I'm on AAM AND due TOTM so feeling really crappy - did a Keto test this morning and stick went just the slightest pink whereas normally is really deep pink - could AAM have knocked me out of ketosis???
Love to see everybody doing so well at their losses but sometimes feel jealous that people are losing more than me, quicker than me, when I have stuck to this religiously. However, I normally give myself a good kick up the posterior and tell myself 19lbs is great - haven't managed that on any other diet.
Sorry for the whinge - I'll be fine soon and by no means am I giving up!!!

Hi hun, sorry to hear you're feeling a bit down. I just want to say that I finished my first aam week on Monday...I loved it,
but I totally came out of ketosis!!!!! I started a thread about it and a cdc said the amount of food I'd had shouldnt really have taken me out of K...but I didnt cheat at all. She also said that another cd'er was on SS for 4 or 5 months and never ever got a PINK reading on her sticks...

but she still lost weight.
It was also my TOTM for the whole time that I was on aam week and didnt expect to lose at all but I lost a staggering 4lb!! I was thrilled.
I had a moan not so long ago about sticking to cd religeously (like you) and not losing my weight as fast as others, even though some of them had even cheated!! How is that fair?? But....I know we all lose weight at different speeds, we all have different metabolisms, so there's bound to be a difference and some of us are more active than others too ( I do sod all ) I also said that I'd never have lost this weight so quick on SW or WW which I'd done in the past and given up after losing about 20lbs or so.
I do hope that you're feeling better soon, TOTM is hard for me as it is but since being on CD I've had 2 totm's and have found them to be even worse than usual
chin up hun, you're doing GREAT !!!:character00238: XX SJ XX
