Quick question, I check my Ketosis this morning and had a fairly dark pink stick, tried again just and it did not change colour dispite sticking to ss 100% is it possible i had a dodgey stick or could I have been knocked out of ketosis some how???? Im a little confused!!!

Thanks Tess xx

Hi Tess, welcome

Same thing happened to me yesterday, apparently you can get dodgy sticks, plus if you drink a lot of water you will dilute the ketones, we should aim for a pinky colour because then it shows we're not dehydrated..

Try not to test too often, i do it more than weighing now and get a HUGE buzz from that pinky/purple stick!!! But really if one is SS'ing then it's not necassary..

Hope that helps love x

Morning Angels

Just having a cuppa, son and grandson watching Lazy Town so all is quiet ...aaahhhh

Still feeling fired up and ready for day 4 WI tomorrow so am excited to see what I have lost this week..

Off to work then shopping this afternoon so will catch up on here tonight.. Have a super duper day

 

[abz]

hey there angels. well i feel like utter crap today. i think ss has caught up with me. and i have 9 hours of a 10 hour shift left to go

it's going to be a hard day. still. the abject fear of going wedding dress shopping is keeping me on the straight and narrow. i wanted the cheese last night. you know the 'but it's low carb and i'll stay in ketosis' demon?? that one. there are 15 more days until my birthday (and some celebratory dinner) so i would like to make as much progress as possible by then. also hoping that i will have had my wedding dress fitting by then too so i can stop worrying about it. still. all this stress may burn fat off?

i would like to get the remainder of my weight off but if i have to do it a little bit more slowly over the coming months to save my sanity i don't mind doing that. but it's ss all the way for now!!

Hi Tess
I only checked if I am in ketosis once (day 4 just to ensure I was in k) which I was. I KNOW if I stick to SS 100% I will be in k and would only check again if I had eaten something I shouldn't have done! I would try and stop checking hunny it will only play with your mind if you use a dodgey stick! If you are 100% and drinking the water I would have thought you will be in ketosis. Good luck with your losses

[abz]

i don't think people have had much luck with making the porridge without a microwave... is there nowhere to put one? could you get a cheapie one? you can usually get them from places like tesco or argos for £20 or less.

[tess21x]

Thing is im only there 2 weeks thats it I wont make use of it again!!!

[abz]

ah. then there isn't much point. it might be worth searching the boards because it is something that has come up before.

 

[tess21x]

Has it , I will do. thanks for the help

I honnestly can not tell how much of a god send I think the porridge is, I feel like I have actually eaten somthing substantial. My mom had some left over from last time that she has given me. (thanks mom)
