Day 6...

[rebecca02uk]

Hi All,

Has anyone got any thoughts -

I'm on day 6 of SS, did a ketosis test today and only reading 1.5 (small amounts).

What is the general reading for someone on SS.

I know we're all different but surely it can't be much longer until my body goes into Ketosis...

p.s. I am not hungry, feeling fine, no smelly breath (yet), etc etc but really craving proper food.

Help please!

Thanks x

Small amounts is just fine - you're in ketosis.

And unfortunately, even when in ketosis, you'll crave 'proper' food from time to time. I'm on Day 13 today and I could eat a scabby horse... I think it's 'head' hunger, not true hunger. I'm bored, that's the problem.

Maybe it's time to run a nice hot bubbly bath.

Hey Suzie,

Thanks for your help - made me a lot happier

I am off to a Halloween party tonight...

sparkling water and no buffet for me

How are you getting on? not out tonight?x

 

[Suzie_]

Ooh, I wish.

Never mind, X Factor'll be on in a while, that'll help. I've been really really busy the last few weeks and suddenly it's all come to a stop - and I don't quite know what to so with myself, LOL.

Never mind. I'll keep glugging at the water. Hope you have a fantastic time tonight.

I never monitor my ketosis I just know as long as im not feeling hungry life is all good (and i must be in ketosis since im always hungry!)

Im always in the "small" amount on SS but don't seem to be hungry - think its more determination cos I still fancy stuff IYKWIM x

the large amount of water we consume means that small amounts of ketones are fine, if it reads that there are lots of ketones it means we're not drinking enough water and theyre not being dituted down enough. hope this helps xx
