totm, so you may find you'll have a lesser loss this week - but then a better one next week!

Good luck.
