Ketosis??????

I'm confused about ketosis!
So you loose more whilst in ketosis or does it just stop hunger pangs??
Is it a fat burning process or not and do u need to be in ketosis to get the best loses??

You dont need to be ketosis to lose weight, but while you are in ketosis your body is using its own fat stores to make energy. Which is also why it helps with the hunger pangs and it has an unlimited source.

When you arent in ketosis your body gets its energy from carb stores. We can only store so much carbs (4-5lbs ish). So as we use them up the body tells us to replace them....which is why day 2-3 is so hard.

You could look at it as a more consistant and efficient way to lose weight, that not more effective.
