Aw god, I went to have my teeth whitened before the wedding. Sweet Jesus, I've never felt pain like it. It felt like someone was throwing darts into my mouth.
Didn't last 2 minutes!!! I couldn't take the pain at all, it was far too severe for me, I'd never do it again!!!!

Wow! Congrats on the 5lb loss - must feel good 
I never knew teeth whitening hurt - I'm a complete wuss when it comes to pain, especially my teeth (probably flash backs to my braces days) but I'm still quite tempted x

I had mine done last year professionally but I couldn't stick the pain so had to stop. I wanted sparkly whites for the wedding so when it was too sore they suggested a home whitening kit and sure that was just as bad, my teeth were just too sensitive afterwards. Not worth it one bit!!!!

DO NOT DRINK ALCOHOL IF YOU ARE KETOTIC!
Alcohol is a powerful inhibitor of gluconeogenesis. In fact, it forces part of the gluconeogenic metabolic process into reverse. This means that if all the glucose in the blood is being derived from gluconeogenesis then the consumption of alcohol will inevitably cause the blood glucose level to fall. Worse still, the alcohol also stops ketone body production, thus leaving the brain entirely without fuel.
A person who is ketotic is 100% reliant on gluconeogenesis to maintain adequate levels of glucose in the blood. If, under these circumstances alcohol is taken, the person will become disorientated and might lose consciousness, not just from the alcohol, but from low blood sugar. Needless to say, this could be very dangerous, and even fatal.
Alcohol does not have these effects if the glycogen stores in the liver are normal. Under these circumstances the blood glucose level in the blood is maintained by the breakdown of liver glycogen, a process that is not influenced by alcohol. If a person becomes confused under these circumstances it is due simply to the pharmacological effects of the alcohol!

To be honest, I drank last weekend and it so wasn't worth it. I didnt really want it but sure who can refuse champagne!!!
Anyways all that happened was that I was pretty merry after 3 small glasses and woke up feeling like someone had stuck a hatchet in my head. Defo not worth it.
That's put me off, never mind the health implications!!!!
If you can do without it, then I'd say leave it alone.
