hi thanks for that! how do you know when you are in ketosis?

Hi

without testing for ketosis with Ketostix these are some of the things that some people say they experience and I have personally,


* Not having a feeling of hunger
* Funny (metal) taste in your mouth/ breath a bit smelly
* A sudden burst of energy that keeps you buzzing for quite a while sometimes
* Feeling cold, sometimes really cold in your hands and feet
* Feeling a bit "detached" from everything around you, in a positive way

Worth it all IMO when you see the results

Hope some of this helps,

Lacey xx

Wow!!! And a huge well done for getting to day 2.

I knew on day 3 when I checked my wee. You should also get other signs like bad breathe, furry tongue, more energy and the hungar getting easier (not had any of them yet myself though!!) but I know other people have.

Keep going, will soon be weigh in day

piece of cak!!!!!!!!!!!! bite size pieces

Hi
Dont worry about the 8t you have to lose. Break it down into small chunks, small goals and you eill be fine. I started end of Jan 09 in desperation really. O.K I had 1/2 your goal but so what we are all on the same journey some have a bit further to go.
I can honestly say, hand on heart, scouts honour that this has been the easiest plan I have ever followed and I was a fat baby,infant,toddler, teenager, young adult,old adult and now I am 48 so am perhaps middle aged---dread the thought:cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry:
