I was wondering if anyone can help me... I think I'm now out of ketosis :-( I have stuck to the diet except for I had some coke today from Iceland and thought I'd be fine as it did not have citric acid in it... I was in ketosis this morning, just tried again now and I'm not. This has to be the issue right?????

The sticks aren't always reliable <--- as according to the sticks I've never been in ketosis (well someone did say that drinking a heap of water can dilute the ketones! Plus my breath is too smelly for me not to be in it!) how much sugar has in the coke? I Don't think it would have knocked you out of ketosis unless you're mega sensitive to sweetness! Try not to panic.. If you suddenly gets major hunger pangs then maybe you're out of ketosis :)
 
Thank you :) you've said the right thing haha!! I'm just a little gutted that's all... My mouth still feels furry and my breath is stinky but maybe that's the stupid coke!! In going to lay off it a little just incase... I've had water and black coffee which I find hard to drink all week and being the weekend I thought I'd have an innocent treat whilst in town! I'm kicking myself anyway as since Monday I've lost 4lb BUT my husband and his friend have both lost 12lb :-( I know they are male but still haha just seems unfair... I wouldn't mind if I had cheated x
 
I know men! It's not fair they lose it sooo quickly! What week are you on? I think you'll be fine... I have a sneaky pepsi max which is a definite no-no but on a Friday it keeps me going! I'm lucky it hasn't affected my weight loss but I know some people are super sensitive and it stalls them! Wait and see what happens at your WI and try not to worry <--- no really as I read somewhere that stress can make you fat/ stall as it releases coritsol hehe ;)
 
Thank you I'm now grinning haha so I should be ok haha!!! I'm doing exante which I have found surprising easy :) and haven't felt hungry at all which is most odd as steves felt ravished haha... Oh well :)

How long have you been on it? And how are you doing?? X x
 
Hehe! That's one thing you can rub in his face if needs be! I've been on Cambridge for 14 weeks and hafe shifted 4 stone 3lbs <--- my CDC stopped doing it two weeks ago so I thought hey ill give slim n save a shot as it is cheaper but gawd the products were awful!!! But thankfully ice got myself a new CDC to take me to goal! I've lost 4 but still have 4 to go!
 
Wow that's amazing well done :) before you know it you'll be your goal weight...
I'm probably one of those people that you hate haha... I only have about a stone to loose. I used to be about 13st and over 3 years I just cut out crap and joint a gym, I got down to 8st 13lb (admittedly because I'm almost 5ft 8 I did look a little to thin lookin back now, but I was happy and healthy). However I stabilised at pretty much 9st 5-7lb! But since may I have shot up to 10st 10.8 (this morning I weighed in at 10st 6.8). I can honestly say that I haven't been eating anything that I didn't before but I cut down the quantity again and I was mostly eating protein!! Even though they are good for you I think almost zero carbing it screwed up my matabolisim.... Does that make sense or not? That's the only thing I can think that's majorly different. It's either that or the fact that recently I have really suffered with insomnia... I just want to shift the extra stone, I thought I was unhappy at 9 and a half stone but compared to now I felt brill haha x x
 
Haha! You're right your so one of those people I hate :D only joking! It does make sense about the almost zero carving but I now understand that I'll probably nay never will be able to go back to eating a 'normal' diet afterwards so I'm going to have to low (not zero) carb forever and ever now!!! Maybe as you haven't got alot to (lose compared to us massive fatties out there!) it'll take you a wee bit longer to shift your stone than if you had stonessss to move! That an insomnia can really mess with your body as well as your mind lol!!!
 
Awwww don't call yourself that. One thing I have learnt in my life is that most (not all) naturally skinny girls my age (20's) are stuck up their own arses... However those who arnt naturally skinny and have to work herd at keeping their figure are much more down to earth!!! Like I said not all of them like it! It just makes me realise which I'd rather be... :) keep going you're doing a fantastic job and your weightloss has inspired me to keep going, thank youuuuu xxx
 
Just done another ketosis strip and its come out quite dark today, but I weighed and it's dating I'm 1lb heavier than yesterday!!! How strange, even more gutted now as I've not cheated at all.. All I can think is that it must just be extra fluid (I'm hoping so anyway) x x

Just seen your post! It does have citric acid in-that's what Sodium Cirtate is another name for! Just make sure you drink plenty water and you'll be fine

Coke zero is ok, as it dr pepper zero, as they contain malic acid. Some people just seem to be very sensitive to citric acid! x

Well luckily it doesn't seem to have thrown me out of ketosis as I tried it again this morning and it's the same as it was on Friday, but yesterday it showed I wasn't in ketosis at all.... Strange how today it's dark pink!! However I was almost 1lb heavier!! I wont be touching that stuff again haha x

I'd ignore the strips too tho hun, they aren't designed for this kind of diet, the results can change depending what time of day you use them, how much water you've drunk etc-they are notoriously unReliable! If you follow the plan, you'll be in ketosis!

Hi guys

If you feel like your missing your fizzy drinks see your CDC and get some summer berry water flavouring and just mix it with fizzy water.. LUSH!!!
 
Haha! Same here I think it's because the diet is sooo restrictive that it's just something alittle different!
 
Definitely, I'm just on my way to sainsburys which is the other side of town haha just because apparently dr pepper zero is only £1 a bottle in there at the moment haha x x
