Ketostix

Hi everyone, ive been doing Atkins and this is my second week, i never feel hungry, i bought the Ketostix to see whether i am in Ketosis and its pink( the second one on the tube). Does it need to be darker to be in ketosis, or is it as long as its anyone of the range of pinks/purple?

Any shade of pink is fine, although the darker it gets, the more dehydrated you will tend to be!

Yep any is fine, some people are naturally lighter, some darker. If it is purple it may mean that you havnt drunk enough water.. if you are sure you have then dont worry at all. x

Its light pink, not purple, so good news for me, ta everyone x

I'm really lucky as I always show negative or light pink, which probably means others can't smell my breath or sweat

I know I am definite in ketosis though because there is no way I could eat like this before as I would be climbing the walls with hunger. I used to get hungry two hours after a meal, and ketosis is the best appetite supressent in the world!
