I'm afraid I don't use ketostix so don't fully undetstand the post. What does sts mean? Sorry I'm a bit of a newb here!
Are you worried that you're not in ketosis? My understanding is that as long as you're only having one exante bar a day you should be in ketosis okay. You are advised not to have more than 1 bar a day as this can put you out of ketosis. Are you following the guidelines with drink etc? I can't think of any reason why you would not be in ketosis if you're only having 2 shakes / soups a day, and 1 bar.

What are you drinking as well?
sts is stayed the same, i'm drinking the same as i always have 4 ltrs a day. i use the stixs in the morning. i'm not in ketosis and they only thing i have changed is the bars, i know they aren't suppose to knock you out but i have no other explanation.
i'm soo upset as i'm thinking why stay on 600 cals to sts.

I can do this!
I don't think your sts has anything to do with the bars. It's just something that happens on this diet as your body sorts itself out. I have been having the bars since day one and if you look at my weight loss in my signature you will see that I have had quite a few sts. Hope this reassures you.

This is thesedamn sticks should be binned. Thrifty tally unreliable. Throw them out! If you're sticking to the plan you'll be in and stay in ketosis simple as that. Even if you did knock yourself out of ketosis it wouldn't impact your losses. You can still lose weight being out of ketosis
Vlcds are like every other diet. There are good weeks and bad. Some weeks you may only lose 1pm or sts it's just one of those things

I was thinking the same as i been having the bars and things slowed but i have found that one days i didnt exercise much i didnt lose even an ounce so each day i am making sure i get the exercise too, and i know that some weeks are slower than others but presevere and we will both get there, since monday i not lost as much as i was hoping but i thinking maybe a big loss may happen over the weekend. But my sticks went to as if i was out of ketosis but i know i been 100% so i just disregarded them.
